Hometown: Springfield, Virginia, USA (though born in Thailand) Stance: Regular Patrick Praman is a Thai-American skateboarder known for his technical precision and fearless rail skating. Born in Bangkok, Thailand, he moved to Virginia at age seven, where he discovered skateboarding through his cousin. Growing up near Washington, D.C., he developed his style at local parks and iconic spots like Pulaski. Patrick began gaining recognition while skating and filming with crews across Virginia, Maryland, and North Carolina. After receiving product support from Deluxe brands—REAL, Thunder, and Spitfire—he made the pivotal decision to leave college and relocate to California to pursue skating full time. His calculated yet daring style earned him a spot on the Thailand national team, competing internationally for Olympic qualification. Praman has since dropped standout video parts and joined major trips like Thrasher’s Am Scramble. Now riding for REAL and New Balance, he continues to progress in the professional scene while representing both his Thai heritage and East Coast roots. Show less
