The Tony Hawk Foundation has awarded over 500 skatepark grants—that’s an average of 10 new parks built in every state. Hawk and Donovan Strain teach you how to skate confidently at a new park, and how to make a difference with THF in your own community. (Originally aired on June 14.)

Hawk’s Battle Commander premieres Saturday!
