Bones Brigade Presents 'The Search for Animal Chin'

Search For Animal ChinLet's face facts.  The soul of skateboarding has really been lost these days.  It's either about what tricks you do, what clothes you wear, or how hard you can party. And even though skateboarding was born out of a punk rock, surfers-in-exile attitude there were really only three reasons to bother with it: to hang out with friends, hunt down new spots, and have fun.

The Search for Animal Chin defines what skating and skate videos should always be.  There are no parts; nobody doing trick after trick after trick.  There isn't any excessive partying,  There is nothing serious about the movie at all.  Just a bunch of skate kids hanging out and traveling the world to skate while trying to find a legendary skater by the name of Animal Chin.

This is the original right here. A Powell-Peralta production featuring the dream team of the late 80s; Tony Hawk, Steve Caballero, Mike McGill, Tommy Guerrero, Lance Mountain, and even an appearance from the father of flatland, Rodney Mullen.

Sit back and enjoy, but be warned. This movie will get you stoked to go out and skate. And not skate in the sense of sticking that new trick, but skating for skating's sake... just getting out of the house and rolling around, doing whatever stupid shit comes to mind.

  1. I vaguely remember some of the skate vids from the late 80s when I was a kid (some older guys on my block had a few of them, and the matching $130 Caballero boards). None of us could actually skateboard.
