Shredder check-in: Zeb Ruttan

This rad kid found the love for skateboarding just 10 months ago and has already got his kickflips down. When you watch him and his friends going hard back-to-back with a trick for the 100s time you can tell he has determination, grid and most of all fun! Zeb Ruttan is 9 years old, lives in Coolum Beach on the Sunshine coast and is a regular at Chiggy’s indoor park. Some might think he actually lives in the park. We checked in with 9-year-old Zeb.

Shredder check-in: Lulu Phoenix Russell

Move over! This 7-year old goofie footer does not let anything hold her back. She is a bundle of energy, speed talker and has made a lot of besties through skateboarding. Slabzoo saw her drop in at the LevelUp vert ramp as it was just another day at the office (not sure she even stopped chit chatting at that point) and we were pretty impressed. We checked in with 7-year-old fearless multi tasker Lulu Phoenix Russel from Palm Beach on the Goldie.

You’ll often find her carving the bowl at Alex skatepark with her freshly cut mullet blowing in the wind. Move over, boys! She started skating at 7, entered her first competition at Rumble on the Reef ‘21 and her progression and support for fellow skaters this past year has been amazing. We checked in with 9-year-old Lexi Pascoe from the Sunshine Coast.

No wonder Slabzoo photographer Dain Bosworth calls him a young Jay Adams! 12-year-old Bailan Jones from Burleigh Waters on the Gold Coast is our Slabzoo Shredder. Give him some hype!

SLABZOO SHREDDER: Archie Simpson

He is fun and goofy - but with a natural stance. His favourite park is Paddo in Brisbane - although he lives a few 100k’s south in Lennox Heads, NSW. According to his friends, he will keep trying tricks until he lands them clean (the no grab 360 he does is worth a close look!). 11-year old Archie is our first featured Slabzoo Shredder from Northern NSW!

SLABZOO SHREDDER: BEAU WATERSON

This 7-year-old Sunny Coast skater has street written all over him. What his friends would say about him? “LOVE” he states. Street & Love — need we say more? He rides a tiny little 7” board that allows him to pop BS 180s with ease. He hits ledges, rails and stairs until his pants are ripped! Beau Waterson is our new Slabzoo Shredder.

SHREDDER OF THE WEEK: ARISA TREW

This 10-year-old Gold Coast based skater girl rides the bowl with such power, confidence and flow that you just gotta stop and watch her. Her smile is pretty contagious too! You will often find her ripping at Pizzey skatepark with her girlfriends who all push each other to skate harder while goofing around and having the best time. Skating at the X-games is her big dream and here at Slabzoo we can definitely see that happen. Goofy footer Arisa Trew is our new Slabzoo Shredder.
