LORDS OF DOGTOWN (2005)

Cast

Plot

In the early seventies Venice beach California was a hairy place to go surfing, ruled by the Z-Boys, a group of hedonistic wave riders who weren't prepared to share the beach with anyone. The film follows the Z-boys pioneering transition from surfing to skateboarding, and what a cheesy sorry mess they make of things. The original documentary of a similar name is a considerably more gripping and inspiring way to pass the time, though it lacks the glossy, cliché ridden teen drama aspect of this.
