Tony has talked about how the early 90s were HARD for him financially, since vert wasn’t as popular as it was in the 80s. He wasn’t making that bread like he was in those Powell Peralta days! The X Games in many ways helped save Tony’s career and brought vert back to life!
@fresnosean379, thank you for uploading this and other stuff from the early days of X Games. I had never seen the interview Hawk had with one of the X Games correspondents after his winning run in this one as well as X Games 3 San Diego 1997.
That ramp is horrible. It might not seem like a big deal but every click you hear is robbing their speed. It doesn’t sound like a new ramp, it sounds like a that’s been sitting in the elements for a few years.
