TONY HAWK - Short Lived Street Skating

Damn he was pretty good

I love how he says no one wants to see him lipslide a 7 stair, like it’s a Ollie for him haha yea just drop that clip once haha

That blunt slide and 180 into the grind caught me off guard

180 "the Gonz".....✔❗

I didn't know he could do half of this stuff, and he really sells himself short. He wasn't as good as some of the top pros at that time, but he was still damn good from the looks of it. Really kind of middle of the road for the time.

I get what he means though, he was a guy that was near the top of transition, and was pushing the envelope, and he went from that to being middle of the road. I'm sure if he stuck with it he probably could have made his way to the top.

I've always respected the guy but was never that into transition/vert, but after seeing him do this, I respect him even more.

Wow his street skating was average lol why am i so mad about that like bro i could not lip slid no 7 handrail in my prime lol

Papas brothers smoked him mates! Cheers to Tony and his millions

Saw him about this time skating a demo and the noise and energy coming from him was unbelievable

Damn Sonnn. I didnt even know Tony could skate street. I've honestly never seen him do it until now. I thought he was born & lived on the vert ramp.

I love the 360s he was doing in the streets.

No one wants me to lip slide a 7 stair Tony Hawk
Well... call me no one because I do Every street skater that respects Tony for everything that he did for skateboarding, in a pool, on a bench, in a ramp, behind a desk, on a video game, building a skatepark, etc and marvels at the fact that he is STILL doing it.

You're a poser Hawk. You can't handle the street.

as if my dude could do a standing backflip and hes got to be over 6 foot tall. beats. always had mad respect for tony.

Lipslide a seven stair….yep…just the average everyday trick anyone can do

I haven't seen his street footage before, super interesting

he reminds me of how danny way street skates....super good.

Tony looks like a fish out of water skating street, he looks so much less awkward skating vert

I live in Greece skating only in streets from the late eighties untill 2000
Because there was no possibility to find a vert
now in the place that I grow up there are two skateparks
but I am afraid that if I fall I will break in pieces 😂😢
a Bert used to be a dream for us

Tony looks funny street skating, it doesn't suit him but he was pretty good at it,although it really looks like fun, the universe wanted him on Vert 😄

seeing tony hawk without protection skating street feels like some twilight zone shi

When did Tony find out he was a pretty good skater?

Yeah but the ramp broke that femur. Happens regardless

it was awesome to see you in the streets

He has such a youthful personality

“No one wanted me to lip slide a 7 stair…..I didn’t want to do what an average street skater can do” 😂😂 I’d say that’s above average even now, let alone in the early 90’s. That’s absurd in the early 90’s lol

Legend

I don’t know if u guys are aware but most skateboard companies will NOT sponsor you if u send them skatepark footage, and if u are sponsored they want street footage… also the “Knobbed!” Thing is an ancient joke passed down from skater to skater if yk yk.

Better at street than anyone I’ve seen IRL.

All these people who haven't slayed a day in their life getting pissy 💀💀💀

And now vert is in the Olympics crazy to think about

Tony isn’t a street skater but doing a 180 down the gonz is impressive

You all obviously haven't seen the Berrics Battle Commander video... Tony Hawk could shred street skating, this video is telling people he PREFERS vert skating.

In all seriousness! He was a very dope street skater!! I don’t see the problem he had.

His mindset is what creates industry. Right on!

there is a video of tony hawk with tom green (Canadian clown) skating style street. Tony hawk putted many good tricks on that video.

İ would like to see him tackle el toro , maybe some flip tricks

Noseslide to fakie at Serrano is so random, how did he end up there?

Damn he skates just like riley hawk

Such a boss

if he stuck w street he could be even more of a legend today imo 🤷🏾

I ordered feasters for $5.00 i mailed in the money and forgot about it and then it came in the mail. That was when skating was pretty dead.

adam lz gonna be like the automotive tony hawk in 20-30 years

no one wants an iron cross pushed on kids?

Frontside 180 across the Gonz Gap. 🙌

he may not like it, but street skating is the more respectable discipline

There aren't many 6'3 tall street skaters. It's harder for us long legged people , but it helped me to not get credit carded many times

I bet his insurance company/sponsors made him stop, as well.
He was better at street than Jordan was at baseball...

The Hawk was meant to fly

Umm I Wana see you do a lip slide on a 7 stair ....just saying...
