Tony Hawk, the man who invented well over 100 vert tricks, a legend helping to carve the path of skateboarding, founder of Birdhouse skateboards, and now the leader of a hit new animated cartoon series.

Tony has teamed up with Laughing Dragon Studios to develop a brand new cartoon series titled ‘Skatebirds’ which as you could assume is an animated bit about skateboarding birds.

The show's producers say that the series will aim to "celebrate skateboarding’s playful community while emphasizing its adventurous nature,".

There isn’t a set release date for the new series yet but Hawk himself said he's "excited to partner up with Laughing Dragon Studios for this unique series. Skateboarding unites communities, gets kids active, and builds a sense of self-confidence while providing opportunities that can be limitless. Keep an eye out for our show, which will be entertaining for a global audience… regardless of whether they skate or not."
