Max Capps is currently ranked 2nd in Men’s Downhill Skateboarding for the United States, and is part of a dynamic line up of skaters who will be competing at the World Championships in Italy, this week.
Max was born in the Bay Area of California, raised in Orange County. His introduction to skateboards came when his friends asked to custom shape their skateboards in his dad’s garage shop. A few months later he was bombing hills and signing up to race.
Skateboarding became a platform for Max to tap into his fabricator roots; “if you can’t buy it, make it”. As the years went on, Max found himself at the core of the skateboard and car racing scenes.
Max has competed in over 300 downhill races, works on GT3 sports cars, and is still customizing boards for those interested. His work has seen himself and others rise to the top of the podiums in recent years.
Maxwell Capps is the 2nd ranked Men’s Downhill Skateboarding Athlete qualified to race in the upcoming 2024 World Skate Games in Italy. If you would like to support Max and the USA Team, Donate Today.
