XX Inc. is pleased to announce that Rob Turman, Chase Turman and Tom Whalen have been added to a newly created International Team as part of our goal to unite riders in North America. These riders all proved their commitment to the sport of inline boarding by making the long trek up from the US to Top Challenge in Montreal earleir this month.

Chase Turman put on quite the skating demonstration at Top Challenge creating huge leads for himself in nearly every heat and finished a very respectable 7th out of 20 competitors. This was no small feat, considering Chase is only 16 years old! His dad, Rob, finished in a tie for ninth, despite crashing hard early on and separating his shoulder! Props for riding on Rob! Tom Whalen was a virtual unknown in the Dirtsurfer world until Top Challenge, but surprised everyone, grabbing fourth place on his GP!

Each of these riders have definitely earned their spots on the XX Inc. website. Check out their bios via the links below:
