I don’t get a chance to watch movies too much – but I loves me a good inspiring movie! (I miss typos but that was not on of them). (That was.)
I was on a 13 hours flight to Dubai and watched one in between reading and writing.
It was about Tony Hawk, the skateboard champion. It was inspiring.
Determination. Passion. Getting unstuck. Persistence. Failure. Moving from an unbalanced obsessive life to being fulfilled in more facets of it. Aging. It’s all there in his story.
It’s called “Until the wheels come off”. Check it out.
I remember when he first accomplished that 900. Like breaking the 4 minute mile. Saw this movie too…think it did a good job showing the multi-faceted side of his life. We don’t always get to see the away from the camera side.
I loves me a good movie/book recommendation!
Thanks;)
I’ll have to check this out! I recommend The 33 (great book and movie) – its about the 2010 mining accident in Chile. Very inspiring story.
Thanks for the movie recommendation Larry. Sounds like you had an amazing trip to Dubai! I am actually going to see Tony Hawk speak at an EO conference next month. I’ll have to watch this movie before. Talk soon…
