A close look at four legendary world champion skateboarders; Jay Adams from Dogtown's Z Boys, Christian Hosoi, Dennis Martinez (world champion), Bruce Logan (world skateboarding champion).
D.O.P.E. takes a long look at legendary skateboarders as they achieve world wide fame by winning world championships and then descent into the world of drug addiction and crime. This documentary is moving and is geared as a warning to those who are considering drug experimentation. It features unseen archival skateboarding footage of the founders of skateboarding as we know it today.—Brian Stewart
The film examines their rise to the top and their eventual descent into the drug and crime culture. By concentrating on their redemption and current lives as well as their fame and fall from fame this film carves a unique posture in the world of sports/skater pictures and documentaries in general.—Ulf Kjell Gür
