A lot of sports have their legends but if you asked me who's the biggest legend of any sport it has to be the man "Tony Hawk" and the sport "Skateboarding". What other sport has one person had such an impact... maybe Michael Jordan in Basketball but Nike marketing him to people has a lot to do with that.

It's amazing the longevity that Tony Hawk has had. He's around 11 years older than me, but I remember being a very young kid and skateboarding and he was a pro then. And then all he has accomplished, and given back to skateboarding. Even after I stopped skateboarding 20+ years ago is around when THPS and those games came out. I played most of them endlessly. He is someone I very much looked up to, and he was a good role model for younger skateboarders to have all these decades up til this very day. He's our Michael Jordan. An absolute living legend. Much love and respect to Tony Hawk.

[@ratlips4363]

I'm 74. I first started skate boarding in Seattle as early as 1963. We stole the trucks/wheels off of the roller skates at the local skating rink. There were no skateboard shops or parks. We primarily went for speed down hills. I broke a finger once during a local competition held in a parking lot. My trick was a 360 spin on the rear wheels then I fell. We once got pulled over by the local police for speeding down a hill. He used his lights to pull us over, but since we didn't have brakes, we had to just let it run out at the bottom of the hill. We were not looked at very favorably back then. In the early 70s, in Palo Alto, we once again started boarding. With the new wheels it was into empty swimming pools that had been drained. Everyone built their own boards, I still have mine in solid oak, flat.

I really love the background music choices, not /s they're just really well done and match the feel of each part really well.

[@neoanderson7]

The guy is a legend. He's got more experience showing but still going strong! Not to mention coming back again for another round of Hot Wings. Well done Tony!

[@kamikazemelon787]

I've loved Tony Hawk since I was a kid in 1998 skating almost every day.. don't skate at all anymore though I can still probably do a kickflip if given a few minutes. He's always struck me as a very kind person and I don't think skateboarding could have had a better "household name" representative. I believe Tony Hawk IS the reason kids these days have "so much access...foam pits etc" as he said.

[@patrickwillard2815]

Sean always brings his ‘A’ game to an interview, but I don’t know if I’ve ever seen him more excited than at the prospect of ‘Skate Jam’ and interviewing Tony Hawk.

[@acmalin927]

Still will never forget running into then livingroom watching him hit the 900 for the 1st time...WE FREAKED THE F OUT. LEGEND!!!

[@wizcorn9958]

You shouldn’t run inside 🫵🏻

[@11DarkSteve11]

Embodies grunge, punk rock, hip-hop/rap, skating, freedom, being on the streets as a kid, iconic game and the list goes on. This man is one of the purest avatars of the 90s

[@Xero2097]

One of the most humble and kind hearted person. Much love to Tony ❤

[@JBrotsis1]

While my heart and support go out to the actor’s in their rightful strike, it’s actually really cool to see the awesome lineup of non-actors Hot Ones has been getting this season.

[@HeroLionHeart68]

My skating hero,Hes the reason i started skating when i was 15 im 36 now,We love you man.

[@Digimess88]

used to replay his training VHS over and over and over to learn how to kickflip lol. The video games were so huge growing up, and I actually just installed the recent remakes like a few days ago coincidentally. Anyone remember when he was on Rocket Power too? Thanks Tony, you are a Legend.

[@megan5636]

I was obsessed with that episode of rocket power with him

[@dualupa6641]

I Love Tony. Always so humble, no drama, no gossip. Living the dream, man.

[@BMcMahan-p4q]

What an absolute unit! He's been going for years and still promotes what he loves!

[@thehashpuppy]

Tony is the man! The myth and the legend! No possible way to deny it either yet so humble. A true role model.

[@chrisclouds4182]

I probably logged more hours playing Tony Hawks Pro Skater 2 than any other video game ever. The soundtrack and spots you could skate were the best. Also many fond memories of watching those first XGames as a kid growing up.

[@JEEJ_MUSIC]

Tony's an icon, and it's cool to see him wear that distinction with pride. He seems like a cool dude.

[@N13J]

Flea and Tony back to back episodes amazing choice of guests this season!

[@juliangallegos7627]

Tony hawk is one of the reasons why I got into skateboarding, punk/metal, playing guitar, going to live shows, etc. Growing up in Arizona it was mostly hip hop/rap gangsta swagg.... This was definitely an outlet to express ourselves in a different genre

[@RAB1D_ROB0TS]

He is such an influence on not only American culture but World culture. He made such an impact on sports, skate culture, fashion, video games and so much more. He's a living legend and would love to see SKATE JAM get made because he does a lot of amazing things and this would help him do so many more. ✌️

[@estevannn]

I didn't watch the new Space Jam but I would CERTAINLY go see a Skate Jam!! S/O Tony Hawk for coming back and continuing to be a LEGEND!!

[@hishamhilal8332]

They got Tony Hawk and Flea, both legends I idolized through my childhood. Even though I was born in 2000 I still felt the influence of these two and it is a shame that these episodes are not as big as they should be.

[@RockStarChefOriginal]

T Hawk is the most applauded pop culture athlete in my lifetime. 🤘🏽 Keep it Brutal Brother.

[@sirKonradical]

If you don't mind me asking? Did you ever skateboard, or do you just know Tony from pop culture? I'm just curious how far his influence has reached

[@RockStarChefOriginal]

Since I was 8 years old, 2 1/2 years before the movie Back to the Future.

[@sirKonradical]

@chefheli nice! Yeah whenever I see Tony I always wonder how many people watching him don't or haven't skateboarded

[@theathjr]

I was never a skater but I can honestly say Tony Hawk influenced his sport more than any other person in any other sport as far as advancement in my lifetime anyways. I was born in ‘72. He is the GOAT in that category.

[@TheCAB207]

I'll never forget watching Tony live hit the 900. One of the coolest moments in sports.

[@kylekennedy9212]

As a San Diego native born and raised, I couldn’t be more proud to claim him as one of our own! Such an incredible dude.

[@mktruett]

Same! Doesn’t get better as a San Diego native son

[@nerfherder4284]

Tony is just all around a great example of a successful person. At the end of the day he is still a cool and relatively humble person. Kudos

[@DirtyMoneyHipHop]

Tony Hawk 2 is one of my all-time favourites. What a nice guy, great interview! Cheers

[@SinisterMD]

I feel increasingly bad for people who do this now versus when it all started. Sauces back then were like Cholula and Tapatio. Tony Hawk is a fantastic individual that I grew up seeing and appreciating even though I wasn't a skater. His Twitter stories about people asking if he's really Tony Hawk are legendary.

[@DERRTYCHYBO]

Such a down to earth and humble dude. Amazing considering what all he's accomplished.

[@TonyTheTiger94]

What an episode, I absolutely love this legend of a man.
