Mat Hoffman made a trip to the Gold Coast in 1991 to do some demos. Chris Miller and some other pro skaters joined him for the trip along with some Australian BMX riders including Trevor king, Scott Edington and Peter James. This footage was shot by Dave Scott on an old Panasonic portapak camera system that was pretty old at the time. I’ve tried to fix up the quality as much as I can but this is as good as it gets. And if you look close when Mat crashes his 900 he completely twists his frame! Enjoy!

what a legend
Just when I thought I'd seen all the footage of Mat, this comes along to remind us all how gnarly he was and still is, on a vert ramp! 32 years ago too. Thanks for posting.
The MAN, the MYTH,the MAT! I met him at a comp in Virginia. My favorite rider from any era

I saw matt Hoffman doing tricks on a half pipe in Cranford new jersey in nineteen ninety that was the first time I see him and I'm a black guy that use to ride b.m.x bike back then
