Tony Hawk was the first skater to land a 720 in competition. Now Guy Khury is the first to land a 1080 in competition and Tony Hawk was there to witness it. Pure awesome.

Oops. To be fair he was the first to do a 720 too...
I was also wrong about Guy being the first to 1080 in competition. It's just the first time it's been done at the X-Games.
Same with Tony Hawk's 900. He had already lost the competition, he was just attempting to be the first person to land it. Took him several tries as well before he stuck it

I never realized/caught this and now I am irrationally irritated that such a ridiculous sequence of lines were repeated throughout the writing and recording process and not changed.
