ORLANDO – Timmy Knuth took fourth place overall in the skate park finals on Sunday (Oct. 19), held at the AST Dew Tour’s PlayStation® Pro, the fifth and final stop of the 2008 season.
The 17-year-old Knuth of Melbourne, Fla. won the Free Flow Tour’s skate park finals last month to earn a wildcard entry into the PlayStation® Pro. After taking second place in the prelims on Thursday, he achieved fourth place in the AST Dew Tour’s skate park finals today. Knuth earned a score of 82.10.
"It was such a great experience coming to skate with all these pros," Knuth said. "Just a great experience. I'm just going to keep skating a lot, doing more contests and hopefully do the Dew Tour next year."
With the fourth-place finish in the finals, Knuth ended the competition just behind top skaters Greg Lutzka, Paul Rodriguez and Chaz Ortiz, this year’s skate park Dew Cup winner.
The four-day competition is the final of five stops of the AST Dew Tour that features skateboarding, BMX and freestyle motocross.
