Professional Skateboarder | Bucky Lasek

Charles Michael "Bucky" Lasek (/ˈleɪsɪk/ LAY-sik; born December 3, 1972) is a professional skateboarder and rallycross driver.

Professional skateboarding

Born in Baltimore, Maryland, U.S., Lasek started skateboarding at the age of twelve, shortly after his bike was stolen. After entering amateur contests, he was quickly noticed by Powell Peralta talent scouts in 1987. Powell sponsored Lasek, and he made his video debut in the fourth Bones Brigade video, Public Domain (1988).[citation needed] Lasek attained professional status with Powell in 1990; but, by this time, skateboarding, and vert skateboarding (Lasek's discipline) in particular, began to lose popularity and Lasek's career waned. After vert skateboarding was included as part of the X Games by ESPN in the mid-1990s, Lasek's career was revived.[citation needed] A move from Baltimore to San Diego in the summer of 1998, with his family, helped Lasek's career further.[citation needed] As of May 2009, Lasek owns a backyard concrete skateboarding bowl named "Lasekland".

Professional Racing

In May 2012, Lasek was one of three drivers selected by Subaru Rally Team USA to compete in the 2012 Global RallyCross Championship. Lasek continued with the team earning several 2nd and 3rd place finishes through his career with Subaru. He left the team after the 2016 season.

Video game appearances

Lasek was a playable character in the first five games in the Tony Hawk series: Tony Hawk's Pro Skater through Tony Hawk's Underground.

Film and television

Lasek made a cameo in the low-budget 2003 movie Haggard, in which he hands a skateboard to Bam Margera while he runs from the villain Hellboy. He appeared in MTV's Viva La Bam and the music video for P!nk's single "Raise Your Glass". He served as a stunt double in the 2003 movie "Grind".

Personal life

As of June 2015, Lasek resides in Encinitas, California, United States with his wife Jennifer (m. September 1996) and their three daughters.
