Stacy Peralta, director/producer of Dogtown and Z-Boys has a new film; "Bones Brigade." A biography about the birth of modern skateboarding and the personalities that shaped it as members of the Bones Brigade team.
Walk down any street in any town, and you are destined to see someone riding a skateboard. Well, it wasn't always like that. In the early '80s, skateboarding was fading away until Stacy Peralta brought a profoundly talented group of outsiders together and dubbed them the Bones Brigade. This documentary chronicles their epic rise, using awesome archival footage and moving first-person accounts from Brigade members Steve Caballero, Tommy Guerrero, Tony Hawk, Mike McGill, Lance Mountain, and Rodney Mullen, among others. Through passion, drive, creativity, and a surprising sense of teamwork, they revitalized the sport and influenced generations.
Excited to see it, like a time capsule to reflect back. Being from the East Coast and not seeing videos then, it was all about the magazines to see what was up. The Bones Brigade was epic and marketed well..Hosoi and Gator and Vison were stylish, Alva team was punk rock, Santa Cruz team was a nice diverse blend of street, pool, and vert. All in all, to me and many, the best and purest time besides the 70's and Dogtown days. Love seeing these documentaries and can't wait to see this one.

Sad what happened to Hosoi in prison with the religious indoctrination and all.

Rivalries in skating is bullshit and stupid.
Everyone skates differently and lets just not have any division. I like both Tony Hawk and Christian Hosoi!
