Ollie The Gap

The first UK skate video Ollie The Gap is being remastered ready to be released on DVD in August. Originally filmed back in 87 and 88 the video features loads of skating from the tours and demos of the time, in particular the Powell tour with Cab and a young Mike Vallely and the Holeshot visit with Jason Jessee, Hosoi, etc. As well as that though is a wealth of vintage footage of some of the UKs early innovators such as Sean Goff, Wurzel, Lucian Hendrix, Crispin, Rob Dukes, Ged Wells, etc, etc – of particular interest is the first modern street skating footage filmed around London and the south coast, a rare glimpse in to the skaters and scenes that were the cradle of modern UK street skating. This will be a must have fr anyone interested in UK skate history.
