Andy Anderson is a Canadian professional skateboarder, born on 13 April 1996, best known for a unique style that blends the freestyle skateboarding of the early decades with more modern techniques. He is known for always wearing a protective helmet, which is extremely uncommon among professional street skateboarders. He turned pro for Powell Peralta in 2019, and his first pro video part for the company was released on 25 December 2020. In 2020 he won the Canadian Men's Park final. He qualified for the Tokyo 2020 Olympics despite tearing his meniscus in a practice run at Dew Tour 2021, represented Canada in the men's park event, placed 16th of 20, and his Olympic skateboard is held in the Olympic Museum.
