POCATELLO, Idaho (KIFI) - Pocatello Boarding School co-founder and owner Rudie Aguiar is competing for the opportunity of a lifetime, a chance to skate with skateboarding legend Tony Hawk.

Aguiar is in the quarterfinals of the Skatepark Hero competition through The Skatepark project that is run by Hawk. The winner gets $10,000 and a skate session with the legend himself.
