The star athlete has had a long and successful career. However, he recently incurred a life-changing injury that he’s now slowly and steadily recovering from. Back in March 2022, Hawk broke his femur while performing a skateboarding trick. After surgery and some physiotherapy, the star is back up on the ramp, albeit, with some restrictions on his movement.

While it will take the icon some time to completely bounce back, the accident hasn’t deterred his spirit. Skateboarding is Hawk’s passion, and his achievements so far are a testament to his love for the sport.
