"A thoroughly infectious comedy that’s the first feature film to depict the youthful skateboarding craze." - Kevin Thomas, LA Times, 1978
“If you like music, skateboarding, and movies you’ll love Skateboard. Hollywood’s first full-length feature film centered around skateboarding is a fun filled comedy.” - Peter Du Pre, Wild World of Skateboarding Magazine, 1978
