Hudson Riley Hawk (born December 6, 1992) is an American professional skateboarder.[1][2][3][4][5][6]

He is the son of Tony Hawk. Unlike his father, who is known for his vert style, Riley is better known as a street skater. He turned pro on his 21st birthday in December 2013 and became Skateboarder Magazine's 2013 Amateur of the Year on the same day.[7] He is sponsored by Baker and Lakai.[citation needed]

Hawk is featured in the Tony Hawk's video game series, appearing in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD and Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5.[8]
