Tony Hawk: Until the Wheels Fall Off

Good watch if you're looking to witness: passion, discipline, determination, faith, hope, friendship, love. Confusion, loneliness, myopia.

Pretty well done doc. I gave it a 10 because I love Mullen. From my bias, he really stole the show. Layin down wisdom like it's his job. I love how they relate. It feels like they're both on the autism spectrum a little bit; I mention because it's a good thing and interesting.

Hawk's kid Riley? Seemed really interesting too. It's a shame there wasn't more of him, but all of the ex-pros were great too.

If you don't know what it looks or feels like to drop into a 9 or 12 foot vert, or crash and burn on a 6 foot bowl made of cement, you will still understand what Tony Hawk's life was like, from this documentary.

It's very genuine, and tells a great story of one of the best skateboarders, and second generation pioneers of all of skateboarding.

So good. I'm a 90s teen and this was such a heartbreaking and heartwarming view into one of my icons. It was done beautifully and I just wanted to hug him!

I've always had so much admiration for the world of skating even though I've never attempted anything more than turning a corner on a board. Traditional sports are full of excellence and consistence when it comes to performing. Skating takes all that to the next level and adds a level of grit, determination and persistence I could only dream of acquiring.

Hawk's story, and in the broader narrative the history of skating, is one of passion so pure it's motivation at the highest level for anyone who's ever wanted to achieve something in their lifetime. The characters the Duplass brothers have assembled here do a phenomenal job rounding out Tony's life and focusing in on true themes of self acceptance, ambition and the human experience through achievement in sport.

Critics have complained about the lack of focus on Tony Hawk specifically, but I found this to be so engaging with the broader things of what Tony has valued in the world, allowing others to also put forth their perspectives on his life. Wonderful piece for anyone who's sat on the sidelines like me. Hope to pick up a Pro Skater again to really pump that nostalgia back into my veins.

The wheels haven't fallen off yet. Keep riding.

This is what skate is all about... recently he broke his leg skating, 3 weeks later he was walking to present an Oscar. He just wont quit, he's already skating again because he has set himself to this demo. This Man is is over 50! He should be in the MCU!
