A MAN critically injured while riding a skateboard in a suspected hit-and-run in Sydney's east isn't showing any signs of improvement.

Christopher Rhodes, 26, was hit by a car while skating home after work down a steep, wet Bronte street in the early hours of Wednesday morning.

Just hours later a suspect was stopped by police in Chatswood and questioned for 12 hours, before being charged with drug offences and released.

His car has been seized by forensic specialists and had some signs of damage.

The victim was taken to St Vincent's Hospital with head injuries after being found by paramedics lying unconscious in the middle of the road.

A hospital spokesperson told AAP on Thursday the young man's condition hasn't improved.

"He's still very critical," he said.

"He hasn't really improved."

Friends have left condolence messages on his brother's Facebook pages after he changed his profile picture to a happy snap of the two together.

"Come onnnnnnnnn Chris. I know you can, I know you can, I know you can. If YOU can't then there's not much hope for the rest of us," one friend posted.

Mr Rhodes' brother had been by the young bartender's side in hospital after the accident and was reportedly trying to contact their mother, who is believed to be abroad.

A former Randwick Boys High School student, Mr Rhodes is well-liked by his colleagues at the Sydney pub where he works, and was often the "life of the party".
