Ride along with Kirkwood Vangeli '17 as he takes us through the world of Memphis skateboarding. Kirkwood’s short film, Grit Grind Ride, premieres Saturday, Nov. 5 at the Indie Memphis Film Festival. Showtime is 10:30 a.m. at Circuit Playhouse.
As a student at Rhodes College, Kirkwood found a way to make a business, Fluxus Skateboard Co., out of his passion for the board and, for extra measure, added a burgeoning film career covering the skateboarding scene. Like many others, Kirkwood says he found his true self at Rhodes.
