A visual history of skate culture in Australia - the people, the events and the products that drove it.
In 1974, Peter, Stephen and Matt Hill began a journey that would lead to a lifelong obsession with and dedication to skateboarding - soon creating a skateboarding business, Hardcore Enterprises, which would eventually become Globe and an international, publicly listed company.
From the brothers' first DIY decks and warehouse ramps to shopping centre demos, ramp riots, Easter tours and stadium spectaculars, this book traces the pivotal impact of Hardcore on skateboarding in Australia and beyond. Fifty years on, Hardcore and the multitude of skaters connected to its success are inseparable from the development of Australian skateboarding culture and remain at the beating heart of its future.
