Dogtown Skateboards: The Birthplace of Skater Rebellion
Dogtown skateboards have been the epitome of raw skate culture since the 1970s. Originating from the gritty streets of Venice Beach, California, Dogtown has become synonymous with the rebellious spirit of skateboarding. The brand's origins go back to the legendary Zephyr Skate Team (the Z-Boys) with their aggressive, surf-inspired style. These pioneers turned empty swimming pools into their playgrounds, and Dogtown boards became their weapon of choice. With each carve and grind, Dogtown and the Z-Boys cemented their place in history, creating a legacy that continues to influence this culture today.
Lords of Dogtown: The Roots of Modern Skate Culture
The movie Lords of Dogtown, released in 2005, dramatises the origins of the modern skate culture scene in the 1970s, focusing on the Zephyr Skate Team, which included skaters like Tony Alva, Jay Adams, and Stacy Peralta. The movie highlights how these skaters revolutionised the sport with their innovative, surf-inspired style and how Dogtown's gritty environment influenced skateboarding culture and aesthetics. The Dogtown brand, known for its iconic skateboards, was born out of this era and played a significant role in the story depicted in the film.
