"During the production of LIFTOFF, our equipment, crew and athletes truly pushed their limits, capturing and creating a visually epic program that illustrates the skills needed for both extreme sports. Outside Television's growing network and passionate audience make them a great fit for our special brand of adventure reality content," said Miranda Winters, the President of The Go Big Project. "We are proud and excited to have the series featured on Outside TV, and are looking forward to sharing these stories with the world."

The show's main characters are Jokke Sommer, a Norwegian native, best known as an extremely talented wingsuit pilot and overall dare devil; and Niccolo Porcella, a Maui born, Sardinia raised, surfer and all around boundary pusher best known for riding some of the largest waves in the world. Jokke's Youtube channel hosts videos of his daring feats, some of which have garnered well over a million views. Niccolo recently made headlines for winning the 2016 Wipeout of the Year. Those who were on-site at the actual wipeout predicted he might not live to ride another wave.

"Adding LIFTOFF to our current programming roster is a perfect fit for the Outside Television brand. The multi-sport aspect of the show combined with extreme locations blend perfectly with the undeniable camaraderie between Jokke and Niccolo," said Outside Television SVP of Programming and Production, Rob Faris.
