“THE SIGNAL HILL SPEED RUN” is a skateboarding documentary about the world’s first downhill skateboarding races, produced and directed by John Carnoy & Mike Horelick and narrated by Grammy-Award winning musician and skateboarder, Ben Harper. See the trailer HERE.
A ridiculously steep hill in California set the stage for a festival of innovation, speed, danger and thrills. From 1975 to 1978, the Signal Hill Speed Run was an annual event, started by Jim O’Mahoney upon request by The Guinness Book of World Records show, hosted by noted Brit David Frost. THE SIGNAL HILL SPEED RUN, does a fine job of chronicling some of the most dangerous downhill racing ever seen in skateboarding. This is pure crash-up-demolition-derby-style skateboarding.
