This movie made me start skateboarding back in 2007. My first board was from target and it had a xgames logo. Jeje now I'm on independent trucks with spitfire wheels and mystery board. And With element bearings.
@player13091980 well to me its his hair sorta represented his friendship and bond with the z boys and when everyone sold out and there was no more bond he shaved it off....
even though he is only cutting his hair, this scene is not only inspirational but also sad. you really have to be a skateboarder and have watched this movie to understand how fucking amazing this scene and the movie itself is.
@destroycreate This scene's sad because Skip told him "your mom's gotta eat" after he apologized for leaving his skate team. He then realized that skating isn't paying the rent for his mom, so he turns to dealing drugs and gang bangin to make money. He shaves his head so he can fit in better with the dogtown thugs. The scene shows him disassociating himself with the childlike skateboarder he was and facing the harsh realities of life, and what he has to do to provide for his mom.
thats what im doing the night of my graduation only its gonna be half my head...fuck with people make them think something out of societies norms for once. why have the same kind of stuff day in and day out...why not shake people up tell them that you can do what ever you want no just what the man says Jim Morrision said "if you can get a room full of drunk and stoned people to stand up and think...your doing something"
@killuminnati I agree with you. This scene and the events that lead up to this scene breaks my heart. I think there is a part on human nature, that when they feel extremely hurt or unloved, they seek to feel something else so badly, even if that something else is self destruction. They turn the anger brought on by the pain, against themselves.

I cry wenever i see this part.cause this song nd this movie inspired me so much but now that ive quit skating for the last 4 years i feel like somethings gone from my life
Awesome actor. Great scene. Fantastic movie. Enough said... now, there's this one scene in the film "Empire Records" (1995) in which Robin Tunney (as "Deb") shaves her head out at her workplace, a record store. Two of my favorite head-shaving scenes ever!! Well, without forgetting Bob Geldof (as 'Pink') in Pink Floyd's "The Wall" (1980)... we need more actors who commit to their craft in storytelling and have enough balls to do things like that as these three, we really do.
@Chameleam Been there done that, not as cool as it looks :P actually pretty fucking boring once you do the first strip and realize you still have to stand there and shave your head for another 20 minutes
@lebanesebeast15 yeah i know. that's why it is so sad. and i can really live tru Jays character. i dont know if he was like that in real life too but he's totally me in this movie :| same personality, everything besides looks
love you emile hirsch

@killuminnati I agree with you. This scene and the events that lead up to this scene breaks my heart.

They turn the anger brought on by the pain, against themselves.
