If you're still skateboarding in your 40s/50s with the same fanaticism as you had when you were 8 years old, I salute you 👍🏽

[@islamicsalami7208]

I'm 43 and got back into it about 12 years ago. It's a love that will never die. Skating keeps you in shape, gets you outside and is a great way to meet others. Learning new tricks is still as fun as it was when i was a teenager. Currently working on spinning a 270 over the hip at the park.

Been skating since 98’ and am a Black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. I am always pumped to see others cross over between the two!

[@wegetup598]

i started BJJ a couple months ago i just recently got my first stripe on my belt it felt better than landing any skateboard trick i ever did i skated for about 3-4 years before i quit because i had no friends left that were still skateboarding all day so i started training it was the best decision of my life i look up to the black belts in my gym so much just the fact they put at least 10-15 years of there life to get that belt is mind boggling much love ❤

[@MCmaster7102]

I've been skating and surfing since I was 6 years old in 2006, I started Jiu Jitsu in 2022 and now a blue belt... Its inspiring to see so many talented skaters and surfers cross training into Jiu Jitsu and it always seems to benefit their life in many ways like Riley says, it keeps you conscious of your health and body. I also found that it develops a mindset that starts to bleed into your surfing and skating in a spiritual, playful way like Martial arts.

[@matthewjames206]

Moderation is key if you continue to. It definitely becomes harder on the body when getting older 🤘🤘

I moved to get away from drinking all the time. Just drink on special occasions now.

[@AEMG79]

Just do it. Once you pass the weird first phase of it, you'll start focusing on the great great benefits, I quit 3 years ago and it gives you power. When you taste the power of will is like nothing else. You can do it

We were on the same flight back to SD, he was a super nice guy took the time to chat with me and ask me questions, even though I was all geeked out. Respect!

[@naturesbest7977]

35 years old, started eating better, stretching, hitting the gym 6 days a week. Finding other avenues for exercise. I skated everyday from 10 years old-25. Work, house, wife, kids and career. It happens so fast. If I fall now and get injured, It takes WEEKS to recover.

[@howiwatchvideos]

All good bud.

[@MB-vk8cv]

Nah 35 aint that bad. Thats like the last time of your life you can fall and it isnt terrible. At least for me it was. Im 46 now and I wont even try any new tricks for the fear of falling now isnt weeks to recover, it might be forever.

It's not easy to carve out your own authentic path when you have such a famous parent above you but Riley figured it out, found a way & genuinely flourished as his own individual. Who now just happens to get to share cool moments in his life with his dad.

[@andrewashford5617]

Especially when ur dad can’t skate street🤡😂

[@chrisxshock]

This is so cool. I’ve been the opposite in a sense of Riley. I spent my life in martial arts. Competing and eventually owning my own school until December of 2023 when I lost steam after just being crushed in a few comps and well, just realized I peaked already. I started skating again, after doing it for 2 decades and stopping for the last 10 years. My daughters got me back into skating, I built them a mini ramp, got an old fish tail, and now I feel revitalized in my martial arts. I’ve been better in bjj than I have been in years! This just hit at one point!

I remember seeing little Riley in the old Tony Hawk Trick Tips videos on VHS… man time flies. Sooo awesome to see him grow up to be a humble inspiring person. You usually assume people growing up in famous/rich families, end up being shitty people. Sick that he made his own path. I’m just glad here’s another example of how down to earth most “real” skaters are. Cheers to the Hawk legacy! You’ve made such a huge impact on my life & I’m forever grateful!

[@SabrinaMorris]

I love watching Riley skate. In what universe he could possibly think he wasn't particularly relevant in skating anymore and was simply lucky to have sponsors, I don't know. What humility! Watching him is what pulled me out of a 20 year hiatus from skating. Watching him is what put Lakais on my feet and the occasional Baker board to ride. Bummed he's not on IG anymore, but I also get why he's not.

[@BroadLyte]

Tbh I never expected much from Riley as a skater, wouldn’t have been surprised if he had an easy ‘get on’ but that changed immediately when years and years ago I watched his baker part, became a fan immediately. He’s a dynamic skater with a heavy bag of tricks!❤

[@jm-jj1kf]

i am 36 and daily yoga does help me a lot, i am better than ever now and learned a lot new tricks in the last two years i never thought i will really learn. never skated switch for twenty years and now its became like my thing. my switch/nollie flips still suck but im getting better every other day. its such a high feelin when you learn new tricks and there are still a bag of tricks like no comply variations i will learn when my muscles dont want anymore xD. i only hurt myself when i am too tired or not warmed up properly, last real skate injury was rolled ankle 10 years ago. so knock on wood and if it happens i ll embrace the pain like rodney 😂

[@skulldaggery_20K9]

Been skating most my life, found jiu-jitsu about 5 years ago. I found it to be very similar, instead of doing trick on objects you do them on people. It's like if the spot or the park fought back. It's got style, it's social, and you spend a lot of your time failing, you get those awesome eureka moments when you finally figure new things out, just like in skateboarding. I don't skate as much, but living in a rainy city with cold winters, and no indoor parks, it's nice to have something to do year round.

[@NinoBone]

Real shit, you work hard to hopefully hear your dad speak highly about you. That hits different and Riley has always had the talent. Keep pushing

[@fractalourpiece7983]

Been skating for 25 years, BJJ for 3 months… skating is its own thing but makes me realize how much closer it is to a “martial art” than a “sport”. The individualism, the recognized levels of accomplishment, the never ending puzzle of it all, the respect for and of your peers, it really is a martial art you do against yourself and your environment

[@hi_tech_reptiles]

Ya dont head Tony get emotional often, pretty rare thing to capture. Keep killin it Riley!

Imagine having SKATEBOARDING in common with your dad. You guys had skateboarding through your veins. I grew up with you guys, i still remember the Tony Hawk's Project 8 extra DVD video from ps2 where Riley and Figgy were just two little boys skating. The only thing i have in common with my dad is sobriety. And after everything we have passed together i still skating sometimes, life is so god right know thanks for sharing this.

This video came at a good time for me, my dad passed and i used to compete in BJJ after college and tore my shoulder and was out for a bit. Then fractured my ankle at the skatepark. Was too easy to just party and work and hit the bottle. One year turned to two. Now im sober and back on my skateboard and will be back on the mats once my epilepsy is a little better under control.

Great video, and very inspiring! I quit skateboarding a few years back, cause i wanted to "mature" and get my life together while battling with sever anxiety, adhd, depression ect. I was extremely overweight also, so my body really didnt let me enjoy it anymore. so i quit! Turns out, years later, skateboarding wasent a problem to anything for me, im still overweight, still issues with anxiety and still struggling! So i get back to it very recently. At 36y and 300+ pounds.What i change is my mindset. I enjoy it for what it is, and with humility that my health demands. Im just trying to be healthier and enjoy my self. I might get hurt while skating, but hey! Ill rearange my expectations each day and any moment necesary ,because even just cruising is fun....Thats what skateboarding is all about!

When i first started watching Out There I took note of the dual meaning. Out there, meaning out in the world actively skating, but also someone who thinks differently or is very extreme or unusual. A great example is the Bobby Puleo episode. Lately it seems like the episodes are just mini docs about normal thinking skaters like Kalis or Riley.

[@holly6157]

I wasn't really a fan of Riley Hawk before this video, but he seems really down-the-earth and like he has a healthy mindset about skating. I do skateboarding and martial arts too, so I was pleasantly surprised this video opened with a martial arts tournament. In my opinion, martial arts and skateboarding are both good options for people who want to exercise and express themselves without a bunch of meaningless rules or the boredom of going to a gym.

Has anyone made a documentary about this phenomenon of talented, but extremely rich kids who grow up essentially acting/living like they aren't? You watch this footage and you see these guys out on the streets with baggy pants and old t-shirts, skating on absolutely savaged decks and just making it work like the rest of the working-class skate offspring, doing the work and rising naturally (for the most part). It's super fascinating because at any point, they could just build their own skatepark, buy a sponsor, own a skate company or what have you, ya know.
