Another gem from the Tennskate crew, Ghost Town is different than your average skate video, using super 8mm film, no dialogue (a nod to silent films) and showcasing the lesser seen skaters from Tennessee. Skating the spots and streets that are often overlooked or less traveled, the video has an almost eerie hypnotic feel. Just using text and quotes to punctuate and introduce sections, the skaters move through this “Ghost town” environment in silence, with few pedestrians or cars, striking when the time is right. Enjoy the mellow video, originally available just through DVD, now online in its entirety for the first time ever.
