A huge congratulations to Riley Pavey for taking out the highest honour in Australian skateboarding, winning Slam Skater of The Year for 2023, presented by Converse CONS.
Pavey had a cracker of a year, soaking up the madness at the CPH Open, then heading to Barcelona, where he impressed the WKND crew and managed to score himself a spot on the flow team. By the tail end of 2022, Riley was in Cali stacking clips with WKND owner and filmer Grant Yansura, hanging with a whole bunch of pros and even fitting in a trip to the East Coast. But it wasn’t until December that Riley really proved his SOTY status, dropping two amazing parts within a single month. With Geoff Campbell’s Melbourne heavy videos "Internet Birthday Episode 1" and "Pleather Jacket", it became clear that Riley had been on an absolute tear between his trips OS.
Take a look at Riley’s showreel and be reminded why he’s the much-deserved recipient of the Australian SOTY award for 2023. Congrats to Riley and thanks to all who voted for our 2023 SOTY.
Filmed and edited by Geoff Campbell.
