About this book
In the 1970s photographer Hugh Holland masterfully captured the burgeoning culture of skateboarding against a sometimes harsh but always sunny Southern California landscape. This never-before-published collection showcases his black-and-white photographs that document young skateboarders sidewalk surfing off Mulholland Drive in concrete drainage ditches and empty swimming pools in a drought-ridden Southern California. From suburban backyard haunts to the asphalt streets that connected them this was the place that inspired the legendary Dogtown and Z-Boys skateboarders. With their requisite bleached-blond hair tanned bodies tube socks and Vans these young outsiders evoke the sometimes reckless but always exhilarating origins of skateboarding lifestyle and culture.
