Dog Town & Z-Boys VHS - Description
Before there were X-Games there were Z-Boys. Narrated by Sean Penn and directed by skateboarding legend Stacy Peralta, this is the award-winning documentary that took Sundance by storm. Telling the story of a gang of kids who revolutionized skateboarding with their aggressive style, awe-inspiring moves and street smarts, and, in the process, transformed youth culture forever. Featuring exclusive interviews, historic old-skool skating footage and a blistering rock soundtrack, DOGTOWN AND Z-BOYS captures the stupendous rise of the Zephyr skateboarding team from Venice’s Dogtown, a tough 'locals only' beach with a legacy of outlaw surfing. Armed with a guerilla code, the notorious Z-Boys sharpened their skills in the concrete jungle of '70s L.A. and then took it to the next level. Getting vertical in abandoned swimming pools, they ignited an underground phenomenon that shapd the attitude and culture of modern-day extreme sports. Rare appearances by skateboarding icons Tony Hawk, Tony Alva and Jay Adams feature. A thrilling all-access tour of the birth of a pop culture phenomenon.
