The Man Who Souled The World Skateboarding Video

The film is most easily coined as 'the follow-up to Dogtown & Z-Boys' but I feel that it has far more to offer in terms of narrative interest, challenging content and universal themes.

THE MAN WHO SOULED THE WORLD tells the story of Steve Rocco, the irreverent genius who transformed the skateboard industry from corporate to skater owned with a do-it-yourself punk attitude. Steve's antics and entrepreneurial impact on the skateboard business are huge and have ultimately had a significant impact on broader mainstream culture.

10 Reasons why you should care about Steve Rocco?

1. He is, hands down, the most hated & most loved individual in skateboarding.

2. He revolutionized the sport, the culture, or whatever you want to call it.

3. He ushered in street skating.

4. He discovered Jason Lee & Daewon Song.

5. He gave Spike Jonze & Jeff Tremaine their first directing gigs.

6. He sold a magazine to Larry Flynt.

7. He made millions of dollars bucking the system.

8. He toppled corporate giants to give skateboarders the freedom to topple him.

9. He sowed the seeds for Jackass.

10. He is a living, breathing enigma.

Steve Rocco, the controversial godfather of street, led a cultural revolution during the early 1990s toppling the corporate giants who controlled the skateboard industry and ushered in the most degenerate, savage, innovative & entertaining era in the history of skateboarding. For better or worse his legacy shaped skateboarding as we know it today like no other.

Yo! I quit skating back in 1992 and have recently taken it back up. I just want to say that after watching this video I am glad I quit back then because in 1992 the stew of creativity had really started boiling and according to this video it took a bad curve. I actually would have expected skating to have progressed further then it has since I quit from seeing the positive side of it and this negative turn looks to me to have slowed it down.
