This is my first FAQ and I still don't really know why I write this... Maybe because I enjoy playing THPS2 so much! Ok, please DON'T e-mail me anything about typos and suggestions or anything. If you need to contact me about it, don't do it! The only e-mail I will be glad to recieve is e-mail where you ask if you can post my FAQ on your webpage. ===================== 1.1| FAQ Information ===================== Information on character FAQ: This character FAQ contains bio, stats and special tricks and more on all characters including Spiderman and Mindy.

You'll see how much flesh he's left behind becoming the most influential skateboarder in history. He lost some perfecting the first 900°. More went while creating 50+ signature moves and winning 12 world championships. The father to two boys and modern skateboarding, Tony makes his home in his native SoCal.

Think Koston, because he rides like anybody and nobody else. He'll bust any pro's signature trick with uncanny similarity then transition into the eponymous K-Grind.
