Stoked about a Powell-Peralta Documentary. Imagine walking into a cafe and seeing all these guys sitting together? Also Mike V. is back riding for Powell-Peralta. I must say that is way better than Element. 

Stacy, Rodney, CAB, Tony, Mike, Lance and Tommy will be working on a Bones Brigade Documentary starting in February 2011.

On Monday, November 29th at Los Angeles International Airport, seven individuals that have had an extreme influence on skateboarding sat down to discuss work on a documentary of their experience. They met at the Encounter restaurant in the middle of the airport to begin work on this monumental film.

Stacy wrote, “Those skaters known as the Bones Brigade are now old enough to take a look back.  At a time in the 80’s when many people were mourning the second death of skateboarding, the Bones Brigade through passion, drive, creativity and a surprising sense of teamwork redefined the sport for their time and the future”. 

Documentary filmmaker, Stacy Peralta in a new film with Tony Hawk, Lance Mountain, Steve Caballero, Mike McGill, Rodney Mullen, Tommy Guerrero and others will investigate the history, the team and the men to determine what is the legacy of the Bones Brigade. “Five years ago the guys got together and told me they wanted to do this. They believed they had a significant story others would want to know about.  So now we’re going to see.”

Simultaneously, a Powell-Peralta coffee table book is in the works. It will include the Bones Brigade, but also other things you knew and didn’t know about Powell-Peralta.

Says Mike V, “Powell Peralta and the Bones Brigade has always been my ideal.
Since I left the team in 1989, I’ve been chasing after that ideal, or at
least trying to make good on it. With Stacy Peralta back with George Powell,
I could not refuse the opportunity to drop everything I was doing and join
forces with two people I have great respect and admiration for, and for a
cause I truly believe in. I feel I can finally now make peace with my
skateboard career. And that as far as the business of skateboarding is
concerned, that I now have a purpose to continue to be involved for a long
time to come.”
