Picked up the VHS a couple of weeks back for 50p as it had Christian Slater in it and have watched it a few times now (it oozes 80s cheese), but doing some looking up it turns out Tony Hawk is in it, but I still can't work out which character he's playing, IMDB says "Buddy" and Tony Hawk's picture is of him in the past couple of years so I can't match his face up. I've ruled out two, Christian Slater (obviously ) and the kid that lives in that section of sewer pipe, which one is Tony Hawk?
(The Wizard, who might be getting four copies of the R1 DVD soon, they've been fetching upwards of $150 on eBay...)

Hey Thats a classic movie, I had the chance to get the DVD for like 10 bucks about 2 years ago but I didn't cause I had it on video, what was I thinking. Anyways TONY HAWK is the PIZZA HUT guy. He is also David Spade's stunt double on Police Academy 4. Eric

Tony Hawk is one of the skaters in the pool in the beginning of the film, and he's also in the end when Christian Slater gets all the skaters together to help him.
He looks real young in the film, he has blonde hair and that great old 80s lopsided skater haircut. He looks a lot different now.
