FRUIT OF THE VINE is a super 8mm film that documents the incredible and often dangerous lengths that skateboarders go to in order to ride deserted, empty swimming pools. It is not a historical documentary, but a collection of stories shot in 1999 while Coan and Rick traveled from southern California to Seattle and around the east coast in search of pools to ride. FRUIT OF THE VINE profiles the people who search for, find, break into, and ultimately glean some use out of these pieces of the American suburban wasteland. With skate luminaries like Tony Alva, Lance Mountain, Steve Baily, Salba, Shaggy, Chris Senn, Pete the Ox, Tony Farmer, Tom Groholski, Mark Hubbard, Pat Quirk and many more. Soundtrack features Bad Religion, The Clay Wheels, Steel Wool, The Loudmouths and more. "Fruit of the Vine is a seminal work of scraped knees, bruised elbows and big air... they find beautiful settings for ragged glory." - Rolling Stone "Nichols and Charnoski have created a definitive documentation of one of skateboarding's least-seen scenes... it certainly conveys a sense of the subculture's subculture." - Transworld Skateboarding ----- Buy it now from the Plexi Shop and save 20% UK Release date: December, 2004 Catalog No. PLX-002 Price: £17.99 Specs: 65 minutes, color/b&w, super 8mm, 1.33:1 (original ratio) Special Features: Over 20 minutes of extra footage and bonus interviews with Tony Alva, Salba and Pat Quirk.
