The Motivation is a 2013 documentary film that premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival. In the film, eight of the world's best pro-skateboarders prepare for the upcoming Street League Skateboarding Championship in New York City.

The film received a limited theatrical release in the United States on June 30, 2013 and a VOD release on August 6, 2013.
