X Games 17 Results: Raven Tershy Claims X Games Gold in Skateboard Park

X Games 17 Results for Skateboard Park

X Games rookie Raven Tershy took home his first gold medal in the X Games when he won the skateboard park event.

Tershy knocked off some skateboard veterans including Pedro Barros and Andy Macdonald to take home the gold medal.

After the event, Tershy spoke with ESPN,

I had no idea I'd already won. Everybody was ripping. I'm stoked. I wasn't expecting this. It was a great time.

Not many people expected Tershy to win the event, even though he was coming off of a victory at the 2011 Copenhagen Pro Bowl Jam in June as noted by ESPN.

Here are the full results from Skateboard Park:
