This year, annual event doubles as an Olympic qualifier. The extreme sport will make its Olympic debut next summer during the 2020 games in Tokyo, Japan.
One of those Olympic-hopefuls is Sam Narvaez from Long Beach. The 26-year old sees positive changes in skateboarding culture.
"There are so many women out there who nobody knows about and they're awesome and they shred," said Narvaez. "It's weird; we've always been here, but people are starting to open their eyes and accept it."
The 2019 Dew Tour takes place on June 13 through 16 at the Long Beach Convention & Entertainment Center. For more information on the free event, visit their website.
