I bought this game for Playstation 2 for the second time now. I got this game when it was new, then I sold it and now I have it again... It's one of my all time favorite skategames ever.

Absolutely agree with you. Believe it or not when I was young I was sponsored for skateboarding and did a few demo's with Tony Hawk when he was about 19 years old. I have the pictures hanging up in my son's room.

loool Shaun, I didn't know you was a skater
It was very populair in your generation I think.
Yes, it got popular when I was growing up, especially here in the states. I won 1st place in the State of Colorado 4 years in a row, street and half pipe

You name it, I could do it. Really no joke. A lot of the names they use for tricks today were invented by us (impossible, varial, Hard flip, finger flip darkside grab and a lot of half pipe tricks also)
I was sponsored by Airwalk, Tracker Trucks and some more. Can't remember them all now but I didn't pay for skating equipment ever because they all gave it to me to advertise for them when I did the demonstrations and contests. Oh to be 20 years younger again!!!!

O.K. here is one of me at a demo. This was in 1989 or 1990. That is a car I am jumping over. There was a ramp in front it.
I will upload more when I have time. I have to dig through a couple of shoe boxes filled with pictures to find the good ones of me with Tony Hawk, Mike Vallely, Lance Mountian and many more I can't remember right now. Did you notice the cool 80's skate wear?! Gotta love the hot pink!
