Description:
Transworld Skateboarding takes skateboarding videos to a higher level with its latest feature, Sight Unseen. This 40-minute video makes boarding look less like a hobby or sport, and more like a graceful art. Great music, including catchy raps or a smooth beat, combined with precise and inventive editing gives Sight Unseen a sophistication lacking in most other boarding videos. But even with the extra polish, Transworld keeps it simple by focusing on just five main skaters, John Cardiel, Henry Sanchez, Tosh Townend, Dustin Dollin, and Heath Kirchart, who are at their best (and occasionally their worst). High points include an 18-stair jump by Dollin, tons of air time from Cardiel, bonus footage of Bob Burnquist doing the loop switch on his first try, and plenty of wipeouts. And don't miss the credits section at the end. It features even more offbeat and creative footage. --Neal Marks
