Tony Hawk Nsp May 2026

If you’re lucky enough to find a Tony Hawk NSP deck at a garage sale or vintage shop, buy it. Just don’t expect to skate it—hang it on the wall.

When skaters hear the name Tony Hawk, they think of the Birdman, the 900, and the legendary Pro Skater video game series. But for collectors and those who lived through the late 1980s and early 1990s, “Tony Hawk NSP” represents a specific, crucial, and often misunderstood chapter in skateboard history. What Does NSP Stand For? NSP stands for New School Productions . Founded by pioneer skater and entrepreneur Mark “Gator” Rogowski (before his infamous criminal conviction), NSP was a short-lived but influential skateboard company based in San Diego. The brand emerged during skateboarding’s volatile transition from the “old school” (wide, flat-tailed boards) to the “new school” (shorter decks with exaggerated kicktails and nose shapes—the direct ancestors of modern popsicle sticks). tony hawk nsp
