Yesterday ( 3/25/2022) Mat Hoffman put a post on Facebook saying that his first 900 happened 33 years ago today. On that day in 1989, I happened to be a cameraman for Unreel Productions, shooting video of the 2-Hip King of Vert in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. That's where Mat landed that first 900, so I got it on video (14:43). Joe Johnson, riding for GT at that time (after riding for Haro), also pulled his first double tailwhip air that day (11:31). Some days being a cameraman was epic. That was one of those days. Here's part of my footage from that day, with narrated by Eddie Roman and some friends for the 2-Hip video, Ride Like a Man.
I have a new blog about side hustles, gig jobs, small business, and making a living in the recession. Check it out:
