Static II Is Now Available - Static II - The Invisibles is now available. In this follow up to 2000's underground video Static, filmmaker and Skatepark of Tampa Team Rider, Josh Stewart, brings you another completely independent and unique skateboard video experience. When you pop Static II into your DVD player, don't expect to see circus acts, school yards, blue skies, or tricks requiring parachutes before takeoff. Expect skating that connects to the reasons you stepped onto a board in the first place. Expect a video you'll want to watch every day before you go out skating. Except inspiration. For what you'll witness in Static II is skating that is easy on the eyes - street skating in real actual streets.
