Skateboarding on ABC's "Wide World of Sports" in 1977

This was the take of ABC's Wide World of Sports on skateboarding, I believe it was filmed in late 1976 and aired in early 1977 when they had a gap to fill.

This video is actually in three parts has commercials and all. When it goes black it's for the local station to air their commercials. Classic stuff

I put part 2 first since it has the most skateboarding in it, but part one has a great intro at the beginning and a preview at the end (each just a few minutes).

part 2


part 1


part 3 (no skateboarding)
