ldquoACTIONrdquo OR ldquoXrdquo SPORTS ARE MOVING FASTER THAN ANYONE CAN

FATHOM

SO FAST THAT THE WORDS ldquoACTIONrdquo AND ldquoXrdquo ARE NOT EVEN

APPROPRIATE ANYMORE

THEYrsquoRE CONSTANTLY EVOLVING MOVING FORWARD AND

REINVENTING THEMSELVES AND THEYrsquoRE TAKING THE YOUTH WITH

THEM

THEY OPEN UP OPPORTUNITIES IN AN ENTIRELY UNIQUE MARKET AND

ITrsquoS GROWING EVERY DAY

YOU CANrsquoT JOIN THEM OR CHANGE THEM BUT YOU CAN GET INTO

THEIR SLIPSTREAM AND BE PULLED ALONG FOR THE RIDE

THE INTERNATIONAL OLYMPIC COMMITTEE HAS RECOGNISED THE

FUTURE HAVE YOU

JUMP ON BEFORE ITrsquoS TOO LATE

Markus is a veteran action sports eventeer amp birthed the UltimateX concept over a decade ago with the vision to grow mass participation in the codes of sport he fell in X with as a kid

Markusrsquo passion for the UltimateX brand amp Action Sports on the whole results in events that far surpass budgetary constraints as well as the imaginations of partners athletes and the thousands of spectators he has entertained over the years

Markus leads the production and programme concepts teams and drives innovation and sector research for Action Sports Africa

FORGET

FIRST

For over 12 years Ultimate X has been the guitar solo splitting the deafening silence around organised action sports contests across the African continent This team were then the obvious choice to partner with global organisers in staging the Kimberley Diamond Cup with skateboardingrsquos largest prize purse to date Ultimate X continues to bring together all action sports and disciplines while growing the scene across Africa

We are the appreciative skaters banging their boards on the coping of ignorance about the sports we love Sports whose difficulty is often only surpassed by the difficulty of getting them to the wider audience they deserve

WE WERE THE GROMS WITH A DREAM OVER A DECADE AGO

WE WERE ALWAYS DIFFERENT AND LOVED IT IN THE MARGINS

WE WERE THE GUYS CHASED BY SECURITY GUARDS FOR DOING WHAT WE LOVED

WE WERE THE BAD ELEMENT A PHRASE COINED BY A SOCIETY WITH TOO MANY RULES

WE WERE THE KIDS WHO DIDNrsquoT KNOW THE RULES OF WHAT WE WERE MEANT TO BE SO WE COULDNrsquoT HELP BUT DO IT FOR OURSELVES

WE WERE THE ONES WHO COULDNrsquoT SEE LIMITS ONLY THE INFINITE POTENTIAL OF WHAT COULD BE

WE WERE THE ADULTS WHO HELD ONTO OUR CHILDHOOD DREAMS AND MADE THEM HAPPEN

WE WERE THE FIRST OF OUR KIND

THEN WE WERE THE ONLY SHOWCASE FOR ACTION SPORTS IN ALL THEIR FORMS

THEN WE WERE NOT ONLY THE ONLY ONE BUT THE BIGGEST TOO

WE WERE THEN WE ARE NOW AND WILL BE THE FUTURE

AND WE ARE LOOKING FOR SOMEONE TO JOIN US ON THE NEXT STEP INTO THE GREAT BEYOND

BECAUSE NOW WE ARE OLYMPIANS

YEAR XIIv MANIFESTOYEAR XIIv

The official utterance to the qualification for the Paris Summer Olympics began in February 2020

and will culminate in a formal series

From being the first event to showcase action sports culture in SA twelve years ago ULTX is

now in a prime position to be the official path to hopeful African talent to become Olympic athletes

The answer is an emphatic ldquoYesrdquo Thalente

was given his first skateboard around age

10 and with it he found something he could

get good at Something to focus on instead

of kicking around the streets all day long

In his own words ldquoIt changed the way I

saw the worldrdquo Being good at something

makes us all feel like we are a valuable

member of society and that we have

something to contribute Itrsquos empowering

But skateboarding alone doesnrsquot save kids

The older generation or more established

skaters need to guide and encourage

the kids help them learn lifersquos lessons

After I read this question I asked Thalente

something I had not before I asked if he

thinks he would have been interested in

the opportunity to learn to read and write

had he not skateboarded or developed his

passion for it He replied ldquoOh no I would

have been running around sniffing glue you

wouldnrsquot have been able get to merdquo

This is the path to the greatest

celebration of sport and humanity on the

planet and being onboard as sponsor

affords phenomenal levels of local and

international exposure as well as being a

facilitator to wonderful success stories like

Thalentersquos

The opportunity to activate across sports

youth development infrastructure

destination and brand as the profile of

events like ULTX rise globally is rare and

underpriced

FIRST

For over 12 years Ultimate X has been the guitar solo splitting the deafening silence around organised action sports contests across the African continent This team were then the obvious choice to partner with global organisers in staging the Kimberley Diamond Cup with skateboardingrsquos largest prize purse to date Ultimate X continues to bring together all action sports and disciplines while growing the scene across Africa

We are the appreciative skaters banging their boards on the coping of ignorance about the sports we love Sports whose difficulty is often only surpassed by the difficulty of getting them to the wider audience they deserve

WE WERE THE GROMS WITH A DREAM OVER A DECADE AGO

WE WERE ALWAYS DIFFERENT AND LOVED IT IN THE MARGINS

WE WERE THE GUYS CHASED BY SECURITY GUARDS FOR DOING WHAT WE LOVED

WE WERE THE BAD ELEMENT A PHRASE COINED BY A SOCIETY WITH TOO MANY RULES

WE WERE THE KIDS WHO DIDNrsquoT KNOW THE RULES OF WHAT WE WERE MEANT TO BE SO WE COULDNrsquoT HELP BUT DO IT FOR OURSELVES

WE WERE THE ONES WHO COULDNrsquoT SEE LIMITS ONLY THE INFINITE POTENTIAL OF WHAT COULD BE

WE WERE THE ADULTS WHO HELD ONTO OUR CHILDHOOD DREAMS AND MADE THEM HAPPEN

WE WERE THE FIRST OF OUR KIND

THEN WE WERE THE ONLY SHOWCASE FOR ACTION SPORTS IN ALL THEIR FORMS

THEN WE WERE NOT ONLY THE ONLY ONE BUT THE BIGGEST TOO

The answer is an emphatic ldquoYesrdquo Thalente

was given his first skateboard around age

10 and with it he found something he could

get good at Something to focus on instead

of kicking around the streets all day long

In his own words ldquoIt changed the way I

saw the worldrdquo Being good at something

makes us all feel like we are a valuable

member of society and that we have

something to contribute Itrsquos empowering

But skateboarding alone doesnrsquot save kids

The older generation or more established

skaters need to guide and encourage

the kids help them learn lifersquos lessons

After I read this question I asked Thalente

something I had not before I asked if he

thinks he would have been interested in

the opportunity to learn to read and write

had he not skateboarded or developed his

passion for it He replied ldquoOh no I would

have been running around sniffing glue you

wouldnrsquot have been able get to merdquo

This is the path to the greatest

celebration of sport and humanity on the

planet and being onboard as sponsor

affords phenomenal levels of local and

international exposure as well as being a

facilitator to wonderful success stories like

Thalentersquos

The opportunity to activate across sports

THALENTEBIYELA

The answer is an emphatic ldquoYesrdquo Thalente

was given his first skateboard around age

10 and with it he found something he could

get good at Something to focus on instead

of kicking around the streets all day long

In his own words ldquoIt changed the way I

saw the worldrdquo Being good at something

makes us all feel like we are a valuable

member of society and that we have

something to contribute Itrsquos empowering

But skateboarding alone doesnrsquot save kids

The older generation or more established

skaters need to guide and encourage

the kids help them learn lifersquos lessons

After I read this question I asked Thalente

something I had not before I asked if he

thinks he would have been interested in

the opportunity to learn to read and write

had he not skateboarded or developed his

passion for it He replied ldquoOh no I would

have been running around sniffing glue you

wouldnrsquot have been able get to merdquo

This is the path to the greatest

celebration of sport and humanity on the

planet and being onboard as sponsor

affords phenomenal levels of local and

international exposure as well as being a

facilitator to wonderful success stories like

Thalentersquos

The opportunity to activate across sports

youth development infrastructure

destination and brand as the profile of

events like ULTX rise globally is rare and

underpriced
