Tony Hawk's Legendary '900' Skateboard Featured at Julien's Auctions Event

Tony Hawk's Historical '900' Skateboard at Julien's Auctions

In an exciting event for skate enthusiasts and collectors alike, Julien's Auctions is hosting a high-profile auction featuring the historical 2900' skateboard belonging to the legendary Tony Hawk. This auction, labeled as "TONY HAWK THE 900 COLLECTION," will showcase an exclusive collection of personal artifacts connected to Hawk's illustrious career, marking the first time these items will be offered to the public.

The auction is personally curated by Tony Hawk, who expressed his enthusiasm by stating, "This is the first time I'm personally involved in every aspect of selling my own items." With a total of 99 significant pieces selected for their personal relevance and appeal to collectors, this event is set to become a landmark in the world of sports memorabilia.

The Star of the Auction

At the heart of this collection lies the original "900" Falcon 2 skateboard from the 1999 X Games, which is famously known as the board on which Hawk executed the first successful 900-degree aerial spin in the history of the sport. This unique artifact, equipped with Fury trucks and unbranded wheels, is expected to fetch between $500,000 and $700,000. Comparatively, this skateboard holds cultural significance akin to Muhammad Ali's first heavyweight boxing gloves and Michael Jordan's iconic "Flu Game" sneakers, both of which symbolize pivotal moments in sports history.

Furthermore, collectors will have the opportunity to bid on other remarkable items, including a signed helmet worn by Hawk, knee pads, and Adio sneakers used during the historic 1999 X Games. Additional notable lots include his first professional skateboard from 1982 (Powell-Peralta), an Olympic torch relay outfit worn during the 2002 opening ceremony in Salt Lake City, a unique Simpsons-style jacket gifted post his 2003 series appearance, and a comprehensive collection of medals that narrate his legendary journey.
