Skateboarding - it's not for everyone. It's noisy and painful and something many of us grow out of when we get into the serious business of finding a career, attending art openings and DJ-ing. Thanks to the MTV treatment, skating is no longer an underground activity, and although there are hundreds of public skate parks, they're all swarming with little kids on razor scooters. However, this new release from locally based clothing label Blank is proof that street skating is not only alive, it is looking more creative than ever..
Skillfully collated from digital and 16mm footage gathered over the past few years, coupled with a soundtrack from local artists such as Eddy Current and Laura, CRASHING TO EARTH is an enjoyable watch for anyone who has gazed longingly at a marble bench. It's also encouraging that some of the riders seem to be of at least legal drinking age. You might even bump into one or two of them at an art opening.
