Reaching the Sky, a Discovery+ Original Series featuring skateboarding star Sky Brown, was launched on July 21. It charts the 12-year-old’s journey from a baby-boarder to an Olympic gold medal hopeful. The 45-minute film includes never-before-seen footage of family time, skateboarding training and surfing practice sessions, giving viewers a unique insight into the life and personality of this talented young athlete, whose skill, resilience and ambition belie her years. It also documents Sky’s battle back to fitness after sustaining life-threatening injuries in a training accident in May 2020.
Sky Brown says, “It was so much fun to film and I got to do some really cool stuff. Training with Nyjah Huston was crazy as he’s so amazing, and surfing with Rob Machado was unreal.”
