Tony Tave in X Games 16: Real Street

At any given time, Tony Tave’s house in sunny, suburban San Clemente, Calif., is home to a rotating group of prominent skaters, and the party never stops. Born in Long Beach, Tave still has close ties to home and enjoys spending time with his ethnically diverse family (Tave’s background includes Caucasian, Hawaiian, African American and Japanese). He has been riding a skateboard for 10 years, has one of the best nollie inward heels in the game and just landed in his second pro model shoe from C1RCA, the TT2.
