June 12th, Street Dreams finally hits major theaters nationwide. I have been privy to some of the developments of this movie for some time now. My boy Nino, who wrote the film, and I usually get coffee a couple times a week at LA Cafe in Downtown. He has been real clear about this feature film, and although it’s being pushed through the Hollywood pipeline, it truly is an authentic film about skateboarding made by skateboarders.
Rob Dyrdek, who produced and stars in the movie, hosted a screening at his Fantasy Factory in downtown a while back, I went to check it out with Paul Sun and the Social Trust posse and the place is amazing. Boasting an indoor skate park with some of the best ledges and hand rails I have ever seen, a foam pit for practice, a basketball court, fussball table, and a few of his cars. Gotta love open bars and I cant forget to mention that dude even hired a barber shop to come in and give free haircuts. MTV was on hand to film for Rob’s Fantasy Factory tv show, and I managed to get a few shots off…but somehow facebook isnt letting me access them.

The thing to remember is that the integrity of skateboarding had to be preserved in this project. With all the players involved in Street Dreams, I think that goal was met, but see for yourself, starting June 12th.
