Tony Hawk teaching his daughter to skate is the sweetest dad moment
Plenty of kids give their parents a few extra gray hairs when they take up skateboarding. That's even true for the Tony Hawk household, apparently.
The legendary skateboarder delighted his Twitter fans on Saturday with a heartwarming father-daughter moment. Kadence Hawk, 10, is just starting to pick up her dad's hobby, and this video shows her conquering her fear of falling while the senior Hawk cheers her on.
The video only shows half the story. As Papa Hawk himself notes in the accompanying tweet, "I might have been more nervous than she was."

In this moment, Hawk ceases to be the greatest skateboarder in the sport's history; he's just a nervous dad, quietly cheering on his daughter and hoping she comes out of the moment a stronger and more confident young person.
It's a very sweet family moment, and Hawk's decision to share it is one of the reasons he's become such a beloved figure on social media.
