Grin Reapers Podcast Highlights Mia Kretzer’s Relentless Grit and Dedication on Recent Episode
The Grin Reapers podcast recently sat down with X Games gold medalist, Mia Kretzer to talk about her process when it comes to learning tricks, being the youngest gold medalist in X Games history, skating in front of Tony Hawk and so much more. We’re a big fan of Mia and this was a great look inside the mind of this legend in the making. Take a look:
The clip features some awesome behind-the-scenes footage showcasing the sheer dedication it takes to skate at Mia’s level—a rising star who hasn’t even reached double digits yet! Her progress is impressive, to say the least, and like all the greats, Mia has a few secrets up her sleeve.
Just wait until you see the little debate between Mia and her mom while she’s learning kickflip Indys—it’s a moment I think we can all relate to one way or another. Ha! Seriously, if you haven’t pressed play yet, what are you waiting for?

We’ve had Mia on our radar for a few years now and it’s absolutely incredible to see how far she’s gone from then to now. It’s easy to say „the future is bright“ for a lot of these talented up-and-comers out there, but no truer words have ever been spoken when it comes to Mia.
Skateboarding or not, the mindset Mia possesses can really inspire just about anyone who might be chasing a dream of their own to simply keep moving forward and never give up. It certainly works for her! To say her approach is admirable just wouldn’t be saying enough.

Shoutout to the Ward brothers and Soggybones skate shop in Western Australia, too! They’ve been supporting Mia a lot through this inspiring journey of hers and we’ve always been a huge fan of their shop and all that they do for the local skate community out there.
From competing at Tony Hawk’s Vert Alert alongside Arisa Trew, Ema Kawakami and other future stars, to landing a 720 in front of The Birdman himself, X Games medals and so much more, it’s been quite a ride so far, and this talented little ripper is just getting started. We can’t wait to see what she accomplishes in the coming years. Yeah, Mia!
