Tony Hawk was born May 12, 1968 in San Diego California. He has three older brothers and his parents' names are Frank and Nancy Hawk.

He is the best skateboarder in the WORLD! He is even known as the king of the X-games. Tony helped kids have fun. He made skate parks and paid over $1,000,000 for them. He made sure they are safe.

Tony Hawk also designed skate parks. He got married to Cindy. Cindy had Riley a few years after they were married in Hawaii.

He made a place so kids don’t skateboard in the street. He made skate parks from the inside out. He made them with no parks.

Tony Hawk is my hero because he helped kids be active and healthy.
