ROLLIN' THROUGH THE DECADES

Rollin’ Through the Decades will take you on a sensational journey from the second emergence of skateboarding culture in London around 20 years ago, to the global phenomenon it is today. Looking deep into the short, yet rich history of skateboarding in London, Rollin’ Through The Decades shows how America’s influence affected the generations, through the growth of a positive British skateboarding community, to the multi million pound franchise it is today. With some of the finest tunes from the 80's and 90's, and music especially composed for the film by the legendary Dobie and crew, rollin’ interviews over 100 inspirational and legendary skateboarders, photographers and filmmakers. Showcasing historic, rare and unseen skateboarding footage, Rollin’ Through The Decades promises to be a landmark in British skateboarding filmmaking. Currently in production, but aiming for an October 2003 release...

Film Update

As for the editing, it's coming along fine and taking shape day by day. Lots of cutting and sorting being done. Beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

I'm still looking for footage and stills of 70's skateparks. Maddog Bowl, Sk8 Circus and Rolling Thunder. Please get in touch info@rollinthroughthedecades.com if you can help.

Expect more photos and video clips up soon on the site. Time will tell so please bear with me as for the screening dates which will be uploaded to the news page as soon as they are available in April/May. Please come visit us soon for more updates, it's a work in progress mode full speed ahead!!!

Keep skateboarding real! Go skate!

Havent watched the extras yet but the main feature is really really good , i just got a dvd and it was well werth the money !

[matt_galpin]

Saw it the other day and thought it was really good and had a nice bit in the extras about southsea 

[Richard]

   I finally bought a copy and honestly think it would explain why we skate
  to people who have never "got it" , that aside it was excellent and i finally
  know what the south bank looks like 
   
   I even bought a pair of vans so I can go skate badly and fall off in style
