A world-renowned skateboarder was seriously injured in a fall on the steps in front of Red Bank Catholic High School Monday night, police said.

Brian Wenning, 32, of Monmouth Beach, was transported to the trauma center at Jersey Shore Medical Center in Neptune with a severe laceration to the head, according to Captain Darren McConnell, police department spokesman.

The accident occurred shortly before 8 p.m. on the steps of the Broad Street school, though additional details were not known. McConnell said he believed Wenning remained hospitalized Tuesday morning.

Skateboarding is prohibited throughout much of downtown Red Bank by ordinance.

Wenning is frequently cited as a skateboarding innovator, appearing widely in magazine and video coverage of the sport. He produces his own like of skateboards under the brand Lockdown Skateboards.

Shitty.

Damn this sucks.  I was just watching some old Wenning footy the other day.  Keep hoping for a comeback, but this might set him back even further.  Hope he heals up.

I have always loved Wenning's skating. Kinda weird things turned out the way they did.  I was looking online and found pics of a Wenning signature shoe.

WTF? How did I not know about this? Was it unreleased or something?

Wenning at his peak was the best ledge skater there has ever been. Nothing was ever circusy, but it was always insanely tech and difficult, and always PERFECT- done with speed, perfectly balanced, landed clean.
