Transcript
[Tony Hawk (drawn to resemble Hairy) and Cueball are talking and facing each other. Hawk is holding his skateboard, standing to the left of Cueball. An image above the heads of Hawk and Cueball depicts Hawk doing two 360-degree turns on a skateboard, indicated by motion lines.]
Tony Hawk: Something weird I've noticed is that if I do a 360 ollie, I land backward. I have to do a 720 to land going forward.
[Caption below the panel:]
