Skateboard phenom and MTV star Ryan Sheckler is one of the athletes appearing tomorrow at Journeys Backyard BBQ at Grapevine Mills Mall. There'll be skaters, freestyle motorcrossers, BMX'ers and even live music (including locals the Vanished). Find out everything you need to know about the free event here.
Sheckler is the biggest draw of the event, mainly because, at just 18, he's become one of the most popular pro skateboarders in the world. He's even made a few fans who don't follow skateboarding, by starring in his own MTV reality show, Life of Ryan. The camera's unblinking eye follows Sheck as he deals with family issues, budding romantic relationships and the pressures of his hectic touring and competition schedule.
The young skateboarder took a few minutes to answer some e-mail questions. Read his words after the jump.
