Brian Patch
Brian Patch skates both vert and street events. He was born in Logansport, Indiana. Brian broke his collarbone in December of 1999, putting him out of competition for awhile.
A five-year XG vet, Patch has hit an unlucky stretch recently. He broke his collarbone in December; his company, Clockwork Skateboards, folded in early 2000, and he suffered a concussion and sprained ankle in May trying to break the distance jumping world record.
“I’m a skateboarder! First and foremost! I also like to Snowboard, Moto, MTBike, and travel which I do constantly! I travel all over the world doing skateboard contest and demos. I love my life!” - Brian Patch
“I just love it all. I skate street one day, vert the next. I don’t know how you could limit yourself to one type of skating. I feel that being an all terrain vehicle is really the way to go. I always want to skate something different. Doing that only helps every other aspect.” - Brian Patch
