“I can’t believe what I am seeing here in this community. It is one of the most amazing skateboard sites I have ever been to. The experience of seeing these young people from disadvantaged backgrounds is something that will stay with me forever” (Tony Hawk)

On Saturday, Tony went to the official launch of the Laureus Sport for Good SA project partnership with Indigo Youth Movement in Isithumba, SA. Tony told us he was incredibly impressed with the Indigo Youth Movement on the outskirts of Durban where he visited a Zulu village whose centre piece is a skateboard ramp. He showed the local kids some of his legendary skills on the ramp and gave them a few tips we reckon they’ll never forget. We’re not sure how the man has so much energy but he skated, tweeted and chatted his way through the day and provided a huge amount of inspiration for the young South African skaters.
