Skate with the Bones Brigade (for $75k)
It’s a far cry from doing demos in the paring lot at Six Flags for a couple hundred bucks! That’s right, you can have your own private session with BONES BRIGADE members Steve Caballero, Mike McGill, Lance Mountain, Tommy Guerrero, and of course, Tony Hawk. It will cost you $75,000, but the money goes to the Tony Hawk Foundation, I assume after all the expenses are paid. That’s a buttload of cash for a vanity session, but if someone rich kid’s parents or middle aged lottery winner wants to shell out that kind of money to benefit skateparks, so much the better. They have cheaper packages at Tony Hawk Experience. Actually , it will cost you more to spend a day with Tony’s family (100k) than it will to skate with the Bones Brigade. Sure, it’s absurd, but I have to say I’m all for it, considering the the benefit. However, the prices make it seem like many of these packages may go unclaimed. They hired a special firm to set this up, so maybe they know what they are doing. For $2,000 you get a phone call from (Limit, 10 packages). So if our readers want to pony up for a $2000 interview with Tony, I’m game. On the opposite side of the scale, anyone with gas money can win a session with GVK!
- Thanks to Colin for the tip.

Lotto retirement plan has to kick in first… then FanBoy will absolutely participate in the absurdity…
I’ll pony some gas money toward a Colorado skate tour featuring the Northwest Brigade.
For $75K I want a picture of myself as the fifth invert in the middle of that classic Chin ramp shot.
