"If anything, I was excited for Riley to be recognized on a scale that was beyond nepotism. Obviously, he's super good and deserved to be on Birdhouse for his skills. The idea that he was just living in my shadow didn't sit well with either of us. I was just trying to keep him going until something happened, like, how Andrew Reynolds ended up recognizing him." - Tony Hawk
I like how Tony skates in his son's pro model shoe.
