Tony Hawk attempts a 900 but manages to do a face plant onto the half pipe installed over the Euro pool at Wynn Las Vegas.


Ouch. I hope they comped Tony some spa treatments, he's like 50 years old now.

Yeah I saw him the first time he tried to do a 900 at the XGames (wow I'm starting to feel old, I remember going to one of the first X-Games when I used to skateboard all the time). It took him like 5-6 times to do it but he finally did it.
Hey the guy might be old, but he's still kickin and has a bitchin house on the beach. I want his house.

Why are you making fun of an old man?

dramman - i'm certainly not making fun of tony. as one who recently crossed an age worth celebrating, i know how the bones feel after stuff like that. if they hired me to pound my skeleton into submission, i sure hope that spa treatments were in the cards for later.
