On BINZ Episode 2, Chey and Levi have an in-depth conversation with filmmaker, Yeah Bo magazine creator, and No More Heroes documentary director Andrew Moore.
They dive into his journey documenting Aotearoa’s skate scene, from the 70s with his dad’s homemade boards and being the youngest rider sponsored by Edwards, gritty DIY ramps, Skateopia, to the stories about his trip to the States, being asked to skate for Sims, and behind the scenes with some of the country’s most influential skaters.
Andrew shares what inspired his iconic projects, the challenges of capturing raw skate culture on film, the licensing issues of making a full-length documentary and what the future holds. This is another must-listen episode.
