Tony Hawk

In a parallel narrative, narrated by Hawk himself, he unveils the loneliness, self-doubt, and criticism that came with the fame. The pressure leading up to his iconic 900-degree spin trick in 1999 in San Francisco, his tryst with quick money as a teenager, confessions of infidelity, and the health consequences from past injuries, all keep us at the edge of our seat throughout the runtime.

Hidden in these narratives are foresights about the sport’s future. Be it Hawk’s father’s last words predicting “better days for the sport” or his family’s view that skateboarding might not really be a sport fit for the Olympics, these Easter eggs make for an engaging watch in hindsight. Skateboarding fan or not, we suggest you add the documentary to your watchlist because as Hawk put it in an official Olympics interview last month, “Skating has finally come of age… it’s been long overdue.”
