Avril Lavigne wheeled out all of the nostalgia for her first-ever TikTok post.

Lavigne, 36, recreated her classic song "Sk8er Boi" by lip-syncing the lyrics and donning her own famous look from the time of the song's release in 2002. She wore black shorts, a black sleeveless t-shirt, and a striped tie, evoking her grunge look from the original music video.

Lavigne lip-synced the song in front of a stunning ocean view before she reached the chorus, where it cut to Tony Hawk, 53, wearing the same neck-tie.

Hawk then showed off his skills with a skateboard as the chorus played out. Lavigne captioned the video "He was a..." before tagging Hawk himself, who also posted the video to his account of 1.5 million followers.

Hawk went viral on TikTok last year after a young boy asked a delivery driver to send Hawk a skateboard he had gifted him. The delivery driver posted the TikTok to his account and after Hawk saw it, he sent the young skater boy one of his own skateboards.

"I just want to say thank you so much for the skateboard ... As a thank you gift I'm going to send you my skateboard," Hawk said in the TikTok.
