Top 10 Riders of All Time: #10-Grant DePhillips

     The first rider to crack the VT Wake Top 10 Riders of All Time list is current President, Grant DePhillips. The Junior Industrial Systems Engineering major from Pennsylvania has made huge strides in his riding since coming to Virginia Tech. Grant is a powerful rider, boasting huge raley-based tricks and several different inverts that he boosts well into the flats. Grant rides the Liquid Force Trip, which complements his riding style well. He is one of the few (maybe the only) VT riders to rock a classic HS Frontflip, and has recently added some 540s to his quickly growing bag of tricks. Expect Grant to make some noise in competitions in the coming years. If his current progression keeps up, it is very likely that Grant will climb further up this list in the future.
