Imagine Michael Jordan and a bunch of his teammates dropping by your local basketball court and asking if they can play a little three-on-three.
For skateboarders, that's pretty much what happened during 'Tony Hawk's Secret Skatepark Tour': Tony and several of his best friends - including Rodney Mullen, Bam Margera, Bob Burnquist, Shaun White, Kerry Getz, Ryan Sheckler, Alex Chalmers, Mike Vallely, Donny Barley, Brian Sumner and Mike Escamilla - showed up unannounced at skateparks throughout the West and sessioned alongside whoever happened to be there. It was similar to 'Tony's Gigantic Skatepark Tour', but with none of the advance hoopla or performance pressure attached to a traditional demo. Which meant that the pros were loose and absolutely ripping. Of course, a film crew came along to document the whole thing - including the surprise on the locals' faces as the bus arrived and the pros piled out. In some cases, word would spread faster than a computer virus, and a throng of spectators would gather. It's all here - unscripted, unauthorized, unprecedented.
