Continuing to impress fans and judges as she moved to the parks and bowls, the 13-year old Encinitas, CA resident quickly started moving up the ranks and placings, and is now taking the podiums at today\u2019s most recognizable and notable events.<\/p>\n<p>The addition to Pro-Tec comes as she embarks to compete at the Vans Park Series World Championships later this week in Shanghai, China, where she will defend her title as the Women\u2019s World Champion.<\/p>\n<p>On making the switch to Pro-Tec, Zeuner said, \u201cIf you&#8217;re going to wear a helmet then ride the original and skate with an amazing crew. Skaters like The Gonz, Lizzie Armanto, Jimmy Wilkins and the rest of the team get me psyched.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve been a fan of Brighton\u2019s since first meeting her through fellow riders, Lizzie Armanto and Allysha Le.
