SHREDDER OF THE WEEK: ARISA TREW
This 10-year-old Gold Coast based skater rides the bowl with such power, confidence and flow that you just gotta stop and watch her. Her smile is pretty contagious too! You’ll often find her ripping at Pizzey skatepark with her girlfriends who all push each other to skate harder while goofing around and having their best time. Skating at the X-games is her big dream and here at Slabzoo we are confident she will make that dream a reality. Goofy footer Arisa Trew is our new Slabzoo Shredder.
