Nels Rosen

Not just another grom on the rise, Nels Rosen is THE grom on his grind and people are taking notice. Not only has young Nels, aka Gnarls, left an impression on the greater Pacific Northwest (hailing from Seattle proper) but as of later he has gone nationwide and taking names at contests all over the country. He’s not just another contest kid, either. No, Nels is regularly in the streets taking on man-sized handrails without hesitation (rain or shine!). That’s what it takes to earn the number of stickers on his board, though. The industry sees what he’s doing and is in full support. If you spot him in the wild, give him a shout and say hello—he's also as well mannered as they come and makes friends everywhere he goes.
