For someone who could probably stay unemployed and just take over the Tony Hawk empire and live a better life then half of the world, he's a pretty humble guy. Cheers Riley!!!
This was shot after he was kicked out of an xtra beach house tony had, but Riley partied out and neighbors of the elite put the smack down and said NO Hippies in our hood, shit he lives exactly how I lived when I was 20??? If I wasn't married I'd be there with chris borst , drinking all his beers...I'm not that cool tho
a modest little skate house in San Diego county isn't actually as modest as it may look. Very expensive real estate around oceanside, Encinitas what have you
Fester Addams Nah. Obvious he pays for it. He’s pro, makes music, and I think he owns a coffee shop. Lol been a huge supporter since the Shep Dawgs days
+Falquiboy I feel ya bro, I live in Nova Scotia Canada where there isn't a single indoor park. unless you wanna drive 6 hours, and pay $15 an hour, to be surrounded by little scooter kids. Out side Its minus 15 degrees without the wind-chill factor(-23 degrees) I go to this underground parking (still minus 20 degrees)to skate flat-ground to cope, but...you get it.
Dudes so cool that he isnt going to pretend each days a party. Im not sure if ive seen anyone say that in any field during a video like this. Dudes solid
Wow most chill dude ever. He seems like one of those guys who are always nice and relaxed in a confident way and never fake with nothin to prove. Super Rare personality
What the hell, his dad is basically one big adult teenager and Riley just seems awesome as fuck. "hopefully you guys don't hate me after this" how the fuck is that even possible
His laid back as fuck and who could hate on someone being lucky enough to come from a good home. Cheers for letting us watch you and your bros chill and here's to the chief who filmed it for our viewing pleasure this sip of beers for you.
Nothin' but love for the Hawk's (all 3). Thanks for all contributions and devotion you've put into this industry. If the Hawks are "sell-outs" then I'm buying. Money sucks, yes, but until the monetary system lifts it's giant thumb, there will never be any way to avoid it. So lets just skate.
I just found out Riley's first name is actually Hudson. Hudson Hawk! Lol! One of my favorite goofball comedies starring the one and only Bruce Willis. (though from what little info I found Hudson is the last name of a relative of Tony's for which he was named, though I can't ignore the film connection to his name.
Damn is the guy a polymath or something? cuz that tattoo looked killer for just a casual pick up. Anyway it's cool to see a hesh dude that has more on his mind than just drinking and smoking. Tbh I was disappointed when I saw Riley go hesh all those years ago cuz I didn't want to see another talent caught up in all that shit but it seems he's keeping it real and staying productive, much respect man!
Definitely a polymath. That whole family is. And a few years ago I would have debated the second part of your response (even tho its 3 years old) because 'marijuana is harmless' but any addict knows that just like alcohol, it can certainly be an indirect gateway to other things. Although I do realize anything can be deemed a 'gateway'. Spent my whole teenage years as a 'burnout', I mean I worked and went to school, got my shit done, but I smoked weed all day everyday and got drunk nearly every night. But then I started with the occasional vicodin I took from my pops, a klonopin my buddy gave me, rolling on MDMA, oh you got some acid? Sure. Eventually I ended up smoking black tar off tin foil, followed by rips from the meth pipe. Never would have thought in a million years I'd sink that low. But when you're open to 'new experiences' and hanging around people who drink and smoke all day, eventually someone will bring some shit around. Nobody and nothing but myself and my choices led me there, but the fact is I did start by sitting around smoking weed all day every day.
ArchySk8 well that seems apropriate. go see a shep dawgs part instead. This is about how's his life behind the lens, his friends, his persona, and that's really cool to get without actually meeting him in person. He seems a super chilled dude!
ArchySk8 I see where you're commin from, but it's a day in the life, not a day in the skate. It actually works pretty well, defines him as a skater, shows he has been recently tearing shit apart immensely. It's a big part of being a skater, having to heal your wounds.
Nah man, it's a cool lil banger party tat but that's as far as it goes...most of that is going to fall out the first year. Not knocking Riley at all party tats are killer but not built to last or hold much quality...still rad though
Riley Hawk, you have my utmost respect and gratitude! You do what you love to do for a living and you're humble about it all. You enjoy the time you spend with the homies. Skateboarding AND surfing...Keep it Cali...always! People: don't be jealous! Follow your dreams, be humble, and save enough $ to get things started. Work hard at it and don't give up! Much respect, Active! Love your catalogs!
Hey I am a big fan of yours and your dad and I watch you all the time and your dad and I'm learning how to skate and I can ollie and pop shuv it and shuv it
So, the key is to go back in time, practice a sport with unconditional love almost every day until you can't breathe without it, Blow everyone away with your effortless tricks, gear brands need high-performing human beings to demonstrate what can be done with their gear, so you get sponsored. Do your sport on camera and sign autographs, and put tattoos on your homies. Rough life.
what a rad dude.. i thought it was cool when he came up that he skated street and not vert..but he's not one of the shake junt burnouts.. cool personality and talented in other facets besides just skating.. right on riley.
Just a pure dope as skater , human to,,he chilled outr.dope as cat man much respect BAKER/DEATHWISH 4 LIFE ITS FAMILY ,,THE HOMIES ALL KNOW IT................
