Gratuitous Tony Hawk – Page 3

Tony Hawk Advertising Buffet

Here’s a trio of advertisements featuring Tony Hawk that range in date from 1999 to 2005. All of them are for non-skateboarding products and were taken from assorted comic books. Take what you want, but eat what you take.

Tony Hawk Perched

It’s got big airs, lip tricks, flip tricks, and circus tricks. Tony’s new video part titled “Perched” has some amazing footage as well as an interesting remix of the Dead Kennedys song Police Truck. I can honestly say that I haven’t worked on a skate video this hard since The End. I never want to […]

Tony Hawk Circuit Boards

From the brand you can trust for all your creepy, electronic cockroach needs, Hexbug brings you Tony Hawk’s Circuit Boards. It’s a hybrid of fingerboards and RC skateboard technology that sounds like a bad idea, but looks kind of cool in the demo videos. The promo footage shows some cool maneuvering, however it’s speculation whether […]

Tony Hawk on Larry King and the Olympics

Tony Hawk has some inside association with talks to bring skateboarding to the 2020 summer Olympics. He thinks’s it’s going to happen. Meanwhile, poor Larry… It’s painful to watch Larry King try to be funny and hip with Tony Hawk on his show “Larry King Now” on Ora.tv. It looks like his new “network” is […]

Huvr Board with Tony Hawk and Christopher Lloyd

From the subject matter and Tony Hawk’s involvement, you could make an educated guess that it might have something to do with the Tony Hawk Foundation. Then again, it might be just for laughs. The […]

Gender Neutral Br

I was hanging out at Target a couple weeks ago, because I am a red blooded American consumer. I always migrate to the toys eventually, which is right next to the crappy sports equipment selection. I noticed this Tony Hawk branded “80’s retro Skateboard” and after examining it brought it to the scanner to find […]

Hawk Foundation donates 30k to Detroit DIY project

The Tony Hawk Foundation donated $30,000 to expand the building efforts of Ride It Sculpture Park, located in the wild, wild Midwest of the urban Detroit wasteland. Powerhouse Productions started the original product. I’m sure my friends are sick of hearing me say this, but I swear if I didn’t have kids and a mortgage, […]

Tony Owl

I don’t know what, or why, but here is an illustration by Dana Lechtenberg from the “Grunge Goat” series. Yes, that’s Tony Owl.

Hawk and Koston on the Aquabats Super Show

Tony Hawk and Eric Koston had brief cameos hamming it up on the Aquabats Super Show season 2 premier. Gotta love the Aquabats. The show is a fun one. Like a low budget cross between the Monkeys and Ultraman.
