CARSON, Calif. — Canadian Pierre-Luc Gagnon’s superstition may have been the extra motivation needed for him to capture gold in Skateboard Vert on Saturday at the 2009 X Games. “I’m pretty superstitious,” the Montreal native said. “I had 13 X Games medals and was like, ‘Hopefully I can get one more.’ This year was the year, and I just wanted to get away from the number 13.” Gagnon ended with a score of 93 to outlast a pair of veterans in a new format that featured a 12-minute running clock with each skater’s two best runs counting toward their final score. Bucky Lasek was runner-up with a score of 91 and Andy McDonald, of San Diego, was third with an 84.
