I don't think there is any one that rivals him in the number of kids he directly influenced to give skateboarding a try.

He is one of those people that will always be cool to me. He reached a level of fame in skateboarding that was unprecedented in his time and he still seems to be a very humble, modest person. And still shreds on top of it.

Kind of related but do you guys remember "Tony Hawk's Gigantic Skatepark Tour"? Where he and a bunch of other skaters just got into a bus and went across the country stopping at random parks. He always seemed so chill and happy to be skating. Guy is just all around awesome.

how ironic that there was just a thps thread last week, and now this. What does this video mean for his future career? i assume hes not going to compete again.

such a sick video regardless

tony hawk says he thinks burnquist is the best vert skater ever, but i feel like tony is more rodney mullen like in style. burnquist is amazing but always seemed a lil more sketchy
