a new truck on there,
another stick.
(spirited piano music)
- [Camille] The further
you go up the coast
away from LA, the more
beautiful the countryside gets.
(adventurous music)
Feels so good to be on the road
Not a care anywhere too slow me down
- [Tom] I guess the main reason I ride
a longer board is 'cause I've always lived
with lots of mountains,
back in New England and
now in Santa Barbara.
And so I ride a longer board
so I can maintain
control at higher speeds.
Alive, alive
Alive, alive
There's no place that I'd rather be
It's all so clear when
I'm here, no city streets
Just the greens and
yellows of summertime
I've got my friends
here to keep me in line
It makes me feel free and alive
- [Camille] A friend of Tom's owned
a private ranch further up north.
It's a genuine California paradise,
long rolling hills right down to the sea.
They knew they'd have it all to themselves
without any cars, the perfect place
to get in some high speed runs.
(adventurous music)
- [Kenny] I guess I've
gone over 50 miles an hour.
It's sorta scary, but with my feet apart,
I got more control than a skateboard.
The only thing is if something goes wrong,
I can't jump off.
- [Tom] When you get going over 50,
feels nice and stable
and you can concentrate more on the wind
hitting your face and the scenery going by
front truck slaloming.
It's a peaceful
feeling being on the road
going till I get there
Always running where
I'm going till I get there
Always living today
It makes me feel free
- [Camille] They started off
towards San Francisco again,
but they only got a
few miles down the road
when they saw them, just
what they were looking for,
Tom, Kenny, and Stacy,
they were really stoked.
The waves were really pumping through.
They watched a few and decided to go out,
he had forgotten his wet suit.
The water was so cold, 45
degrees, and he couldn't go out.
Alive, alive
Alive, alive
Got the sun on my shoulders
I got the wind on my side
Feels like I could fly on forever
When I take you out on a ride
And down the road
it's a beautiful feeling
The day's still so new
Oh, watch me shine, I feel so fine
Just rolling with you
Got a job in the city
Well, it's so dull it's a crime
- [Stacy] Hey Kenny, let
me use your wet suit.
- [Camille] The sun was almost going down.
Just time for one more wave.
And then it came, the best wave
of the day and Stacy got it.
Day or night I feel all right
Just rolling with you
Everybody's so busy traveling
All that I haven't done
I just want to roll on forever
On the road in the sun
- [Camille] Tom and Stacy
didn't stay out very long.
Even with wet suits,
the water was freezing
and they took off skating
to get warmed up again.
I think we can ride on together
And nothing's gonna come in between
Looking down the road
it's a beautiful feeling
The day is still so new
Oh, watch me shine, I feel so fine
Just rolling with you
Rolling with you, just a rolling
Rolling with you, just a rolling
Rolling with you, just a rolling
Rolling with you, just a rolling
- [Camille] Early next morning, off again,
and by noon they got to San Francisco.
The first thing they did was skate down
to have a look at the
famous Golden Gate Bridge.
(playful instrumental music)
San Francisco's built on steep
hills surrounding the bay.
But off Lombard Street, the
grade was almost too much.
(eclectic jazz music)
People really seem fascinated
by the explorers from the south land.
They couldn't believe Tom and his jumps.
(crowd exclaims amazement)
It's a long way back up hill,
so they rode the cable cars.
And the drivers let them ride
for free with their skateboards.
(uptempo jazz music)
Exploring the city, they
found this old marble palace,
really beautiful.
smooth to skate on, like ice.
They roared down the corridors
It was weird though, like skating in
an old Greek tomb or something,
with statues everywhere.
- Oh, I don't know, it's frightening.
I used to be a good skier
and a good surfer, and good everything,
but now that I'm older, I'm a scared sh*t.
I don't know why I lost my courage.
- Put your foot on there and take off.
- All right, hold me.
- I'll hold you, okay.
- Okay, okay!
(crowd cheers)
Yeah, I love it!
- [Camille] The city,
really beautiful at night.
They rode the subways and
skated around into Chinatown.
(eclectic blues music)
While Stacy and the guys were
up exploring San Francisco,
I went to a contest in Laguna Beach.
This feeling's unreal
Got to feeling my skateboard and fly
Got a new set of wheels
And you know that riding gets me high
Baby, cruising's so
hot here in the summer
It's a skateboarder's dream coming true
I'm loving the feeling freewheelin'
Now baby, with you
And we'll take and we'll drive
Take a look from the top of this hill
It's a beautiful ride down the side
If you don't take a spill
Oh, but we're gonna fly
Down side and back side
My board's gonna carry us through
'Cause I'm loving that feeling
Freewheelin' now baby with you
Love the feeling baby
We're freewheelin'
- [Camille] Roller skaters couldn't really
skate the streets before,
but the new urethane wheel opens up
outdoor roller skating.
It's just a beginning.
With that weird stance of his,
Kenny has a lot of stability
and he can slow himself down with 360s.
At high speeds, he really does have
better control than the skateboarders.
It's like he's got
wheels right on his feet.
(adventurous rock music)
- I got into it about, oh a year ago,
and some of my neighbors
started skateboarding
down at the school.
They told me just take my
skateboard down there with 'em,
so I went down and I
could ride it all right
and it was really fun,
but I just started thinking
if I could ride skates on the hill.
And I took it down one day
and I tried it and it
worked, and I don't know,
I was just kinda stumbling
around a little bit.
And it took me about four months
until I started really getting
till I started traveling
around to other places.
(adventurous rock music)
My balance like, it's different.
The top of my body from about the waist up
like I don't know it feels
kinda like a front side
bottom turn in a way.
It gets different all the time,
but the top wave, see it's just like,
and it's a lot like surfing.
(lively music)
- [Camille] Stacy finally
got back from San Francisco.
It seemed like he had been gone forever.
After that we stuck pretty close together,
like we were both on the same wave
and we were riding it together.
Got the sun on my shoulders
I got the wind on my side
Feels like I could fly on forever
When I take you out on a ride
