So this morning I’m scrolling through TikTok, right? And I keep seeing these insane clips of this skater dude PWR Worthy doing backflips off roofs. Wild stuff. Then my brain goes – wait, how old IS this guy? Looks young but also crazy experienced. So I decide to dig into it. Pull up my laptop while chugging cold brew.
The Google Struggle Was Real
First thing I do?Type “PWR Worthy age” straight into Google. Big mistake. All I get are skate videos from 10 years ago and merch links. Wikipedia? Nada. His IG bio? Just sponsors and 🔥 emojis. Even checked fan forums – buncha teens arguing about his coolest tricks, nobody mentioning age. Super frustrating.
Then I remember: gotta search old interviews. Started clicking through sketchy skate sites from like 2015. Found one interview where he mumbled about “started skating at 8”, but still no birth year. YouTube deep dive time – watched 20 minute podcasts praying for clues.
The Breakthrough Moment
Was about to give up when I spotted this comment under a 2021 edit: “Bro started at Element in 2011 age 16?” That math hit me – dude started pro young. Went digging through Element Skateboards’ ancient IG posts. And bam! Scrolled past 2014 throwbacks and found it: their “Welcome 19-year-old PWR Worthy!” announcement post buried under memes.
Did quick mental math: born around 1995 makes him 29-ish now. Story adds up too – turned pro at 16 like the comment said, been killing it for over a decade. Funny how answers hide in plain sight once you know where to click.
- Key takeaway: Social media archaeology beats basic searches
- Pro tip: Always check sponsor pages & comment sections
- Wildest find: That man did a flip over a moving car at 17
Moral of the story? When info hunting, get ready to open 50 browser tabs and develop caffeine shakes. Worth it though – now I can finally shut down those “is PWR Worthy 24 or 35?” arguments in the group chat.
