Three years of skateboarding has been condensed into a 30 minute film - the first from Heroin Skateboards. With Mark Foster in charge, Live From Antarctica was filmed all over the world, in Prague, Barcelona, Paris, London, Madrid, Osaka and Burnley! This disc even has over an hour of bonus footage!
This vid is exceptionally well filmed and is awesome to watch. It's full of energy and doesn't limp along like so many other sk8 flicks these days. It's a refreshing change with a kick-ass Metal - Thrash - Punk soundtrack.
The cover art is the first thing that grabs you when you encounter this vid. It was done by James Jarvis who has also done art for Heroin sk8 decks.
The whole vid is intense and keeps it up past the ending credits with footy from new rider, Colin Fiske. Just when you think you can't take any more - after the 30 minute feature - get ready for an hour of bonus material. Get stoked, get out your wallet and get Live From Antarctica. You might also want to get a few beers.
