Tony Hawk is a global sports icon and the most famous skateboarder of all time. Back in 1999, Hawk was the first skateboarder to land the 900, a trick involving two-and-a-half midair revolutions. 

His video game series, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, is one of the most popular gaming franchises of all-time, and his Skatepark Project foundation has given over $10 million to help fund hundreds of skate parks across the United States.
