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.

As we previously reported, the leg injury Hawk suffered back on March 7, 2022, was so bad he initially wondered if he will ever skate again. But, he made incredible progress since having surgery to repair the damage.

Congratulations to the Birdman on finally getting back to skateboarding even though his condition was fatal.
