I saw it a couple of times before it came out and really liked it - i'm not even into skateboarding. But you REALLY REALLY have to see 'Dogtown and Z-boys'. One of the best documentaries iv seen. But then i really like the whole dogtown story. Every know and then i try and get hold of 'Skateboarder Magazine' number 1, the first time the Z-boys were mentioned in the 'Aspects of the Downhill Slide' article.

They didn't quite invent the skateboard. But what they did do is revive skateboarding and turned it into what we know it today. I dont even skateboard but whenever i watch/read about it, it makes me want to try skateboarding in swimming pools.

Seconded, 'Dogtown and Z-Boys' is a must see, caught it in the belmont and it's such a cool, almost fairytale, version of how skateboarding evolved when surfers had no waves...
