Furlong is known for his talents on vert ramps. Renowned for his style on his board, he made a name for himself throughout the 1990s as one of the best up-and-coming amateur vert skaters. Early in 1998 Furlong moved from Augusta, Georgia, where he grew up from age 6, to Tampa, Florida, to pursue skateboarding as the sport was growing. A few months later Anthony won the prestigious Tampa Am vert competition. Later in the year he attended the Goodwill Games in New York City. While there he won the amateur street and vert competitions. At this same event, he asked one of his idols, Tony Hawk, if he would be his partner in the next days "Pro Doubles contest". To Furlong's surprise, Hawk agreed. Together, they won first place. Though Furlong did not accept the prize money, word spread that he had entered a pro event thus forcing him to move into the professional ranks.
