2024 Rockstar Energy Open Skateboarder

Nels Gnarls 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, 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. But he’s not just another contest kid, either. No, Nels is regularly in the streets chomping down full grown  man-sized handrails without hesitation. 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, and now that he’s officially a teenager you can expect to see a lot more of him yourself. In fact, if you spot him (likely with a spotted hairstyle) 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.
