Best Movie About Skateboarding

**LaneMeyer** · 12-11-2008 07:19 PM

I saw Favorite Song about Skateboarding thread, so I figured I'd throw this one out there. Add at will.

My Pick-

Honorable Mention: ... Oldschool

Stoked wasnt even about skating, really.. its about how Gator ruined its good name for bein a fukmook. what a dumbass...

anyway.. theres too many bad ones from the 80s that rock, oh so much.

Stoked was pretty good. But it's all about "Thrashin'" ya'll.

**revzack** · 12-11-2008 09:48 PM

2nd for thrashin.

**mc99david** · 12-11-2008 09:52 PM

as much as its probably lame to say, i have go to say Lords of Dogtown. second is definitly search for animal chin# third, gleaming the cube, and forth is thrashin. dagger rule - is it still to early to say that???

**Rich Nelson** · 12-11-2008 09:59 PM

i havn;t seen many but the dogtown and the z-boys documentary was pretty awesome

**samhell** · 12-11-2008 10:08 PM

Thrashin is a great one.. Very entertaining stuff.
Animal Chin
Future Primitive
I really dig the old school stuff.
A couple of my favorites:
Downhill Motion

Spinnin Wheels

gotta say that first its the z-boys documentary that is my favorite then the movie because they are the only skate related movies i have seen and watching it just makes me want to go skate. Also the movie has some good music.

(yea, it needs updating...)

longboard videos guide

lord of dogtown was a dissappointment for me,
made for kids....

for a documentary, i really like bbc's 'skateboard king'

YouTube - FREEWHEELIN '77 Stacey Peralta Tom Sims

YouTube - Tony Alva Dishdogz pool scene

haha gleaming the cube was pretty good

**Momona Boe** · 12-12-2008 08:07 AM

no love for "Skateboard"?

I like the Duane Peters movie

Of course Zboys reigns supreme!

Just saw "The Man Who Souled the World" last night, about Steve Rocco and World Industries...

That was some interesting ####...

**AmishNinja** · 12-12-2008 09:08 AM

"Yea Right"
that was pretty badass

**TexasBomber** · 12-12-2008 09:19 AM

"Lords" (Stacy's documentary) for sure and most of the Bones Brigade stuff.

The Leif Garrett "Skateboard" movie which featured Tony Alva
was the worst. Pure homo faggotry.

**mc99david** · 12-12-2008 09:27 AM

ok.. totaly stupid movie, but totaly entertaining - Grind

**BergaLiden** · 12-12-2008 10:44 AM

Um, do you mean movies like Thrashin' etc or real skateflicks? Because the Powell & Peralta videos were all real skateflicks, like Fully Flared or Ride the Sky.

I don't think we need to get into the nitty gritty of definition.

Damn, I forgot about Thrashin, I need to see that again.

**pavedwave** · 12-12-2008 08:17 PM

Ahh I was about to say this...this movie is amazing! I just bought it the other day, and was thinking if anyone else saw it, truly an interesting film.
