Breaking News von dem Lakai Footwear World Summit. Dort wurde der legendäre Tony Hawk offiziell als neuer Teamfahrer vorgestellt. Bereits am 6. September berichtete Boardstation von dem Deal:

In a recent press conference Tony addressed the room of journalists, and answered their toughest questions to topics such as „Favorite Shep Dawg,“ „Cost to Buy Lakai,“ „2017 SOTY,“ and more.

Riley Hawk was reported to have been accompanying the Birdman, and was surely involved in inking the deal.
