Better than what we had in the 80's

Rating: 7/10 (31 January 2007)

I really liked this movie.I would have liked to see more skating, but I guess that what the documentary is for. I skated back in the 80's and all we had was Gleaming the Cube, which as every skater knows, was Hollywood crap. We considered ourselves lucky when one of us came across a VHS tape, in poor visual quality, of skateboarding tricks and rides. So now with the doc's, games, dvds, and now this movie I think mainstream America is realizing that there may be more to skateboarding than just outsiders,four wheels and a board. But with a little skater left in this married father of two, I say to mainstreamers, "didn't need you then and don't need you now."
