Over the past five years the PHXAM Contest has grown to be one of the best industry-focused amateur contests. Some of the past winners have included Billy Marks, Jeremy Rogers, Colin Provost and Adam Dyet. This event is put on in hopes of improving the skateboarding scene here in Arizona and everywhere else. Everyone has a great time at the contest, and because of all the continued support from the industry, PHXAM is another way for AM’s from all over the world to be seen and get more exposure. With a new location this year it just keeps getting better.
