POPULIST 2015 — Luan Oliveira

Luan doesn’t slow down. This year, the Brazilian master of fancy footwork broke through in a big way by finally achieving the top-echelon contest standings that have eluded him in the past: 1st place showings at CPH Pro, Tampa Pro, Street League New Jersey Crown, and Street League L.A., in addition to a strong showing at X-Games and Kimberley Cup (2nd place). Cap it all off with his PUSH series, “Mic Check” part, BATB, and blistering second-place Run & Gun run, and you understand why he became 2013’s Populist. Vai Luan!
