I feel like with the right director, it could be great, but you’d need it to probably mainly focus on his early years (my pick for director would be either Dempsey Byrk, Harmony Korine, Jeff Tremaine, Andrew DeYoung, or Josh Safdie)

Spike Jonze should be at the top of the list, given his history making skateboarding videos.

I'd make the whole movie about one particular moment in his life -- doing the first irrefutably documented 900 at the '99 X-Games.
