Trew’s impressive performance took place during the final competition, where she faced off against fellow skateboarder Lilly Stoephasius. Both the girls were trying to perform the trick as it was a big stage of the finals, and Tony Hawk was seen giving them tips about the trick.

This groundbreaking achievement marks a significant milestone in women’s skateboarding history. As she is the first female skateboarder to attempt and successfully complete the elusive 720-degree trick after Hawk invented it years ago.

The Evolution of the 720 Trick and Tony Hawk’s Influence

The impact of this effortless execution of the trick by Trew was even more meaningful because it was attempted and executed in the presence of Tony Hawk, who invented the trick in 1985. This mind-boggling feat involves executing two full rotations in mid-air without making contact with the ground or the ramp.

In addition to the 720, Hawk went on to invent the even more daring 900, completing two and a half rotations, further solidifying his legacy as a skateboarding legend.
