Seventeen years after he landed his first 900 (that's spinning two and a half times in the air) at the X Games in San Francisco, Tony Hawk grabbed his board to give it another go.
At the age of 48. Why? As the skateboard legend says in the above video, "Because I feel like I can." His son Spencer, who was there to witness Hawk's first 900 in 1999, was there to witness this attempt as well.
