Speaking

Robbie Maddison is a world-record-holding extreme sports pioneer, Hollywood stunt performer, and one of the most compelling keynote speakers in the fields of calculated risk, innovation, and high performance.

He became the first rider to break the 330-foot motorcycle distance barrier and later recorded a personal best of 396 feet—flying farther than the length of a football field. He headlined three record-breaking live ESPN New Year's Eve spectaculars, including his iconic 100-foot jump onto the Arc de Triomphe replica at Paris Las Vegas before descending the structure in front of a global television audience. His career has also included backflipping London's Tower Bridge, jumping Greece's Corinth Canal, and riding a specially engineered motorcycle across the waves at Tahiti's legendary Teahupo'o reef break.

In Hollywood, Maddison has performed as a stunt double for Daniel Craig in Skyfall, Tom Hardy in Venom, Vin Diesel in xXx: Return of Xander Cage, Jason Statham in The Expendables 4, and Kevin Hart in Jumanji, earning a reputation as one of the industry's premier precision motorcycle stunt performers.

On stage, Robbie is far more than a motocross storyteller. His presentations offer a rare, behind-the-scenes look into how elite performers make critical decisions under extreme pressure, engineer success where no roadmap exists, build high-performance teams, and execute when the consequences of failure are significant. Every lesson is drawn from real-world experiences where preparation, leadership, innovation, and trust determined the outcome.

His signature keynote, Calculated Risk: How to Fly Forward When Failure Is Not an Option, provides audiences with practical frameworks for leading through uncertainty, embracing innovation, building resilient teams, and performing at the highest level when the stakes are greatest.
