My recollection is that this was one of a small series of videos produced by Lol Creme under the name “Videola”. This was a skateboard one, but others were more music-based. Lol’s son, Lalo (?) was the skate connection, I think.
There was some very snotty comments floating around at the time about clippings from Peralta’s cutting room floor, but I had my usual “everything’s for the best, in this, the best of all possible worlds” glasses on, and I liked it. No taste, obviously.

never saw it but for some reason I ended up with a some inlays for this - maybe they overprinted & then used them as flyers?

I really liked Attack, probably because it was a mate who spent the tenner on a measly 12 minutes worth of skating!!
For me this video filled a gap between Public Domain, Shakle Me Not and Ban This (please correct me if my memory fails me!!) and any skate exposure in the 90’s was welcome.
I think this video also gave us our first video look at Hawk skating his bowl addition (again, correct me if I’m wrong) - front side slide around the corner - rad.

I’ve still got this. I loved it, but then my video collection only consisted of Streets of Fire and Shackle Me Not. I’d previously seen Public Domain and saw this as an extension of their higher-production-values visual style…. Ahh, that’s bollocks! What I really mean was that, as a kid, any flashy american skating was literally mesmerising to me. Hawk was simply astonishing in it.

Attack was great- For me to skate towards my first pro (Ray Barbee) deck and enabled the study of the no-comply and shov it realm of the day! I’m still wearing vision suede shell toe hi tops for the love. Can’t beat the Barbee intro on gutarrrrrrr. Inspiring Bom t Bass

I’m fascinated to see how ‘Attack’ seems to have struck a chord for quite a few people, even if there was a strange feeling about it when it came out.
