Over the past six years the PHXAM Contest has grown to be one of the best industry-focused amateur contests. This event is put on in hopes of improving the skateboarding scene here in Arizona and everywhere else and is another way for AM’s from all over the world to be seen and get more exposure. Previous winners have been Billy Marks, Jereme Rogers, Colin Provost, Adam Dyet and Nick Fiorini. Everyone has a great time at the contest, and because of all the continued support from the industry, PHXAM continues to get better each year.
