JACK BE NIMBLE
JUST FOUND OUT A LITTLE ABOUT THIS DOCUMENTARY MOVIE ‘JACK BE NIMBLE’
In the summer of 1995, aggressive inline skating was featured as one of the premier events in ESPN’s newly created X-Games. By 2004 it had been completely eliminated from the event leaving the sport practically unseen by mainstream culture. Jack Be Nimble follows the recently established Roll Series, an international competition circuit consisting of more than 50 inline street skating events across North America. Despite a lack of sponsorship to help fund their journey, a small group of young men embark 20,000 miles across the continent with little more than passion to help fuel their way. As they push forward however, they discover that the activity once representing rebellion, innocence and individuality has brought them to a crossroads between growing up and following their dreams.

Picked up a documentary at blockbuster (one of the exclusive indie films they use to promote) call “Its all Good”. It chronicles the efforts of the late NY based FR wheel company and its rivalry with Californias Senate Team. It was filmed in like ‘97 so in the film Zamora is still an Am along with Latimer and handfull of other well known oldies. Ryan Jacklone even has an integral part in the documentary. Anyhow, its good stuff and I think it helps to get a feel for why things ended up the way they are with all of the industry canibalism and lack of support from both mainstream and the counter cultures.
