The Screen Guide

From sidewalk surfing in the swinging '60s to the urban anarchy of today, the underground evolution of Australian skating over the past half century has been one of the most fascinating progressions in living history. Emerging from the inventive handiwork of coastal dwellers on Sydney's northern beaches, the humble Australian skateboard found its first commercial embodiment under the namesake of 1964 world surfing champion, Midget Farrelly. Ever since, the monster that is Australian skateboarding has waged a wild and unpredictable war in search of its own unique identity.
