6. GAVIN STUCKEY

Gavin is the youngest rider on our list at only 9 years old and we have no doubt he is the best 9-year-old cable rider in the world. He has an older brother Trent (11) with whom he rides with everyday at Orlando Watersports Complex in Orlando, FL. Both of Gavin's parents are also great wakeboarders and have coached him well - except now they're trying to keep up with him. Gavin can already grab his backside 540s and has landed a few switch heelside 720's and is even more impressive on the rails.

Gavin also has the goal of becoming the youngest rider in the world to land a double-flip and while he has yet to attempt one, he has plenty as time to do so, as the current youngest rider to ever land a double-flip is Australian Kyle Richardson, who landed one at 13 earlier this year.
