The subculture of this documentary is skaters. I think that the movie is an ethnographic study but it is also entertaining as well. I think that the interviews were very good to help move the story along. They were the ones that were actually really there so they know what happened. They were a group they had their own rituals like for example they had to get it approved by the group if they were going to bring someone with them. Some of the stereotypes that were put on this group was that they were surfers, most of them had long hair and they were tough. They didn't take anything from the other people that weren't locals. I think that this documentary was very good because it not only showed past views and scenes from the past but also what the skaters thought about the group now looking back on themselves. I really enjoyed the documentary not just because it was about skating but because the group was very well filmed in the past and future and I think that makes for a good documentary.
