Mat Hoffman put together this rad little video to say Happy Birthday with footage that spans most of his career and even a few before he ever started his Pro career. Hit play and enjoy! Happy Birthday, DMC!

Mat Hoffman – Backyard Sessions 2016

1 Comment

We’re not sure how many times Mat Hoffman has been told he will never ride a bike again in his lifetime, but so far those doctors have been wrong and we’re more than stoked on that. Mat just dropped a compilation of footage he collected from some of his backyard ramp sessions that he has been getting in this year, along with a few random clips from Woodward’s Mega Ramp and a few other ramps. This video is loaded up with a TON of different trick combos (Not to mention a bunch Mat invented over the years) with helmet cam and second angles mixed in. We got some good laughs out of the commentary, too… Mat literally calls himself out on a few of the tricks mid-air. This kicks a lot of ass, so hit play and check it out!

We want to hear from you! Let us know what you think in the comments below!

We always love hearing Mat Hoffman stories. The crew at Vice Sports caught up with Mat to talk about a bunch of his different injuries like shattering his shoulder on theSecret Ninja Big Air Ramp, the off the record Lars Ligament surgery, a time the rails on his seat blew threw his nut sack and more. This is hilarious and amazing. Check it out!

Mat Hoffman – Secret Ninja Big Air Ramp GoPro Edit

Leave a Comment

Mat Hoffman reminding everyone that he has not given up on pushing his riding to the highest levels he has ever gone.

In a world of GoPro POV videos from nibbler jibbler street videos and skatepark sessions, it’s always rad to see something really crazy from somebody’s point of view. Last year we caught up with Mat Hoffman for an interview where we first found out about the massive ramp that Danny Way had built and Mat was riding, and calling the Secret Ninja Big Air Ramp. Since that day we’ve been anxiously waiting to see the footage from it. Thanks to X Games, we’ve been seeing some of the footage over the course of the week. Below you can find links to the 3 videos they released.

Danny Way – The Quest For High Air

The Quest For High Air – Reflections

We figured that was all the footage from it… Then this morning we woke up to an email from the Condor himself with a link to a video he put together from some of the GoPro footage he collected during his sessions. This has footage from some of the first runs all the way up until the crash that obliterated his collarbone. Needless to say, after watching this we’re still completely blown away by just how big Mat has gone! This is an absolute MUST SEE. The big brother of the Secret Ninja Ramp is an absolute monster of a ramp.

WATCH: More Mat Hoffman Videos!

“Here is my DIY edit I made riding Danny’s ramp. No interviews, I used a POV and then placed a few unmanned GoPro’s around and let them shoot continuously while I rode. This is my original edit I’ve been holding onto for about a year. It’s not the best quality; I just shot it to document the ride, since I went out their solo. Then Stew and Alyssa added to it for the recent posts on X Games, so I’ve kept this one out of sight until now.

The third part for “The Quest For High Air” series is now online! The other days we got Mat Hoffman‘s perspective ( WATCH: Mat Hoffman – The Quest For High Air ), then yesterday we got Danny Way’s perspective ( WATCH: Danny Way – The Quest For High Air ). Today, we get Mat and Danny together talking about the big ramp and what motivated them to give it a go and to keep pushing each other to new limits. This is absolutely amazing.

“Big air legends Mat Hoffman and Danny Way sit down for a roundtable discussion about their never ending quest for big air on BMX bikes and skateboards.” – X Games
