Tony Hawk. The name brings back memories oflong school evenings spent with grazed knees and broken bones as I tried to impersonate the master on the ramps in the town. Tony was like a god to most of the kids at school. Bear in mind I left 10 years ago. This means Tony has been at the height of top skateboarding for about 15 years. He must now be in his late 30's at least as he was not young when he was first around. I saw him pull of that magic 3 turns at the X games on Channel 5 this year! Superb.

why does everyone love Tony Hawk? because he is a proffessional skateboarder, he rides for birdhouse, and he has jis own game. WWHO CARES!!

Sure, Tony Hawk is good at his prefered choice, but he is only REALLY big because his name is on the front of a GAME. That doesn't mean a thing to a lot of people, sure i can see their point. Some people ( myself included - i have been sjating for five years ) knew about Tony Hawks before his game, and i didn't and still don't like him, but that is just my ...
