The Birdhouse skateboards CEO's recovery from a broken leg continued when the legendary skateboarder actually rode a skateboard at his private training facility.

The 53-year-old pro skater posted footage of the incredible clip on his social media page showing him riding his skateboard and kick-turning on his quarter pipes.

"I have been feeling discouraged lately but this got me fired up," Hawk said.
