Avril Lavigne on working with Tony Hawk

While being a great skateboarder, Hawk continues to do interesting projects with different celebrities. Recently, he released limited edition skateboards with a drop of blood infused with the red paint. Now, making strides elsewhere, Lavigne loved working on her TikTok debut with the sensational skateboarder and could not stop talking about him.

“The one and only Tony Hawk. It was so cool. So forever, everyone’s been telling me like I need to do TikTok…. So I thought why don’t I do Sk8er Boy and ask Tony Hawk to come and skateboard with me? So I hit him up, and he was so nice.”

“He came over to my house and we had a barbeque, hung out in my backyard and we skateboarded back together and we filmed it on TikTok. And when it went off, nothing like I care about, but it became a big deal. 30 million views or whatever,” said Lavigne.

Likewise, she spoke about learning to drop in on the skateboard from a vertical ramp. With her focus on her street skating skills, she bought a small vertical ramp to practice her skills. Thus, Hawk is seen helping her to attempt her first drop in. After a few tries, she successfully landed her first drop in and loved how Hawk helped her.
