to straighten all this out.. mike mcgill did all christian slaters skating, except the freestyle scenes with all the pogoing and whatnot, that was rodney mullen.
i quit skateboarding after this same speed sent me into a speed wobble!!! The people who saw me wipe out thought i was dead!!! Lots of serious road rash!!!! lol
Some people think it's Jozef Atilla who did his stunts in this scene, but it was really Slater who did ALL of the skateboard stunts in the movie. He RIPS!
A kid on a skateboard outruns 3 guys on motorcycles. Even downhill with the greatest skateboarder in the world on the best built skateboard with no cars in site until the end.......ummmm yeah ok LMAO
I used to live in that exact area. It's in Culver City. The hill he bombs is called Ranch its so fucking steep. Its funny watching this and knowing exactly where he is. He went around the same corner like 3 times to make the scene longer though.. haha
I know. I watched this movie a thousand times when I was 13. I think its funny how motorcycles can basically beat any car off the line, but they can't catch slater. Goodtimes...
i saw this movie when it came out at the theater in the late 1980s it was so cool me and my friends on the day it cameout saw it the whole theater was full of skaters
The skater's name is Richard Dunlap. He was well-paid for sliding blindly between motorcycles. The money paid for a trip to New Zealand with his mates.
Shit that's where I live!!!! They pass my house!!! 0:57 the white one.
