Guy Gadbois Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Hi, this is kind of a shot in the dark, but I vaguely recall in either 1999 or 2000 on TCM, during programming of beach + summer movies (The Endless Summer, etc), they played a series of great short videos on early skateboarding culture and teams and champions of the late 1950s/ 1960s in between the films. Have had no luck, but would love to find them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metamorpheus Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 While it is a discrete documentary, and not a series of shorts, Dogtown and Z-Boys (2001) may be right up your alley. Fascinating! Maybe this will tide you over until someone can recall the titles of the short features. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shutoo Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 I don't know if this is the same material, but there's an early short film called Skaterdater from 65 about skateboarding in the 60's...actually was nominated for an Oscar (short)...it's on Youtube: I didn't mean to paste the whole thing here, just the link...oops 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metamorpheus Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 That clip is certainly a skate team with the jackets matching. Such simpler times! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
