Transworld Skateboarding takes skateboarding videos to a higher level with its latest feature, Sight Unseen. This 40-minute video makes boarding look less like a hobby or sport, and more like a graceful art. Great music, including catchy raps or a smooth beat, combined with precise and inventive editing gives Sight Unseen a sophistication lacking in most other boarding videos. But even with the extra polish, Transworld keeps it simple by focusing on just five main skaters, John Cardiel, Henry Sanchez, Tosh Townend, Dustin Dollin, and Heath Kirchart, who are at their best (and occasionally their worst). High points include an 18-stair jump by Dollin, tons of air time from Cardiel, bonus footage of Bob Burnquist doing the loop switch on his first try, and plenty of wipeouts. And don't miss the credits section at the end. It features even more offbeat and creative footage. --Neal Marks

It is a sight to see January 12, 2004

This video ranks as one of the best videos of all time. The collaboration of styles and flavors is a perfect blend of technical and basically big skating. Heath Kirkchart deservingly won best video part of the year for this. His style is to be touched by none and all the people in this video are totally great. Henry Sanchez takes incredibly difficult tricks and just makes them look like childs play. John Cardiel rips it like none other. He is an amazing skater who can be apreciated by just about anyone. If you are a fan of skateboarding even if you're not you will LOVE this video. The montages are the best I've seen in a skatevideo.

Apparently there are two versions of this DVD. The one you get from here distributed by Redline and the "Special Edition" one that has all the extra goodies...I recommend this video it's one of my favorites, I all ready have the tape version of it, just was hoping to get the DVD version with all the extra bits like: Improved edit and audio, Behind-the-Scenes footage, skater's and director's commentaries, additional audio and footage, photo archives with commentary, alternate intros, isolated audio score, plus much more So when you order it make sure you get the "Special Edition" one.

FANTASTIC, BUT CAREFUL WHICH VERSION U BUY! May 23, 2002

One of the best skate video's ever made in my opinion (and ever since watching the Bones Brigade Video Show I've seen most of them), it's worth buying for John Cardiel's mind-blowing part alone!The version you can buy ...(produced by Redline) whilst being amazing does not have any of the extras that you get if you buy this DVD from a skate shop (or direct from TWS), so it's up to you - 40 minutes from here, or an hour plus (including a guide to the accordian with Matt Hensley, outtakes, photo gallery, chomp trailer and alternate edits) if you get the "real" version....
