About the book

Hosoi

A mix of Tony Hawk and Brian Welch comes together in skateboarding legend Christian Hosoi, who reveals everything about his rise, fall, and redemption, in this amazing tell-all—from being named the greatest skater of all time to bottoming out on drugs to finally finding redemption through God.

Fans of Slater Kelly’s Pipe Dreams and Brian Welch’s Save Me From Myself, and followers of Tony Alva, Jay Adams, and Steve Caballero, will be captivated by this extraordinary, star-studded story, a gripping read that ranges from the heart of the 1980s skateboarding scene to the inside of a prison, from Hollywood parties to intense prayer sessions.

Hosoi: My Life as a Skateboarder Junkie Inmate Pastor takes readers to the heart of one little-known world after another—and he portrays them in all their gore and glory for all the world to see.


What does it take for the self-proclaimed god of skateboarding to hit rock bottom—and find his way back?


  • Style vs. Tech: Go inside the legendary rivalry with Tony Hawk, a clash of styles that defined a generation of skateboarding and pushed both icons to their limits.
  • 80s Skate Scene: A raw, behind-the-scenes look at the Dogtown-era of skateboarding, from the empty pools of Southern California to the drug-fueled Hollywood parties of the rich and famous.
  • Rise and Fall Narrative: Witness the harrowing descent into crystal meth addiction that cost Hosoi his career, his freedom, and nearly his life.
  • Redemption Story: A powerful Christian testimony of finding faith in a federal prison, and the unbelievable journey from inmate to pastor.
