Elsewhere is the definitive oral history of British skateboarding. Told chronologically from the beginning of its identity shift to the start of the new millennium, the book explores the lasting influence British skateboarding continues to have on fashion, film, photography, art and media.
While British skateboarders moved the sport away from its Californian roots, embracing a different terrain, with skaters in the north taking to ramps in abandoned warehouses and those in the south skating the streets of new developments, the story of skateboarding in the UK goes far beyond the act of riding a board. As important were the cottage industries of clothes manufacturing, photography, filmmaking, and zine production that were inspired by British skateboarders, many of which are now multimillion-dollar brands that regulate mainstream culture today.
Suitable not only for skaters but for anyone interested in film, fashion and photography, Elsewhere tells the story of skateboarding in the UK during the pivotal era of 1987–2002 when the British iteration of the sport developed its own unique identity and subsequently went on to inspire and transform global popular culture.
