Summary
If you were a 90s kid, you were around for the emergence of skateboarding as a sport, Tony Hawk as its king. Timing being everything, Tony didn't just master and innovate skateboarding, he also got on board the emerging art form of video games early, launching the lucrative Tony Hawk Pro-Skater series in 1999 - a franchise that continues to this day. While his success as an athlete and entrepreneur are impressive, his luck in love has been a bit more spotty, with three trashy divorces behind him, but a fourth marriage that seems to be going strong.
