Riley Hawk: The Route One interview

Back in early September, when the trees were still green and the warmth of summer was still lingering in the air, we were lucky enough to catch up with Baker and Lakai pro Riley Hawk during Lakai’s Picture me Eurollin’ Euro tour. Though Tony Hawk’s eldest son, Riley has very much come into his own over recent years, landing a pro spot on the illustrious Baker squad and become a name to reckon with in his own right – something we discuss with the lad at length. Other topics covered include getting on Lakai, the popularity of the Shep Dawgs video series, Thrasher’s skate rock tours and Andrew Reynolds’ recent Jenkem revelations in which he came out and discussed his regret over his past public behaviour.
