Skateboarding's Unknown Empire is an inside look at how it feels to be a skateboarder. It takes you behind the scenes with some of America's best unknown skaters as they conquer cracked pavement, angry cops, and hostile pedestrians. If you've wondered what skateboarding is all about, this film will show you!

Skateboarder Erich Lehman takes you on a ride through the mean streets of America, while he explains the thrill and intrigue of skating. You'll visit a demo where today's top pros show you their best tricks. Landing tricks and slamming on ramps, in parking lots, down flights of stairs, in underground garages, even on grass-covered hills, Erich and his friends show you the real Unknown Empire of Skateboarding! And by the way, you also get to experience what's it like to be hassled for skating!

If you've ever asked - or been asked - "why do they do that to themselves?" - "why don't they grow up?" - or "why don't they play a real sport like football?" - this tape will show you the answer!
