Surfaces || A Vermont Skateboarding Adventure

Filmmaker Ian Durkin has put together a short film featuring a Vermont skate crew who go by the name of The Worble. With some help from outdoor brand Poler, the team took skateboarding out of its normal urban context and cruised around the leafy Green Mountain State to try and find (and build) as many skate-able obstacles as possible. The inspiration for the trip and video comes from a quote which reads: "We live amidst surfaces, and the true art of life is to skate well on them." Check it out below!
