we all have our preconceptions, more or less ill advised, on about every other subject… let's mention brazilian skateboarding, and you most likely will have more than one. this new production by the one and only “cotinz” should shake about every single one of them, thanks to a total immersion into the local underground, doubled with a certain lack of respect for what “the rules” about skate video making are supposed to be… take a seat, this is a diamond even if in the rough that we have as a live exclusive for you!

david thanks for publishing your hard work (bb4) on ride. we will continue to support all filmmakers big and small.
this back to nature, alternative lifestyle and also a little skateboarding, short docu-film, is too good not to be shared. this really changed my perspectives on the idea of “alternative living space”. to sum this short, utopians living lifestyle and communing. that's just my personal humble opinion and take on what i've observed. please check this out and judge it for yourselves. also, share this video on the world wide web! thanks!
in the spring of 2014, a small group of close friends broke ground on a building project in skamania county, washington in the columbia river gorge. their primary endeavor was a multi-platform tree house but also included a skate bowl and a wood fired soaking tub as well. the crew came from all over the country and from a variety of backgrounds. some were professional carpenters, others learned on the job, gaining experience along the way. the cinder cone is foster huntington’s short film that documents this year-long process of building his dream home with this community of tight knit friends.
a farm league original.
directed by foster huntington.

the crew packed up the rv in la and headed out for the southwest, blazing through nevada, arizona and new mexico before hitting our death match event in austin. they even brought a special guest, and he is actually pretty damn special!
