LAGUNA BEACH, Calif., July 30 /PRNewswire/ -- Bob Burnquist was literally glowing as he warmed up the vert ramps at X Games 16 with the Tron-inspired gear that will be launched by Hurley exclusively with Pac Sun this coming November 2010. The moment happened right before the Big Air Competition; the announcers called out something strange was heading up the elevator and realized it was 5-times X Game gold medalist Bob Burnquist ... and he was glowing in the Hurley Tron line, designed by John Cherpas.

Hurley has partnered with Disney on a fashion line that is completely inspired by the upcoming movie Tron: Legacy that will open on December 17, 2010. "Tron: Legacy" is a 3D high-tech adventure set in a digital world that's unlike anything ever captured on the big screen. Electronic music duo Daft Punk have composed the film score and also are an inspiration for the Hurley line.
