Rodney Mullen was doing the stunt work in the 1989 skateboard movie "Gleaming the Cube" with Christian Slater. He is young and wearing a wig, but sure enough - his routine is still cut from marble
Edit: I also recommend his book "The Mutt: How to Skateboard and Not Kill Yourself". A great read!
get the mutt, rodney mullen's autobiography.

I learned a whole bunch of stuff from reading his autobiography. Back in Rodney's freestyling days, he would sand down his boards into various shapes and it would help him perform certain tricks better. Sometimes he would make a rounder nose and a tail because boards used to look like this. Also, he sanded down the sides to lock into a perfect primo/to-rail trick.
Here's some more recent evidence in his Almost Round 3 part(notice how the tail and nose are more squared off than normal).
I watched a ton of Epically Later'd years ago, not so much these days.
As far as my top 3 skate books?
That's the cover from/to his book, The Mutt.
He also wrote a cool Book
