Product details
-
Never-before-published photographs by photographer Hugh Holland, masterfully captured a nostalgic 1970s burgeoning culture of skateboarding against a sometimes harsh but always sunny Southern California landscape.
- This hardback picture book showcases black-and-white photographs documenting young skateboarders sidewalk surfing off Mulholland Drive in concrete drainage ditches and empty swimming pools in a drought-ridden Southern California.
- From suburban backyard haunts to the asphalt streets that connected them, this was the place that inspired the legendary Dogtown and Z-Boys skateboarders.
- With their requisite bleached-blond hair, tanned bodies, tube socks and Vans, these young outsiders evoke the sometimes reckless but always exhilarating origins of skateboarding lifestyle and culture.
- 23 x 31 cm, Hardcover, 160 pages.
