DRAIN-A DOGBOWL SHORT


DRAIN - A DOGBOWL SHORT directed by JAKE JANISSE from DRAIN - A DOGBOWL SHORT on Vimeo.

Directed By Jake Janisse
The Dog Bowl, originally known only to the most hardcore DogTown crew, was located in Northern Santa Monica – The Dogtown crew had their own pool that they could skate in peace. “Dino’s Dog Bowl” was shortened to just “The Dog Bowl.” A teenager with terminal cancer asked his father to drain the family pool on their huge estate overlooking The Brentwood Country Club Golf Course. Some of the most famous photographs in skateboarding were shot at the Dog Bowl. Tony Alva is credited with doing the first front side aerials at the pool in the fall of 1977. It was named “The Dog Bowl” because there were dogs always hanging out at the pool. On any given day over the summer of 1977 most of the entire DogTown crew were at the pool. Some of the best skating sessions EVER took place there.

Dogtown & The Z-Boys









*all pictures from various sources

We have to thanks the Dogtown & Z-Boys crew for bringing skateboarding to where it is today.  From the slums of dogtown Venice, this crew no one wanted to mess with.  They took skateboarding from where it was then, riding a skateboard like a surfboard, to taking it to the extreme with high radical turns like the ones they saw surfer Larry Bertleman was performing to going into the empty pools and pool skating and then getting up out of the pool into the air.  All with Style and that is what's missing now adays, we need some more style in surfing/skating everything.   Inside and outside of what we do.  It doesn't matter if you rip or not, if you look good doing it that all that matters.
