Living Proof New York

Full episode on Patreon. Originally coming up with the Shep Dawgs crew out of Southern California. Hawk, alongside Taylor Kirby, Rowan Zorilla and Jake Hill, gained recognition from the videos that showcased the raw energy of the crew.
Those videos played a crucial role in his rise within the scene, eventually leading to him turning pro for the iconic Baker Skateboards in 2013, a brand known for shaping modern street skating culture.
Outside of skateboarding, Hawk practices Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, a martial art that gained recognition in Brazil, Japan and the United States during the early MMA era of “no-rules” fights.
He speaks on the idea of longevity within professional skateboarding, how training martial arts has helped his mental, physical and emotional, how he got on Baker Skateboards and more.
