Paul Kent (rider)
Location: Calgary , Alberta, Canada

Everyone knows who Paul Kent is - he's a tough guy to miss... His unique style spills over to skating and is most certainly hard to duplicate. As of late he has spent most of his time focusing on long distance push races training with a strict diet and a lot of hard work. Paul and his good friend Aaron are preparing for a trip to Peru where they will be skating over some of the largest summits in the world. Check out raynelongboards.wordpress.com as he describes his travels in South America in the months to come.
