Let’s put this bluntly.
Fuck skateboarding in the Olympics, we have no time for jock straps and soda pops, uniforms and neckerchiefs. Take to the streets this is where we come to watch the real beasts perform.
Embark on a wild ride through city streets, crusty spots and wild drug fueled parties in dingy garages. Dragging you backwards through the mud, blood, sweat and tears of skateboarding.
A group of hard skating, drug taking party animals known as Team Biffta hailing from the stomping grounds of Cannock in the West Midlands, U.K.
Delve deep into skate boarding’s underground and into a strange and twisted saga of Team Biffta.
Indulge in consciousness expansion, frenzied trips and stare straight in the face of a total psychotic freak-out.
A family more than friends, brothers not bound by blood but a kinship that runs deeper than mere blood, drugs, money and orgies. Deeper than skateboarding and adolescent youth in rebellion yet conveying the understandable tendency to yield to the temptation of drugs.
It would be wrong to assume the inevitable displacement of all drug users.
