Speed. Raw power. Man-Child. You’ve heard it all before, but you’ve never seen it like Mason Silva delivers. 2015 will be remembered as Mason’s breakout year when his status as an Element am was made official, followed by a fifth place finish at Damn Am LA, multiple face-melting web edits and the coveted Year’s Best Am Award presented by The Skateboard Mag— all done with time to graduate high school. Sure, last year was a milestone for Mason, but don’t forget his insane part in the 2012 crew flick Disorganized Fun. In 2016, he continues to grow into a full-on mad man. With classic tricks like 360s and wall rides, waist high snaps, high-speed hill bombs, and the technical skill to bring it all together when it counts at contest time expect more greatness to come.
