For Altamont’s latest trip to Paris, France, we tapped Randy Randall from the band No Age to film and direct our new tour DVD, a short film entitled The Foreigners. (View a little teaser above.) In this film, Randy captured an impressionist's view of the Altamont skate team abroad from his unique visual artist's perspective; encapsulating the look, the feel and, of course, the skating to produce this short glimpse of life on the road with Altamont.

The Foreigners is available FREE with any Altamont purchase at your local stockist while supplies last, so hitch it fast! As an added enticement, the DVD also features a free video for the No Age song "Eraser" off their new album Nouns on Sub Pop records.

Ricky Powell, also known as The Rickster, has seen a lot of history. He has worked as a busboy, bike messenger, Frozade vendor, substitute teacher, columnist, cable television host, comic and dog walker. But, he is best-known as a wisecracking, self-described "playground rat" who used his beat-up Minolta and party-crashing skills to become a nightlife fixture and a chronicler of the then-exploding world of hip-hop.--New York Times
