Bucky Lasek (X Games Gold Medalist, Rally Cross)

Bucky Lasek is a professional skateboarder and rally driver. As of 2016, Lasek has won 13 medals at the X Games, including ten gold medals, and is one of only two vert skateboarders to have won three X Games gold medals consecutively. Lasek is also one of only three athletes to compete at every X Games since the series' inception in 1995.

In 2012 he joined Subaru's Rallycross team, competing against the likes of Sebastien Loeb, Rhys Millen, Tanner Foust, Ken Block, Travis Pastrana, Brian Deegan, Sam Hubinette, and Liam Doran.
