Here is a nice mini-documentary filmed by the American director and former professional skateboarder Stacy Peralta and featuring George Powell, skateboard manufacturer since 1957 and incidentally co-founder of Powell Peralta.
Powell Peralta is a fairly well-known skateboard manufacturing company that was founded as a collaboration between the two men in 2.
In this documentary of only 4 minutes, you will discover all the stages of making a skateboard from the wooden board... to the wheels!
For Stacy Peralta,
Very few people, including skateboarders, really know what it takes to make something as simple as a modern skateboard or even a simple urethane wheel. George Powell is one of the few skateboard companies in the world today that still makes his products in the United States under one roof, as he always has, and so that gave me the idea to make this short film about him and his company. Skate One and share it with you all.
In short, a rather interesting self-promotional documentary with very beautiful images for fans of board sports and curious people!
