dont let the haters bring u down tony (even though i know u can read this)

all tony hawk haters are newbie skaters that play too many videogames

[zerobeat18]

I don't think I've ever seen Hawk do the flippy kind of upside down McTwist (at 3:21) as opposed to the 540 spin.

[itsnotABD]

[KuntreeRetardScandal]

shit.....................man..­.....makes your stomach drop.. really c'mon man TONY still has it and then some... what the heck man,...it's like your almost hoping to god by NOW he should be at least somewhat sucking ..... and he aint....he just don't suck at all..he is stil complete..

[vertskater91992]

who's tony hawk? never heard of him.

[ozdogs]

He is an amazing skater. He airs so high.

[ZadexTakido]

I bet some of yall didnt know that that kid johnathan schwan is only 12 and sponsored hes great

[verticalsk8r]

he looks way younger than 12

[freakyredrosesS2]

of all the places in melbourne - why frankston and prahran....? loll

[m15f17]

Only thing close to a world class vert ramp on that side of the country.

[freakyredrosesS2]

that would explain it then... yay australia.. :|

[GhettoFello]

Im guessing Hawk still rides Birdhouse?

[jimbo601]

lol he owns birdhouse

[haydenwilliamss]

ahaha how could you not know he owns birdhouse?

[1LilDave]

Very cool. Where is Prahan? There didn't seem to be many people there, or was it just the angle the camera was on. Boy that young kid rips so hard. His spin in the 540 is so quick. Imagine that spin speed, some more height and a bit older. Can anyone say 1080?

[trevfrank]

LOL look how bloody steep it is! 4:02

I remember I was too afraid to slide down it @ slam city jam 2005 when I was a volunteer and was taking off all the stickers @ the end of the event

[Mothersload]

Great Video T. Looks like you had fun and the rain held off....

Thanks for the Twideo link.

[masterthrower]
