Product Description

With this all-access pass, Tony Hawk shares the joy, the exhaustion, the adrenaline, and the pain of life on the road. Between Boardslides and Burnout puts you right on the edge of the ramp and on the road with him -- from competitions to demos, to store openings, to autograph signings, to movie sets, and back home.

Never before has a professional skateboarder offered such a complete look into his life -- and mind.

5 out of 5 starsa great book to read in your spare time, 2003-01-03
this book is really great. i bought it because it has many pictures, it is very detailed, and it shows how difficult one day could be for the great Tony Hawk.Tony is a big inspiration to many people including me. So, if your child wants to read something that shows how much work they should put into a day, they should read this book and see how much Tony works for people every day. Anyone who likes skateboarding should buy this book.

5 out of 5 starsThe best book in the world!!!, 2002-10-18
This book displayed an exuberant amount of beauty and color about skateboarding as it is. He has been my idol since I first learned to walk and after reading this book it has brought up my hopes of being a carnie. I beleive whoever reads this book will have the same opinion. It has changed my life's perspective on how tennis players are so awesome!!...
oh by the way, Paige, you're hot

5 out of 5 starsMom says 'Hurray!', 2002-09-18
Finally, a behind the scenes look at my favorite extreme sport figure. Not only do my kids love Tony BUT I LOVE TONY.
He makes it all look so easy, but reading his tour diary gave me a real sense of what its like to be one of the top skateboarders. All those trips and award shows and broken bones and screaming mobs-- and the proud and loving father of his own kids, while bringing so much fun to everyone elses life.
Maybe I shouldn't say this, but I remember Tony from when I was a kid. I used to skate around on my little yellow banana board.
Thanks Tony for so many years of great fun, cool tricks and for the glimpse into your life. Keep it up! And GREAT PHOTOS!!! Sure to please your favorite skateboard fan!
