Ryan Sheckler

It's only July, but Ryan Sheckler has spent the first half of 2006 skating around the world in exotic locales ranging from Australia and Spain to China and Dubai. Not bad for a dude born in 1989, but then again he got an early start: Check his website at www.ryansheckler.com for shots of him pushing a board around at the tender age of 18 months. Sheckler finished the 2005 Dew Action Sports Tour as the Athlete of the Year and he started off this Dew Tour where he left off, winning the Skate Park title at the 2006 Panasonic Open.
