What is Bob Burnquist's net worth? Bob Burnquist's net worth is $8 million dollars. Born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Bob Burnquist, also known as Robert Dean Silva Burnquist, began skateboarding while living in Sao Paolo. He relocated to the United States after high school, and is widely recognized as one of the best skateboarders ever. In addition to winning nine Gold Medals, six Silver Medals, and six Bronze Medals at various X-Games since 1998, he has also received the second highest score in the history of the Games, and has invented numerous tricks of his own. He is the first skateboarder to ever land a fakie to fakie 900, the only skater who has ever gone over a loop ramp with a gap in it, and the only skater who has ever gone around a full pipe, simply by building enough momentum while in the pipe. He has been featured in a number of skateboarding video games, and has a skate park in his backyard that has become legendary with other professional skateboarders. When not skating, he runs Burnquist Organics, the Bob Burnquist Foundation, and Action Sports Environmental Coalition.
Robert Dean Silva Burnquist (born October 10, 1976), better known as Bob Burnquist, is a Brazilian professional skateboarder. In 2010 he became the first skateboarder to land a fakie to fakie 900. This also makes Burnquist the 5th person in history to have ever landed the 900.
Bob Burnquist was born in Rio de Janeiro to a Swedish-American father and a Brazilian mother. He became adept at skateboarding in Sao Paulo. As an adult he emigrated to North America; he holds dual citizenship in Brazil and the U.S.
Burnquist's biggest success to date came at the vert contest at the 2001 X-Games. Before his final run (the last run of the event) he was sitting in second place behind two-time defending champion Bucky Lasek. Burnquist produced a flawless run, including multiple tricks that had never been seen before and, as a result, were unnamed. During the run, commentator Tony Hawk went hoarse and nearly lost his voice while screaming in disbelief. Burnquist was rewarded with a 98, the second highest score ever given in any X-Games skateboarding event, behind only Bucky Lasek's score of a 98.50 the year before.
Burnquist's specialties are in switch stance skateboarding and creating innovative vert tricks. He has always tried to find new ways to make his tricks more creative and more difficult. He has a signature trick called "one-footed smith grind". Burnquist has also been featured in the hit video game Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, and appeared in all of its sequels with the exception of Pro Skater 3, due to license restrictions as a result of his appearing in another skating game, X-Games Skateboarding, during that year. He returned as a featured character in the series starting again with Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4 and has since appeared in all the series' games following that.
In 2004, Burnquist made a guest appearance as himself on the popular TV series, Kim Possible and also won a gold medal in the 2005 X-Games Best Trick vert contest.
