GRC Welcomes Greg Lutzka To The Team

Emily Behnke

Posted on August 07 2019

Grassroots California is excited to welcome professional skateboarder, Greg Lutzka, to the team! 

Greg is known for his technical skills that have won him countless contests which include: X-Games (2x Gold medalist), The Maloof Money Cup, Multiple Dew Tours, Multiple World Cups, and he is also the only skater, to date, that has won the highest respected contest in the industry, 3 times, at Tampa Pro. Greg has gained a reputation as one of the hardest working and most motivated skateboarders in the industry.

 

LIST OF GOLD METALS:

In 2017 we had the opportunity to collaborate with Greg on his Good Livin clothing line. This was the start of our wonderful relationship. 

Come 2019, Greg has taken on his newest endeavor; partnering with Grassroots California and creating his newest clothing line. This line of limited edition hats and apparel is targeted to release on Thursday, August 8th. This fully packed collection offers an array of hat styles, short-sleeved button-ups, hybrid street or swim trunks, and more!

  

  

We are excited to see him repping our merchandise while riding in competitions all over the world! Greg is our one and only sponsored skateboard rider and we are thrilled to show you our brand through his eyes.

We hat the opportunity to pick Greg's brain in a little interview. Check out what he had to say! 

  • When did you start riding and when did you start competing? What drove you to pursue skating? I started skateboarding when I was 8 years old and I entered my first contest when I was 15 years old. I grew up playing ice hockey and after some of my teammates introduced me to skating, I realized that was my passion.

  • What prompted you to take your game to the next level? How many hours do you dedicate to your sports now? After winning several competitions I realized I wanted to make this my career so I moved to Southern California to follow my passion for skateboarding. I dedicate everyday of my life to skateboarding.
  • What was your most intense fall or injury? What happened? Why'd you send it? Where did that motivation come from? One of my worst falls was at the Hollywood High 16 stair hand rail where I was filming a video part for Almost Round 3. I separated my shoulder and broke my collar bone which led me to be out of skating for about 8 months. I was inspired to film this video part from Rodney Mullen.

 

  • What was your favorite gold metal win? Why? The Money Maloof Cup in New York City was my favorite win. It was the biggest prize purse at the time.

 

  • How would you describe your fashion style? I’m laidback and wear pretty much whatever I’m feeling at the moment. I love my hoodies.

 

  • Fashion in extreme sports must be as functional and comfortable as is it stylish. What are some of your staple, go-to pieces, both on and off the board? I enjoy rocking my grassroots t-shirts and hats, they are really comfortable and always have great designs.

 

  • How would you describe your style? What are some of your favorite brands, accessories, and collections? I enjoy wearing different styles of hats such as beanies, snapbacks and fedoras.

 

  • When and where did you find out about Grassroots California? I found out about Grassroots while I was snowboarding in Colorado and instantly fell in love with the Grass Roots movement.

 

  • What made you drawn to the brand? I really liked the creative designs of the Grassroots brand and how they allow people the opportunity to express themselves through fashion.

 

  • What was the inspiration for your 2019 GRC line? For my 2019 line I wanted it to reflect summertime and good vibes. I really liked the birds of paradise design and it really set it off.

 

  • If you could give one piece of advice to a young skateboarder or aspiring entrepreneurs, what would you tell them? Never giving up is the most important thing to remember. Working hard, staying true to yourself and being creative are all things that helped me follow my dreams.

 

Photo credit goes to Greg's good friend, Andrew Durso. These two have an amazing chemistry and it really shows through their images created together. Make sure to check out Andrew's other work HERE!
