* The very first 'Hoon Run' took place in the summer of 1999, from Sydney to Melbourne. We've since taken the Run from Perth to Portland, and everywhere in between. We released our first video, 'Hoon Run * The Movie', in 2005. We started making Hoon Wheels in 2006, the same year we released our 2nd DVD, 'Hoon * The Sequel'. In 2010 we became HOON SKATEBOARDS, and the 'Run' continues . . .
