Tony Hawk's Photo Raises Safety Questions | ABC News - Yahoo! News: At first glance, one may revel in the glee and exuberance of childhood innocence in the photo professional skateboarder Tony Hawk posted to his Instagram earlier this week. Hawk is seen swinging his delighted 4-year-old daughter, Kadence Clover, into the air as they skateboard together at his 5,000-square-foot skate park in his backyard.
But on closer inspection, you'll see Kadence dangling in the air without a helmet.
Hawk's caption: "Updated frontside fling photo via @mikeblake. She is learning to skate on her own, so we might not be doing this much longer."
The photo, which soon went viral, sparked instant uproar on Twitter and Instagram.
In response to the angry messages he received from some of his 3 million-plus followers, Hawk posted another image on his Instagram, along with the caption, "For those that say I endanger my child: it's more likely that you will fall while walking on the sidewalk than I will while skating with my daughter."
