not a madonna... madonna is frontside (one footed lien to tail). backside is a Sean Penn (1 footed body jar). The two tricks were named during the time madonna and Sean Penn were married. Of course going into in from fakie adds another level of Tony.
you just blew my brain apart. i never heard this before. ive seen handfuls of old contest videos w vert and they called any front hand grab (not always lien) one foot tail tap a madonna. i remember backside body jars but those werent foot off. this thing you wrote challenged what i know and how i see these things (where do you stand on "varial kickflip" when a varial was a grab?) but thats what the generations have just accepted. they discussed this on 9club before! but internet person, thank you for this comment. i just wound up texting tons of old skate people to ask their recollections were. to he honest i cant remember in videos then people doing that except maybe neil blender on the street, never recall seeing that on vert! rambling on, but thank you. your comment woke up a part of my brain i forgot about. tonys part is bananas. given his age and post op, its crazy. that channel is so big, tony has balls of big steel to be doing that shove it stuff over that, inverts....my word. lances doing invert over the channel. at his age is so sick. all of them. all of them
@@briank5486 varial and shove-it melted into the same thing in street. It all evolves. What came from vert goes to street and street has gone to vert, if you add in kickflip stuff, then freestyle enters the mix. The lines and names get blurred. It's amazing how damn crazy skateboarding has gotten. From cruising down the street on clay wheels to jumping the great wall of china.
To still be skating as well as he is at his age in insane by itself. To do it after an injury of such magnitude (again at his age) is unprecedented. Anyone that skates or plays sports know just how much an injury later in life sets you back...not just physically but mentally. There's fear and doubt in your body that is almost a bigger challenge than the physical aspect of it. To see Tony charge back into arena so fearlessly and competently is impressive and inspiring. I didn't even think about the SOTY, but after everything he's done, to do this...I support him getting it. It would be an amazing knot on an equally amazing career. I just don't know if it's realistic.
That was fuckin amazing having the other legends then and now in his part... that was honestly special and definitely the best Xmas gift we all received...im sure we can all agree on that
Tony is responsible for a generation of ppl, who fell in love w/ skateboarding, as well as becoming skateboarders. He’s 1 of 1. 🐐 If he doesn’t get SOTY, cool. He deserves countless 💐 for what he contributed to the world instead. 💯💯💯
@@williambarringer6513 The only reason why millions of normies started to skate and fell in love with the mind of Rodney Mullen in the first place is the video game.
Are we just glossing over the fact that Rodney did two tricks in this part? The man is never seen skating any more and is undeniably the absolute GOAT.
Good God. I've been watching that man my whole life....to think that guy stomping trick after trick in 2023 is the same guy who stomped the 900 after 17 tanks in a row is crazy
Skateboarding officially has a pope now ! 😂 Mad respect. I feel blessed to have stood right next to him at our local skatepark. Caballero was there as well. The same thing kinda happened when i was bunking at a skateshop in Antwerp, Belgium...it was the night before a contest. They entire Hossoi team came to that shop to crash. We ate chinese and watched James Brown video tapes all thru the nite.
My first time seeing Tony Hawk was in the early 90's in Adelaide South Australia. He was with Buckey, Fankie Hill and others what a ledgend and seen him a few more times over the years❤
Unless vert Ramp? Also saw him at the Fulham Gardens Skate park when he ollied from the bowl to the capsule. Thought that was the sickest thing I'd ever seen.
@truckerruss5764 I'm sure we were there on the same day and also done a sweet 360 from the capsule to the donut. We then followed him to Unley and he done back to back 720's and on one of his stacks his board came our way and he shook our hand I still have not washed it to this day 🤣
I remember a segment in 87 on a nightly news program that profiled Tony Hawk and the commentater said that Tony named it The Madonna "because it's so awesome it takes your breath away". TV was called "PM Magazine" if there any othe roldsters out ther who remember.
If you'd have told me when I was 14 and watching Animal Chin that TH would still be skating like this 36 years later, I definitely wouldn't have believed it.
Minus the injuries and this video part he also is getting vert into the olympics while throwing official vert contests through out the year bringing up more vert skaters. He kinda do deserve SOTY with all that in a year.
Legacy, nostalgia, and all that aside, I genuinely think Tony's part deserves SOTY on merit. When was the last time a vert skater got SOTY? When was the last time a part largely filmed at one spot won someone SOTY? All the tricks that made the part looked effortless in a way that is inspiring rather than a way that makes it seem like nobody else will ever be *that* good.
In late ‘79 or early 1980 myself & a few friends were skating at Del Mar Skate Ranch & we saw this little kid in the half pipe slam hard & knock his teeth loose from that face plant . We ran over , helped him up ( he was dazed from the impact & blood was all over his jaw & shirt ) and we rushed him down to the office/ pro shop where Grant called his parents to come get him . I found out a day or so later it was a young Tony Hawk. Fast forward a couple decades later and I’m at Tony’s signing of his autobiography at the San Diego air & space museum with my oldest daughter ( she’s also a huge fan of his) and when my turn in line comes to have him sign my copy I relate my involvement at Del Mar to him. He stopped , stood up & reached over & shook my hand & hugged me & signed not only my copy & daughter’s copy of his book , but sent over an Autographed framed picture of him doing an amazing air outta the pool at Del Mar probably right about the end of the park’s life with the words “ Thanks Steve, Tony” written on it . I treasure those items and keep ‘em in my “ Man cave “ , and at almost 64 now myself wish I could do but HALF of what I used to do when I’m out skateboarding still . To see Tony still doing what he once did & even more is just mind boggling . Thanks Tony , for being you 😎👍
Tony should get the award. This is sick at any age. Give him the award for staying committed for long enough to be that good at that age. Not to mention all the other things hes done this year to benefit the community.
Tony Hawk is to skateboarding what Michael Jordan is to basketball .. people who don’t even know anything about the “sport” know the name. They’ve become a literal brand .. and nothing could have stopped them from doing so
What was that old narcisist doing at the x games man holy shit 1000 skaters would kill to be there and everyone is cheering like look at tony go hes 100 years old hes so brave. Man he cannot stand to fade away into the mist he is determined to milk and burn himself out to nothing
@@jasonstinson3894 understand what you mean. From what i've seen it seems like Tony is a bit more technical on The coping while Danny is better with flips and gaps.
Why are you all saying "videopart" as if its one word and its a common term? This is the first ive ever heard "videopart" said in this way. its so unnatural hearing it.

Tony skates a full size vert like its a 3 foot mini... At 50+ years old. 🐐🐐🐐🐐
He’s had that ramp for 20 years
Legit curiosity. Is it harder to ride a big or mini vert? You can slide out easier on big I think but mini you can get bodied
yes you can slide out on a big ramp but if you come too far off the lip or something you get hurt pretty bad@@josiahamaze
But his slams feel like slamming on a mega ramp
not a madonna... madonna is frontside (one footed lien to tail). backside is a Sean Penn (1 footed body jar). The two tricks were named during the time madonna and Sean Penn were married. Of course going into in from fakie adds another level of Tony.

Tony named both of them too
It’s also called a Backside Butt Punch
@@briank5486one foot grab with front foot off is called a frigid air

Best ambassador for any sport in history. There it is, I said it.
Tricks were clean, doesn't skate sluggishly at all after all these years. Amazing!
Tony is so fun to watch
Always
Dude continues to amaze me
It was sick to see the OG bones brigade
Could see him getting SOTY just because of his age and what he’s doing on a board, I’d be stoked
I've been a fan of Tony since day 1 (we are the same age). It's so satisfying to see what he is doing in all aspects of his life.
Did anyone else get goosebumps as soon as this tony part started? Besides it being obviously December and cold lol
Tony is 55. Amazing part, and so awesome to see the crew back together. Just really, really cool and a testament for the entire BB's love for skating.

The fact that Caballero, McGill and Lance are also skating at a high level, blows my mind?
So dope to see these guys still killing it.
That was fuckin amazing having the other legends then and now in his part... that was honestly special and definitely the best Xmas gift we all received...im sure we can all agree on that
I’m 38 and can barely push anymore. Good on him. He's nuts.
@@humanbean3by that logic can just skate street and just ride downhill

The only reason normies know who he is, is the video game, Rodney Mullen should be household name but he’s too weird
@@williambarringer6513Rodney is Tonys favorite skater, that says something
*generations - plural! and providing safe legal places they can skate across the country.

Technically one trick twice, and a pretty easy one at that, especially by his standards.
His style is actually improving as he approaches his seventh decade. Quite astonishing.
Good God. I've been watching that man my whole life....to think that guy stomping trick after trick in 2023 is the same guy who stomped the 900 after 17 tanks in a row is crazy
Awesome to see him release more footage. Tony Hawk is the man!
i can barely skate a vert ramp this shit is crazy! he still blows my mind
Shit brought tears to my eyes

Tony has had a list of finishing injuries. Especially the broken femur only just a while back. Mans a gladiator.

Such a good part. Birdman 🐦 Done did it 💥 Sean Penn though not a Madonna ✨
tony is a living legend!
If you'd have told me when I was 14 and watching Animal Chin that TH would still be skating like this 36 years later, I definitely wouldn't have believed it.
Legend🔥
Im 30 and its sometimes a chore to get on my board and i been skating for like 15+ years. How he does it at 55 is beyond me!!!
I say give him SOTY! Going this hard for this long is incredible!
Honestly I agree
I could only hope to be as gnarly as tony is In his mid 50s
SOAT ❤ skater of all times
He deserves it and may be his last part. Gotta give him props while you still can
LEGEND! LEGITIMATELY LEGENDARY
Minus the injuries and this video part he also is getting vert into the olympics while throwing official vert contests through out the year bringing up more vert skaters. He kinda do deserve SOTY with all that in a year.

and it feels like yesterdays again , 80s90s2000s ❤
Insane. Just insane.
SOAT 🎉❤
Gino!! Yep I get it!!
Vert button broke
he is killer. i am over 50 and my new bmx video part is crazy also.
Tony for SOAT (skater of all time)
Tony should get the award. This is sick at any age. Give him the award for staying committed for long enough to be that good at that age. Not to mention all the other things hes done this year to benefit the community.
Skater of the decade....question is which one?
For what he did I dare to say Tony Hawk is underated!
Dude is hardcore. Tough mofo too!!!
The Goat
He should win! Doing that part after his injury and at his age is amazing!
those tricks are hard.
Gloryhog Tony at it again
Chris seems a bit sarcastic towards tony
Tony is sick at 55
Alright, he has my vote
Cab Sean Penn. \m/
Buy some CoQ10!
Everyone would be stoked except Duane Peters
Too much style ever!!!
I'm judging my pick on the part I've watched the most and that person is------------drumroll please------------Sheckler.
Hell no ! Wouldn’t be mad
he should, he won it first and he should get it one last time for being a true innovator
How tight is the name “Tony hawk”
Longevity matters more than tricks. Tony for soty
SOTY
Who is Gino???
d e v o 🤩
What happened to Caballero’s neck?
Million dollar question
Tony soty
He deserves SOTY.
He deserves better than SOTY. He deserves the equivalent of a Lifetime Achievement Award in Skateboarding Hall of Fame. He pioneered this shit son!!
Why is there one guy who talks but isn’t on camera?
Hawk for SOTY!
I feel like Tony needs an award just for him like SOTE (Skater of The Era)

Tom Knox. Don't get it
that's the issue with 9 club, Tony is legendary but in 2023 we have parts that actually blow your mind.
What was that old narcisist doing at the x games man holy shit 1000 skaters would kill to be there and everyone is cheering like look at tony go hes 100 years old hes so brave. Man he cannot stand to fade away into the mist he is determined to milk and burn himself out to nothing
Who is cutting these clips..... why am I forced to lesson to 1min of who subed.
vert tho lol
Tony already has soty... Why are we giving him soty in 2023? He's 55, you need to stop at some point.
Dude just leave it. You are 55. Any poser or person that doesn't skate knows of tony. Release your sick part at 55, but why join soty ?
at his age yes. But I think Danny killed this years ago. Danny is a way better vert skater....
Apples and oranges
@@rastaskate4546
True. But Danny can do any trick Tony can. You can't say the same thing the other way around.
@@jasonstinson3894 understand what you mean. From what i've seen it seems like Tony is a bit more technical on The coping while Danny is better with flips and gaps.
Is this not old? Didnt the nine club stop? If so whos posting these?
