Peter Ramondetta

Peter Ramondetta (born 1982 in Wichita, Kansas, United States) is a professional skateboarder. He currently lives in San Francisco, California.

While living in Tulsa in the late 1990s, he developed a reputation among the local skate scene as being one of the most talented skateboarders in the city. He eventually became known as the "local hero", a title earned after skateboarding at Tulsa's famed downtown Bartlet Square with Kerry Getz, Elissa Steamer, Brian Anderson, and Ed Templeton following a skateboard demo held by the Toy Machine team. Transworld Skateboarding magazine photographers and writers that were currently writing a story documenting the Toy Machine tour witnessed Ramondetta skating, and were so impressed to see a local skateboarder that was skating on par with the professionals they mentioned Ramondetta in the article, calling him the local hero. Shortly after, Ramondetta became sponsored by Real Skateboards.^{[citation needed]}
