In 2002, Hawk started a show tour featuring [[freestyle motocross]], skateboarding, and [[BMX]]. It started in Las Vegas and went on to 31 cities around the U.S. and eventually to [[Six Flags]] amusement parks.<ref>{{Cite news |url=http://www.mtv.com/news/1471951/tony-hawk-catches-air-on-boom-boom-huckjam-goes-underground-in-game/ |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170206184557/http://www.mtv.com/news/1471951/tony-hawk-catches-air-on-boom-boom-huckjam-goes-underground-in-game/ |url-status=dead |archive-date=February 6, 2017 |title=Tony Hawk Catches Air On Boom Boom Huckjam, Goes Underground In Game |newspaper=MTV News |access-date=February 13, 2017 |language=en}}</ref>

A series of amusement park rides known as [[Tony Hawk's Big Spin]] were built in three [[Six Flags]] parks in 2007 and 2008.<ref>{{cite magazine |url=https://www.wired.com/underwire/2007/04/tony_hawk_build/ |title=Tony Hawk Builds a Roller Coaster |magazine=Wired |date=April 20, 2007 |access-date=August 15, 2012}}</ref> The ride was originally billed as the "Tony Hawk experience" and was designed to have the look and feel of a giant red-and-black skatepark. It offered a full "extreme sports" experience, with monitors in the queue lines displaying highlights of the history of action sports and a large spinning Tony Hawk figure crowning the ride. In 2010, Six Flags cancelled its license and the rides were renamed to Pandemonium.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.ultimaterollercoaster.com/coasters/yellowpages/coasters/pandemonium_sfdk.shtml |title=Pandemonium - Six Flags Discovery Kingdom - Roller Coasters |publisher=Ultimaterollercoaster.com |date=May 23, 2008 |access-date=August 15, 2012}}</ref> The ride at [[Six Flags Discovery Kingdom]] was moved to Six Flags Mexico in 2012. Additionally, a water park ride called Tony Hawk's Half pipe (renamed The Half pipe in 2011) was opened at [[Six Flags America]] in [[Bowie, Maryland]].<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.sixflags.com/america/attractions/halfpipe |title=Halfpipe |website=Six Flags America |access-date=February 13, 2017 |archive-date=February 14, 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170214010204/https://www.sixflags.com/america/attractions/halfpipe |url-status=dead}}</ref>
