A legend in skateboarding, his documentary coming out soon, and now a presenter at the Oscars. Tony Hawk really has it all. Even at the age of 53, Tony is still madly in the love with skateboarding. It’s almost as if he has devoted his entire life to the sport. The trailer for his documentary “Tony Hawk: Until the Wheels Fall Off” is already out and it will release on April 5, 2022. However, right before his trailer release, the skateboarder suffered a serious femur injury, and he is currently recovering from it. Given his age, it’ll certainly take some time to heal, but the legend remains in the best of the spirits as always. TONY HAWK REVEALED HE ONCE STALKED NICOLAS CAGE The birdman revealed how he was accidentally stalking the actor Nicolas Cage during South by Southwest festival. He said [https://www.instagram.com/tv/CblpMFPpOP2/?utm_medium=share_sheet], “Somehow, I was always on the exact same schedule as Nicolas Cage and so every time we go to an interview; I was right ahead of him or right behind him. And at the end of the day, I was behind him cause I was just always trying to get out of the car. It was funny because we were trailing Nicolas Cage all day.” Tony further added [https://www.instagram.com/tv/CblpMFPpOP2/?utm_medium=share_sheet], “we had a brief discussion and told him how I dressed up as him from ‘wild at heart’ for the Halloween. I just told him I want to show this photo from Halloween 10 years ago and he said that’s Sailor and Lula, like we didn’t know.” READ MORE- “Somebody..I Can Lean on”- NHL Star Auston Matthews Opens Up on Bromance With Justin Bieber [https://www.essentiallysports.com/us-sports-news-nhl-toronto-maple-leafs-somebody-i-can-lean-on-nhl-star-auston-matthews-opens-up-on-bromance-with-justin-bieber/] FROM SKATEBOARDING TO THE RED CARPET On Sunday, Tony Hawk will hang out with his two best buddies Shaun White and Kelly Slater at the Oscars.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Who is Tony Hawk?Â </b></h2>
What Michael Jordan is to basketball is Tony Hawk to skateboarding. One of the greatest skateboarders of all time, Hawk entertained the audience with his breathtaking skills. Likewise, he became the first person to perform a documented '900' skateboarding trick and has a licensed video game named after him. Moreover, he is one of the pioneers of skateboarding.
<h2 class="jsx-8c85ea4b4bcf4dfc" style="text-align: center"><b>Tony Hawkâ€™s early life </b></h2>
Born to Nancy and Frank Peter Rupert Hawk in San Diego, California on May 12, 1968, he entered the world of skateboarding when he was eight years old. Significantly, he got his first sponsor at the age of 12 from Dogtown Skateboards while turning a professional at the very young age of 14. Thus, his career as a skateboarder begins. By the age of 16, he became one of the best skateboarders in the world.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>All about Tony Hawkâ€™s wife Catherine Goodman and kids</b></h2>
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Tony Hawkâ€™s net worth 2024</b></h2>
The legendary skateboard did not rest on his laurels as he became a very successful entrepreneur, thereafter. According to <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-athletes/skateboarders/tony-hawk-net-worth/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Celebrity Net Worth</a>, it stands at $140 million. The skater started a skateboarding company named Birdhouse which produced many boards and accessories for the sport. He started a clothing firm in 1998 that aimed to provide skating clothes for children.

Apart from being a legendary skateboarder, Hawk's deal with Activision in 1998 cemented his legacy as one of the greats. By collaborating with the company, both of them launched the video games series 'Tony Hawk Pro Skater' which sold 1.4 billion games to date.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Tony Hawkâ€™s career timeline</b></h2>
The legendary skateboarder became the National Skateboard Association world champion for 12 consecutive years; likewise, won 70 competitions in his career. Hawk invented many skateboarding moves like the gymnast plant, the ollie-to-Indy, the Saran wrap, and the frontside 540-rodeo flip.

However, things changed during the early 90s as skateboarding lost its charm. Hence, he was a pioneer in setting up Extreme Games (later X games) in 1995 as the sport got back its mojo. He <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-athletes/skateboarders/tony-hawk-net-worth/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">won</a> 10 gold, three silver, and two bronze medals in the X Games. Thus, his major career- achievement came when he landed the first-ever documented 900 (skateboarder revolves 900 degrees in the air). Hawk took eleven years to do it and could not hide his excitement after that.

After all the achievements, Hawk retired from competitive skateboarding but remained an advocate for most of the issues related to the sport. His success didn't stop there as he became the first person to gain approval on the grounds of the White House. The first-ever Hall of Ceremony of Skateboarding happened in 2009 as Hawk got inducted.

Introducing Boom Boom HuckJam became significant as it was a live music show with sporting events on the side. He also appeared in many movies and TV shows like XXX, the entire?Jackass: The Movie?franchise,?The Simpsons,?The Masked Singer, and?Sharknado 5: Global Swarming.

He has invested in a lot of companies and struck smart deals with many of them. His investment with California's Blue Bottle Coffee chain proved to be a smart decision as the company got sold to Nestle for $500 million. Thus, all these investments made him a successful entrepreneur.
