While many shopping malls and other community establishments have banned skateboarding, this fall you’ll be able to grind your way with Tony Hawk during an upcoming tour. The Hawkman won’t be making personal appearances however, but this could be the next best thing as Activision is taking Tony Hawk: Shred on a national mall tour – but totally unlike those old mall tours with Tiffany and Debbie Gibson.
The 10-city Mall Tour kicked off this past weekend, and is giving fans a chance to jump on the game’s unique board controller and experience the thrill of skate and snowboarding. The best part is that no one will chase you away for being possessed to skate.
Upcoming dates include:
- Rockaway Town Square, New York, NY – October 23 – 24
- Plymouth Meeting Mall, Philadelphia, PA – October 30 – 31
- Virginia Center Commons, Washington, DC – November 6 –7
- Orland Square, Chicago, IL – November 13 – 14
- Mall of Georgia, Atlanta, GA – November 20 – 21
- Katy Mills, Houston, Texas – November 27 – 28
- Irving Mall, Dallas, Texas – December 4 – 5
- Brea Mall, Los Angeles, Calif. – December 11 – 12
- Stoneridge Mall, San Francisco, Calif. – December 18 – 19
Shred will be in stores on October 26.

After the last game it looked like the Hawkman’s wings were clipped for good, as Tony Hawk Ride wasn’t so much a thrill ride as outright spill. But you can’t keep a good skater down, and the champ of the board is rising from the ashes, proving he’s a video game phoenix. All indications say it looks like he’ll back in full video game form with the upcoming Tony Hawk: SHRED, in part because this arcade style game isn’t just about the usual sidewalk surfing either. This time the game includes both skateboarding and snowboarding action, and more importantly puts players on a truly revolutionized controller to get the wannabes off the couch and on a virtual deck.
