Completely amazing!! I remember seeing this at my local cinema back in the late 70's as the support film to Grease. Great days. Thank you :)

Wow, what memories it brings back, as a kid skating in the 70,s i went to see this film, had to watch grease also at the time, that last track stuck with me for life, chris montez lets dance, happy memories of kryptonic wheels, gull-wing trucks, and tony alva and dogtown boards, thanks for posting this up.

This is the wonder of the modern internet. Until I found this, the film had been simply a vague, distorted memory in the back of my mind. Now it's real again!

My late husband Dave Fuller with Rob Spensley did the acoustic soundtrack to this and it went out in distribution with Grease. Haven't seen or heard it in 3 decades!

Looks very much like Crystal Palace park at the start and a bit later on with some downhill slalom section. Just started skating there again on a longboard after 35 years of not skating!

@gixernal same here, watched Grease just to watch this film. I loved the Oxygene - Jean Michel Jarre bit with the slomo. Got my Dad to buy the album on the back of that track. haven't seen this movie since 1978, been searching for years and took a chance today on the back of a Grease convo and found this. Great post. Great memories.

10 foot tranies & Quarter pipe Queens. Brilliant...The Black bowl looks so rad, shame they forgot how to build vertical concrete (unless accompanied by 10 foot transitions) ... I guess you cant do your tricky stunts on vert can you??? Heh and what about the lines in the black bowl, does anyone do lines any more?

Hi Pete - such great footage, thank you for uploading. I am currently making a film about UK skateboarding scene and its roots, and would like to know a bit more about who might own the rights to this footage. Let's chat if you have a second!
