UPDATE: Tony Hawk Skates the Warehouse From ‘THPS1’

Tony Hawk Skates the Warehouse from #THPS 1+2 ... In Real Life

We swore up and down that we weren’t going to get caught up in the video game hype. But this is too good to pass up. Activision made an exact replica of the Warehouse from Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1, and had the Birdman come through and bless it with a session. They even tapped Greg Hunt to direct the video. This should make just about everyone nostalgic. The new game is out now.

UPDATE 09.05.20: Vans just dropped this B.T.S. clip, which gives the full story on what went into pulling off the Warehouse replica session, including the challenges of filming it during COVID-19. This is hands down the best piece of marketing to come out via the THPS 1+2 launch. You’ve gotta tip your hat to whoever thought of this.
