Stoked Rise & Fall of Gator DVD VIDEO Video
DESCRIPTION:
Mark "Gator" Rogowski, a legendary 1980s skateboarder. Beginning with the shocking news of Gator's demise-he brutally raped and murdered a woman, buried her in the San Diego desert, and received a 31-year prison sentence-the film then goes back to Gator's beginnings when he was just an innocent 14 year old kid. Gator set the stage for many of skateboarding's moves and styles as one of the most impressive "vert" performers of all time. Footage of Gator soaring off the ramp in a dramatic arc demonstrate his clear prowess. A devilish, cocky personality only helped propel Gator into the spotlight as the poster boy for Vision Street Wear, a brand that was once synonymous with the sport's image. As skateboarding became more mainstream and Gator got wealthy and sold out (the film features interviews with former girlfriend Brandi McClain who lived with him in a sprawling California mansion situated on an avocado grove) he soon lost his street cred and was dumped by the industry. Testimonials from Gator's former friends-skating icons like Jason Jessee, Ken Park, and Tony Hawk-shed light on the sport as a counterculture movement while telling funny, sad, insightful, and often scathing stories about Gator. This documentary from director Helen Stickler paints a sometimes inspiring, yet increasingly menacing portrait of Gator that illustrates how his crime cast a dark shadow over the otherwise fun and carefree world of professional skateboarding.
