Push To Pedal

submitted by develosoof on 11/16/15 1

A skateboarding and cycling experience/journey on the island of Fuerteventura. By Joe Gavin 2014. 27 minutes. 'Push to Pedal' is a documentary about four skaters, turned-bike-builders who crafted custom frames specially for Carhartt WIP skaters (Joseph Biais, Joe Gavin, Giovanni Grazzani and Pete Ruikka). The group then hit the road together in Fuerteventura/ Canary Islands for a week long adventure of cycling, skating and exploration. For one week, the whole crew stayed at the Casa Maccaroni, in Lajares, which is located in the middle of a desert pierced by only a few little volcanoes, in the north part of the island. From there they would cycle to spots on a average 45 km a day. Going to cities and villages, skating, coming back. With no training, this trip turned out to be pretty tough for the skaters, but made them realize skate tours can be more than just sitting in a van to get to spots. A memorable experience for most of them. “Push to pedal” entered the Bicycle Film Festival 2014 in NYC, Moscow and Helsinki along few side skateshops and bicycle stores screenings.
