Here is the trailer for Street Dreams.
Derrick Cabrera, like all skateboarders, dreams of being sponsored one day. He has all the talent in the world to make it happen but some major roadblocks to overcome before he can make the dream a reality. He is receiving pressure from all sides, his parents are stressing him because he is failing in school, his girlfriend thinks he is a loser, his best friend has become his rival because he is better than him. Things come to a head after Derrick gets arrested and a fight ensues with his father resulting in him running away from home. He does the only thing he knows how to do and opts to follow his dream to the Tampa Am contest, one of the only ways an unknown skater can get noticed.

Lords of Dogtown (2005)
Monday, December 8th, 2008 | film | No Comments
I can’t believe I haven’t watched his movie until now. Lords of Dogtown is quite an interesting movie, and maybe even more so for a skateboarder. The movies is based on the Z-boys who are often credited with popularizing skateboarding and the skateboarding culture. The Z-Boys perfect their style in the empty swimming pools of unsuspecting suburban homeowners, and turned skateboarding into a more “vertical” sport than it was at that time. They became pioneers in the sport and eventually legends.
Aside from the little history lesson, the movie itself was pretty interesting too, and well-acted by some actors you may have heard of — Emile Hirsch, Rebecca De Mornay, Michael Angarano, Johnny Knoxville, and Heath Ledger.
If you haven’t seen Lords of Dogtown and you are a skateboarder, or if you’re just interested in a little skateboarding history, I urge you to pick up a copy of Lords of Dogtown and watch it.
