“The 2026 Monster Army Recon Tour is officially underway. Stop 1 went down April 25 at Clairemont Skatepark in San Diego, and despite the Pro Men’s final getting rained out, the riding spoke for itself.

Monster Energy’s Bryce Tryon earned the Pro Men’s win on qualifying scores, putting down two strong runs to kick off his pro season. Brady Baker (Monster Energy) took second and Monster Army’s Kaden Stone rounded out the podium in third.

In Pro Women, Monster Army’s Saige Thunstrom landed second with a standout run featuring a truckdriver on the step up and a one-handed table on the hip.

The Sport class belonged to Monster Army — Aaden Reed took the win with a perfect alleyoop 540 flair and 360 flip, while Ronan Fazio backed it up in second with a massive footplant transfer and a clean flair barspin.

The Recon Tour rolls on May 30 at Premises Park in Tucson. Stay tuned.”
