well i myself am a skater and if any one else out there skates and has seen the film called "Girl Yeah right" Girl being the company Yeah Right being the film. wel any way there is some pretty special CGI in that by useing green screen, where they skate green boards and then edit out the boards so it lookin like there hovering along the flore and down rails they also edit out the board so its looks a board it sk8ing on its own, "The Hot Chocolate" is also a good film with inpressiove editing.
the coolest skating stuff ive seen...apart from arto saari in barcelona.

Yeah its stupidly good, i love the bit where they throw the board away and somone randomly catches it somewere else and dose some crazy trick/gap. Also if you ever get the chance to check out "Almost Round 3" and see Ryan Checkler section he is so good, he dose this crazy off some big building over the pavement and into the road and he is only like 14, Chris haslem is really good as well

it is in fact real! I saw the video a while back and if you search the net a bit more, because i just cant be bothered, you'll find another video of "the making" of the ad which shows them missing a lot of shots but then eventually getting them in.

The dog using a board in my avatar is from a pic taken at an nppl event a year or so ago......This can't be the same guys dog....but looks like the same breed..

So, I guess if you want a skateboarding dog you know what to look for.
