Brighton Zeuner





Dude? Was That a Girl

 By: Addison

Did you know that Brighton Zeuner is sponsored by Vans, Bones Wheels, Skeleton, Mfg, and many more. That is another reason I think Brighton is awesome. Let me tell you more Brighton is thirteen years old and Brighton was born on July,4th, 2004 in Encinitas CA. Brighton also has a vert ramp in her backyard that all the pros come and use. Brighton's older brother inspired her to start skateboarding. She started to skateboard at age 4, then at age 8 she decided to skateboard competitively. She got recognized when she joined the OG Betty skateboarding team at age ten. Brighton won the 2015 girls vans combi contest. Brighton just missed the podium in Austin, she got 4th place. At age 11 she was the youngest person ever to get invited to xgames. Brighton is the youngest women ever in xgames history to win gold, she won gold on July 5th, 2017. She won gold in the park skateboarding finals. She won xgames gold the day after her birthday. Brighton inspired me to skate more and don't be afraid to go big.
