Family of Ryan

Gretchen Sheckler

She is the mother of the three Sheckler boys, and she also works as Ryan’s manager for his skateboarding profession. She is an expert at balancing the needs of her other younger sons, her own personal life, and helping run Ryan’s career. She regularly travels together with Ryan, and accompanies him during his numerous skateboarding promotional events and competitions. But at the same time, she ensures that his daily schedule and other responsibilities such as school are properly adhered to.


Randy Sheckler

Ryan Sheckler's father, Randy, and their mother, Gretchen, married in 1988. When Ryan, Shane and Kane were growing up, Randy could always be found videotaping the boys as they tried out new skateboarding moves in the backyard. He loved watching them learn new tricks and was really proud when Ryan's career started taking off.
Although Randy and Gretchen recently divorced after almost 18 years of marriage, Randy is still a hands-on dad who supports Ryan and his brothers in all of their endeavors. Although Randy and Ryan's relationship has been a bit rocky since the divorce, Randy plans on sticking by his son through thick and thin. Randy is a self-starter who runs multiple businesses, and it seems like he's passed that motivation and persistence along to the Sheckler boys.


Kane Sheckler


Eight-year-old Kane is Ryan and Shane's younger brother, and he is as charismatic as they come. Being the youngest of the three Sheckler boys can be rough but Kane holds his own alongside his big brothers, especially in the skate park. While Ryan and Shane are out riding their skateboards, Kane can be found zipping around on his skateboard, trying to master new tricks. Kane is fearless and definitely gives his brothers a run for their money.
Even though it's sometimes hard for Kane to keep up with Ryan and Shane, he still has a tight relationship with his two older brothers. Since Kane is so young, his parents' divorce has left him a little confused, so Ryan has made an extra effort to spend more time with him. Because of this, Kane views Ryan as a father figure and looks up to him. But unlike Shane, Kane hopes to one day follow in Ryan's footsteps.

Shane Sheckler

Shane is Ryan Sheckler's younger brother (and older brother to Kane). Like Ryan, he's a typical teenage boy who enjoys going to school, wrestling, hanging out with his friends and, yes, skateboarding in his free time.
Shane and Ryan have a really close relationship, but while Shane admires his older brother, he's made a conscious effort to not live in Ryan's enormous shadow. Shane is doing a great job as the middle brother realizing he too is a roll model for Kane.
Despite not wanting to follow in Ryan's footsteps, Shane is becoming a fantastic skater in his own right. In fact, Ryan is so impressed with his younger brother's skills that he thinks Shane has the potential to make skateboarding a career.
