Greg Lutzka (born April 20, 1984 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin) is a professional skateboarder. His stance is goofy.
For skating in every major contest and having a laundry list of major sponsors, Greg Lutzka doesn’t seem stressed in the slightest. As we discussed his recent projects with K-Swiss and his newest sponsor Jose Cuervo, Lutzka continually ended up back at his original thought, ‘I really just skate,” implying that everything else is rather secondary. His laidback style on the board is definitely an extension of his temperament off the board, as amidst all the sponsors and contests, nothing really gets too far under his skin. Greg is a rare breed of skater, who hasn’t caught too much flack or been pigeonholed just as a contest skater like many have in the past. In the end he just skates, and that’s the formula to his success. I caught up with him before heading out to Long Beach to meet up with Hoops, Decenzo, Sheckler and Dyet. Always laid back and down to earth, Lutzka filled me in on Jose Cuervo, Tampa Pro, his form of madness and what 2011 will deliver.

Greg Lutzka (born April 20, 1985, in Milwaukee, Wisconsin) is a professional skateboarder.
Originally from "Beer City" USA, he grew up in Milwaukee skateboarding where he could skate 10 to 15 street spots a day without the hassle of getting kicked out or much traffic. While traveling to various countries he progressed as a professional skateboarder. With the encouragement from his mentors and others in the industry he moved to Southern California at the age of 18 to progress further and follow his passion and career.[citation needed]
Lutzka started out riding for Beer City Skateboards. After moving to Tampa he was discovered by Al Partanen. He was then sponsored professionally by Illenium Skateboards. In late 2003, he left Illenium to ride for Rodney Mullen's new skateboard company, Almost Skateboards.[citation needed]
Lutzka is a technical skater, who likes to incorporate kickflip combos into his runs - runs that usually seem to hit most everything on the course. He is well known for his 270 back lipslides and Frontside 360 Kickflips.[citation needed]
Lutzka has been featured in countless skateboard and urban magazines, has parts in the Almost-Round 3, Oakley-Our Life, and various other skateboard videos. He recently completed the Globe-United by Fate 4 that features skate spots from his hometown and all around the world. He had a cameo in the movie Accepted, has been featured on different tv shows, and is also working with Lil Jon on all kinds of projects. In addition, this past season at the Southside Skatepark in Houston, TX, he donated his $2,500 in contest winnings to the Make A Wish Foundation.[citation needed]
Greg appears to be one of the most laidback skaters on the street scene. He doesn't get bummed when he doesn't do well, but that's rare -- he has won Tampa Pro three times (2006, 2008, 2009) and has three XG Street medals (2 silver, 1 bronze). Now he dedicates his days off from skating to another aspect of skate life: designing clothing, running the team and working on ad campaigns for K-Swiss.
In Summer of 2009 Lutzka told Transworld Skateboarding Magazine that he was spear-heading the new K-SWISS Skate Shoe company. He is currentally working on designing new skate shoes for K-Swiss and a release date is soon to come .
