“To those seeing pics of me using a cane and assuming it is a permanent situation: I had my femur surgically realigned 2 weeks ago in order to get back to what I love doing at a high level,” he wrote on Twitter over the weekend.

“And I’m taking it slow this time around. See you on the other side.”

A few weeks before, Tony was seen skating alongside floats at Detroit’s Thanksgiving parade.

“To the hundreds (thousands?) of people that yelled ‘do a kickflip’ today: my apologies; it was hard enough skating through the whole parade on my misaligned femur. Surgery is scheduled for next week to put it back in place 🤞🏽,” he wrote at the time.

“Round 2,” he shared on Instagram along with a photo of his X-ray.

We are wishing the best to Tony Hawk in his continued recovery.
