There's a stigma to skating. People think of it as a kid's sport. People kept telling me I couldn't possibly make a living out of it. Then they said I couldn't keep it up in my 30s. And here I am in my 40s, and I'm still improving my skills. Tony Hawk 30s40simprove share on social

I consider skateboarding an art form, a lifestyle and a sport. 'Action sport' would be the least offensive categorization. Tony Hawk actionartcategorization Change image and share on social
I love the fact that there is now a skate park in almost every city, but it will always have a rebellious/underground edge to it because it is based on individuality. Tony Hawk basecityedge Change image and share on social
