Why Bucky Lasek Had The Backspin Air In Tony Hawk's Pro Skater

[@uncleelroy9867]

That whole squad from the original Tony Hawk will always be the legends of skateboarding for me and my generation. That game was the shizzzit!

[@taurincochran3398]

We used to play "break the Bucky" on THPS N64. Choose Bucky Lasek, activate all cheats minus big head mode,skate till your N64 overheats. You just broke Bucky!

[@MediaPastimes]

Serious respect to Bucky for dipping out of the franchise after THUG just because of personal principles, not a lot of people could do that.

[@chrismurray3890]

Yeah, that was disrespectful.

[@catethps]

a fair few pros dipped out of THUG2 due to the direction it headed, being mainly jackass focused Jamie Thomas did the same

[@youtubeaccountlol4942]

[@bitterXboifren]

pro skater is partially responsible for the poorly executed skatepark builds of the early 2000s. you can tell which ones were designed by people who could only imagine what skatable obstacles might look like.

[@ariesradke6193]

[@Bb186fo]

I'm glad someone else brought that up, I wasn't sure how to take his tone in his response. I chalked it up to being serious in a joking manner. But tbh he kinda seemed like he got upset at the statement. Kelly seemed to kinda feel that way too from how quickly he kept apologizing lol idk

I mean Of course Tony got the lions share of the money, his name was on the game! Not to mention the game was even most likely concieved and sold initally due to Tony's popularity. ALSO not to mention, I'd bet money he told them who he wanted in the game (Bucky)! I like Bucky, but idk why he'd expect to get the same paycheck Tony did lol Say you tell your buddy you want him to have a small part in a project you already got going, super easy money, and he goes around saying he's MAD that he didn't get the same money you did?!
