SAN DIEGO – LifeProof, the No. 1-selling waterproof smartphone case brand in the U.S., today announced the addition of three new athletes.^* Top skateboarders Tom Schaar and Lizzie Armanto join BMX mainstay Gary Young, debuting for the LifeProof team at X Games Austin.

X Games Austin kicks off June 2 with the LifeProof Moto X Step Up finals. As an official sponsor of X Games, LifeProof will be on-site to support its growing team of athletes.

LifeProof enables smartphone users to get the most out of their devices with waterproof, dirt proof, drop proof and snow proof cases designed to handle the rigors of an action-packed lifestyle.

Schaar, 16, made history after landing the first 1080 on a skateboard. He was the youngest X Games gold medalist in history with his win in X Games Asia in 2012 and has made 12 X Games competition appearances.

Armanto, hailing from Simi Valley, Calif., found her passion for skateboarding at age 14. She has won over 30 skateboarding awards, including an X Games gold medal in skateboard park at X Games Barcelona.

Young has been a major influence in the BMX world for more than a decade. His drive, style and creativity have earned him four X Games medals in BMX park and kept him near the top of the sport since he broke onto the scene in 2002.
