Trivia:

Landspeed was a division of Tum Yeto Inc. from 1998 - 2000. The full company name was Landspeed Wheels or Landspeed Research Wheels. They made skateboard wheels and clothing. Landspeed produced CKY, but when Bam found out that the man behind Tum Yeto, Tod Swank, was ripping him off with it, he left Toy Machine and took the CKY video with him, hence removing the Landspeed title and other references. Landspeed Wheels later went into liquidation being classed as a complete failure.

So this is where it all began. . .

Just got this from Netflix, and I was pleasantly surprised. First of all, THIS IS NOT JACKASS. Some of the random pranksters from Jackass make an appearance, but this is Brandon and Bam's movie, nothing more or less. Some of the skits are excellent, some fall flat, but all of the skateboarding is awesome. This movie will definitely make you laugh, especially if you spent your high school days wreaking havoc on your crappy town because there was nothing better to do. Watching this also made me wonder what Mr. DiCamillo is up to these days, he seems to have a lot of talent resting inside that demented head of his. Anyway, this is not for everyone, but if you are a fan of Bam it is a must see.
