To the skaters in Northwest, the work put into designing and building parks is like "finding your own girlfriend as opposed to going to a whorehouse." Beginning with the construction of Portland, Oregon's, Burnside Park (immortalized in Tony Hawk video games), Northwest documents crews of ambitious skaters as they build ramps around Washington, Oregon and Idaho. What the mostly black-and-white Super 8 film lacks in big air it makes up for in gut-dropping elevation shifts and catastrophic obstacles.
