UK Distribution for Deathbowl to Downtown DVD

We are very excited to announce that Rock Solid will now be the distributing – Deathbowl to Downtown DVD which is a documentary on The Evolution of Skateboarding in New York City.

Along with San Francisco and Barcelona, New York is arguably the modern street skating city, both in reality and image. Because of the unique background, experience and perspective of the film’s creators and the decision to “cast” the city of New York as one of the main characters, Deathbowl to Downtown is unprecedented, seminal film about the evolution of skateboarding. This is an amazing documentary that really captures what skateboarding is about. On one level Deathbowl to Downtown is about street skating, but it’s also an overview of skateboarding’s shift from the parks and pools of the 1970’s, to ramp skating in the 80’s, to the street ascendancy of the 1990’s and beyond. Wes thinks the DVD is worth the money just for the Gonz footage from the mid 80’s, which is just mind blowing! There is footage of the Gonz doing frontside 50/50 on a handrail for the first time ever!
