Watch: Robbie Maddison Surfs a Motocross Bike
The legendary moto innovator has redefined the term "no limits" in motocross in DC's Pipe Dream.
We all should be used to having Robbie Maddison blow our minds at this point. He is a man who makes his entire living on doing things on a motorcycle that no one would ever think about. But now, he has outdone himself in a fashion that is downright incomprehensible. Witness the majesty that is "Pipe Dream," probably the most innovative action sports film project that you will see for a long time. Surfing and moto have never come together like this.

The collab video with DC Shoes was done in Tahiti, on a regular KTM250SX with a couple of custom mods, allowing the bike to hydroplane for long distances without that whole sinking thing (although inflatable floats were attached to the bike, just in case).
Robbie Maddison is actually quite the surfer, as often happens growing up in Australia. But the waves in Tahiti are no laughing matter — any surfer will attest to the power of the ocean, and the sea is a cruel mistress when double overhead swells rain down on you, no matter what. Maddo’s ride on his 250 on waves that even pro surfers would think twice about is downright ridiculous. This is a man who knows no boundaries and pushes the possibilities of his craft far, far beyond anyone else in his realm.
