Topic: How much beating can a 48 year old dude take, holy shit.

Still not slowing down, exactly 17 years after he nailed the first 900, Tony Hawk landed it once again.

Took a lot of shit while trying. I'm surprised he walked away from this.

I know most of you don't care, but if I learned one thing as a kid, watching this dude skate, it's that you stand up when you fall, and you try again and again until you land something.

He shaped both my skatepark carrer (even tho I don't skate, but get around on 2 wheels), and that attitude carried over into my daily life.

Perhaps it inspires some of you as much as it inspired me.

Good night.

I can barely stand up straight on a skateboard.

Mick Jagger should take up skateboarding, he's 72 and built like pharoah that came back from the dead
