For some Mat Hoffman is merely a video game character, for others including myself, he has been the truest living definition of a pioneer. Known for always going higher, spinning faster and taking the sport of BMX into completely new realms where many others simply didn’t see humanly possible. His career has spanned multiple decades and I couldn’t be happier to see a film finally being made about the man, the myth, the Hoffman!
About The Film:
In 1985, at the tender age of 13, Mat Hoffman entered into the BMX circuit as an amateur, and by 16 he had risen to the professional level. Throughout his storied career, Hoffman has ignored conventional limitations, instead, focusing his efforts on the purity of the sport and the pursuit of “what’s next.” His motivations stem purely from his own ambitions, and even without endorsements, cameras, fame and fans, Hoffman would still be working to push the boundaries of gravity. Academy Award nominee Spike Jonze and extreme sport fanatic Johnny Knoxville, along with director Jeff Tremaine, will showcase the inner workings and exploits of the man who gave birth to “Big Air.”
