Rollerskates Meet Surfboard


Stacy Peralta'a Dogtown and the Z-boys pays homage to the outsiders of Dogtown (the low rent side of Santa Monica CA in the early 70's) who needed something to past the time when the surf subsided after 10AM. They put skate wheels on planks of wood and skateboarding was born or more accurately perfected with STYLE. If you are looking for the definitive film about the "origin" of the modern skateboarding phenomenon, look no farther.
