Last Trick NFT Collection
In December 2021, Tony Hawk released his Last Trick NFT collection via the Autograph marketplace. Autograph was launched by Tom Brady, a seven-time Super Bowl champion and sports legend.
Hawk and his team recently announced that they would auction the skateboards used during Hawk’s Last Tricks, and every NFT will feature physical skateboards signed by Hawk. Additionally, a lucky individual named Garry DeBoer was randomly chosen to win Hawk’s Frontside Cab Board.
Autograph shared the following tweet concerning the latest development, “Congrats to Autograph collector Garry DeBoer. A piece of Tony Hawk history is now yours to cherish forever. The remaining boards Tony used to retire five signature moves will be auctioned starting Tuesday of next week.”
Five skateboards will be featured in the latest installment of the Tony Hawk NFT Collection, and the first board is scheduled to be sent to DeBoer today, Monday, April 18, 2022.
