HBO has released a documentary on Pro-Skater, Tony Hawk, titled: “Tony Hawk: Until the wheels fall off.”

The documentary follows the life of Tony Hawk, his struggles, resilience and rise to fame.

Tony Hawk, nicknamed “Birdman”, is an American Professional Skater and entrepreneur. He is the owner of the Skate Board Company, “Birdhouse”.

Tony is the Pioneer of Vertical Skateboarding, a form of skateboarding done on skate ramps.

He won many skateboarding competitions during the 1980s and ’90s and has about 73 titles to his name. He was the national skateboard association’s world champion and was named top vert skater for 12 consecutive years (1984 – 1996).

Hawk has invented more than 100 skateboarding moves and tricks including, the ollie-to-Indy, the gymnast plant, the frontside 540-rodeo flip, and the Saran wrap. He also landed the first documented “900“, a skateboarding trick that requires the skateboarder to do an aerial spin of 2 and a half revolutions. He completed the move at the X Games V in 1999, after 10 failed attempts.
