In the recent review of 70-71.com’s 2$ Pistol DVD I predicted that independently produced skate videos are going to be the wave of the future. Testing my theory are two more releases from Innovation Skateboards, Back in the Day Texas Style, and Skatefest Ingeside. Again, these are home produced and manufactured, meaning it’s a guy […]

OK, so now we’re reviewing 2 year old DVD’s? WTF? Somebody send us some DVDs! Right from the start of this I knew I was in trouble. It starts in black and white, with the Darkstar crew all trying to look menacing while smoke billows around them. Instead they just look like some extras from […]

Besides an awkward title, what you get with the new Conspiracy video Die… Skate or Die is just over a half an hour of no-frills skateboarding action from across the country. It’s fast paced, but thankfully does not suffer from nausea inducing short attention span hyper quick editing. Imagine if you spent a year or […]

Downhill Motion Greg Weaver and Spyder Wills There was a time when skateboards had steel or clay wheels. Both were hard and slippery. Then the urethane wheel was developed and first marketed to skateboarders by a guy named Frank Nasworthy as Cadillac Wheels. The new wheels provided a smooth ride with enough traction to allow […]

Ok, if by some chance you’re reading this online and you aren’t aware of Concrete Disciples I’ll give you the low down.

From Canada via Skull Skates, the new DVD Resist Control is not your typical skate video by any means. The company that once made asymmetrical regular and goofy-foot boards has no problem bucking the system and following their own path. Resist Control is a loose documentary of skateboarding from the 60’s to present day. And […]

Pool skating, what could be better, wait I know, nothing. Pools rule. There’s just a rad feeling that you get when skating something that wasn’t built to be skated. Well this video is all pool skating and it will get you stoked to grab your stick and go jump a fence. This isn’t another Chlorine-style […]

Lots of pool skating from our hessian friends at Concussion. If metal and agro skating are your thing then you can pick this up for $25 postage paid, including stickers. There’s some suspiciously punk sounding tracks in there as well. Pool skating figures heavily, but without the heavy canonizing that has been the trend in […]
