Akwasi Owusu

Hometown: Los Angeles, California, USA Stance: Goofy Originally from Los Angeles and later Fontana, Akwasi was involved in other sports like football and track before discovering skateboarding. Raised in a traditional Ghanaian immigrant family, his parents initially envisioned stable career paths for him, like law or medicine, but Akwasí’s passion for skateboarding prevailed. After gaining sponsorship from Active Ride Shop, he eventually joined the ASICS skate team through Kaspar Van Lierop, furthering his skateboarding career. Alongside skating, Akwasí pursues modeling and artistic ventures, such as 3D printing and jewelry casting. His video parts with Sci-Fi Fantasy have earned him recognition in the skate community. Despite being relatively new to the world of sponsored skating, his innovative style and dedication to pushing boundaries in both skating and art are making him a standout figure.
