    I recently watched the documentary Dogtown and the Z Boys and the movie Lords of Dogtown.

    Fascinating look at the surfer skateboard revolution of the 70's when the urethane wheel came out.

    Stacey Petralta did the Doc and was one of the Z Boys and had a young Tony Hawk at one of his camps. Hawk had a cameo in the movie as an astronaut they met who tried the skateboard and fell on his ass.

    Not sure what this has to do with anything other than seeing a slum on the Cali coast is kind of cool and they dealt with crowded surf by curb stomping outsiders.

    I got a 60's skateboard with metal wheels and like the rest of America we were done with that in a matter of months. The 70's launched the X Games generation

    Also some cool stuff on a drought at the time that emptied swimming pools leading to "air" as the Z Boys skated empty pools.

    Cool story I know
