*Minding The Gap* is amazing, it's one of my favorite docs of all time. It's not about skateboarding history, or 'skate culture' in a general sense, but it is very much about skaters, why certain people are drawn to skating, and the community people find in their skate scenes. It's about a group of skaters in a small midwestern city, so it's kind of refreshing just to see a story about skating somewhere other than so
