If you\u2019re a skating as well as a metaverse fan, you\u2019re in for a treat! Skating legend Tony Hawk has just announced that he\u2019s creating the metaverse\u2019s biggest skatepark in The Sandbox. The legendary skateboarder is the latest celebrity entrepreneur to get involved in the metaverse. It\u2019s safe to say that his project is one of the most innovative metaverse ventures yet!<\/p>\n\n<\/picture>Skating fans rejoice! The Sandbox will now have a bonafide skatepark!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
Tony Hawk\u2019s metaverse skatepark: What we know so far<\/h2>\n
The skatepark will launch in collaboration with the NFT platform Autograph on The Sandbox. It is set to span 36 parcels of LAND, making it the largest virtual skatepark in web3. In addition to the metaverse skatepark, Tony Hawk will also drop avatar NFTs that will serve as a nod to his outfit during the 1999 X Games.<\/p>\n
When commenting about this partnership, Tony Hawk said: \u201cI have been a fan of new technology all of my life, from the first video games and home computers with CGI capabilities. So I am fascinated by the metaverse, and excited to bring our culture into the virtual landscape of The Sandbox.\u201d<\/p>\n
This isn\u2019t the first time the skating entrepreneur has dipped his toes in the virtual sphere. His \u201cTony Hawk Pro Skater\u201d gaming series, which debuted in 1999, is one of the best-selling video game franchises of the early 2000s. So far, it has grossed over $1.4 billion. Therefore, it\u2019s safe to say the legendary skateboarder knows a thing or two about making virtual ventures work!<\/p>\n
About the skating legend<\/h2>\n
Tony Hawk is a pioneer of vertical skateboarding and is now the owner of the skateboard company \u201cBirdhouse.\u201d Known for completing the first-documented \u201c900\u201d trick, Hawk has gone from strength to strength and is now a household name.<\/p>\n
This isn\u2019t his first web3 rodeo. Earlier this year, he dropped the Tony Hawk\u2019s \u2018The Last Trick Skateboard Collection\u2019 on Autograph.<\/p>\n
