I Santo California

It's an old school-new school battle at XG17

Marisa Dal Santo has nabbed five medals in six appearances at the X Games -- a street skater who is as regular at the Games as black on asphalt. Still, when I call her for an interview the week before X Games 17, the 23-year-old gets chatting, then pauses before asking in her trademark Chicago accent, "Hey wait, is that next Friday?"

Even with solid odds to take home the $50,000 purse, and despite her recent layoff from Black Box Warehouse, where she has worked for years shuffling skateboard orders, Dal Santo still maintains a kind of detached relationship between herself and formal competition. And while her nonchalant attitude toward a possible payday of $50K may surprise the rest of us, godmother of street skating Elissa Steamer understands completely.

"That's the way it should be," said Steamer after hearing the story. "Our lives shouldn't have to revolve around the contests. That's exactly why I like Marisa."

What's not apparent from Steamer's comment is her frequent and longtime domination of women's skate street contests. And with an X Games record of four gold medals, one silver and one bronze to her name, Steamer said she could never forget the contest's date. Then again, it is near her birthday. "Every year, it's always on my birthday -- so it's great, I pretty much can't forget it."

Steamer turns 36 on July 31, leaving herself (the salty vet from Florida transplanted to Northern California) and Dal Santo (the electric youth from Chicago who now resides in SoCal) separated by more than a decade and almost 500 miles. Still, their similar style leaves skate scenesters unable to stop comparing the two. And when they skate against each other this weekend, fans will get to compare them side-by-side to see who's best: In the past seven years, from 2004-10, the skate street podium has featured one of these two women at every single at X Games.

Dal Santo is undeniably Steamer's protégé. And before Steamer's abrupt departure from board sponsor Zero two weeks ago, the two rippers rode for the same beefy Zero team -- a nod to their respective moxie.

"I remember the first time I talked to Elissa," Dal Santo said. "I was really little, like maybe 11 years old, and she talked to me. I met her for real at my first X Games six years ago. I had just turned 18. She introduced herself and she was really nice to me. A few years later, she gave me my first Zero board and a T-shirt and a sticker pack, or something, and she said, 'Welcome to the team.' I have always thought that was pretty awesome.
