Episode originally published August 15, 2023 Tony Hawk is the #1 ambassador of skateboarding, a man who is, by definition, bigger than his sport. Now in his fifties, Tony is still pushing the boundaries of skating and continuing to invent new tricks, while his foundation, The Skatepark Project, has helped to build over 700 skateparks worldwide. Tony's first skate deck is currently on display at the Smithsonian, and this unstoppable skater isn't showing any signs of slowing down… even after a major leg injury.
