Lizzie Armanto & Alex Cruysberghs Reveal Wedding
We’d like to extend a big congratulations to Lizzie Armanto and Axel Cruysberghs on their recent nuptials. While a celebrity wedding isn’t a first in skateboarding, this is the first pro husband and wife duo that we can recall since Primo and Diane Desiderio way back in the ‘80s. The family that skates together stays together. Check the wedding announcement below.

Watch ‘TUANY’ Skate Video Featuring Sebastien Cao and Theo Meas
Watch Sebastien Cao and Theo Meas as they shred in the streets of South America.
The video was filmed during three months of backpacking from Mexico to Costa Rica, crossing Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, and Nicaragua.
Making it even more impressive (and a reason needs to come calling), “TUANY” was entirely filmed, edited, and animated using an iPhone with Theo and Sebastien doing the editing themselves (and some of the filming too).
