It’s on my way to my house already, and as a thank you gift I’m gonna send you my skateboard, this one right here that I’m riding,” Hawk said, adding that he hopes to meet Cooper sometime.
Hawk later left a comment to the video: “Thanks boys! I’ll send something for Tucker too. And thank YOU Mikail for connecting all of us.”Hawk’s package with three brand new skateboards arrived at the boys’ house Thursday morning.
