Red Bull Solus returns to challenge the top skateboarders

Tuesday, September 28, 2021
From the mind of Ryan Sheckler comes the second edition of Red Bull Solus, a digital skate contest challenging 17 of the world’s leading men’s and women’s professional skateboarders competing to deliver the best continuous line from the SC Sandlot, Sheckler’s private skate park in San Clemente, California.

All-digital competition format returns with a new division and expanded athlete lineup

“Red Bull Solus is one of the most mentally and physically challenging contests in skateboarding,” said Sheckler. “Last year, everyone was put to the test and had to conquer the unknown of skating alone and against themselves. This year, we expanded the lineup and invited more of the top skaters.”

For the second year in a row, each skater was invited for a one-hour solo session at the SC Sandlot to film their single-best continuous line. The video entries will debut tomorrow, September 29, on RedBull.com/Solus and across Red Bull Skateboarding social media channels over the coming weeks.

The name Solus, translated from its Latin origin, means alone or unaccompanied, which reflects the unique solo competition format of Red Bull Solus. This year, Red Bull Solus welcomed seven additional skaters in a new division.

“This lineup is stacked with talent and I’m excited to see the variety of lines from all of them,” said Sheckler. The two main principles of this contest are; how mentally fit are you? How much torture can you put your body through for one hour? And how physically fit are you? I think Red Bull Solus can change the dynamic of competitive skateboarding.”

Among the 17 entries are three-time X Games gold medalist Sheckler, who is defending his home skate park against Olympic standouts Felipe Gustavo, Alexis Sablone, Candy Jacobs as well as a host of other top athletes including Jamie Foy, Nora Vasconcellos, Lucas Rabelo, Leandre Sanders and CJ Collins.

A three-person panel of industry professionals, Vanessa Torres, Jason Rothmeyer and Mike Sinclair will judge Red Bull Solus, assessing style, progression, and creativity. Along with the winning prize purse, the athlete will also receive $2,500 to donate to a local skate shop or foundation of their choice. Fans will also have the opportunity to vote for their favorite line and award one skater from each division the fan-favorite award, exclusively on RedBull.com/Solus.

Final results are set to be revealed in October with an announcement on The Nine Club’s “Stop and Chat,” a digital platform dedicated to the world of skateboarding, RedBull.com/Solus and on Red Bull Skateboarding’s YouTube channel.

About Red Bull Solus

Red Bull Solus is an all-digital professional skateboarding contest that challenged 17 of the world’s top skaters to deliver their best line at Ryan Sheckler’s private park, SC Sandlot, in San Clemente, California. The pro skateboarders were invited to the park for hour-long solo sessions to develop and run their best continuous line for video cameras. A panel of judges scored the video runs to declare the winner of Red Bull Solus, awarding them a prize purse along with a $2,500 donation to the skater’s designated skate shop to support the struggling retail sector.
