“Style” is one of Charles Bukowski’s most famous poems, and here it serves as the backdrop for an animated video paying tribute to various styles of skateboarding. The audio is of Bukowski reading his own work, and the video was made by filmmaker Joe Pease.

It comes from the TransWorld SKATEboarding magazine and premiered at the 2014 TWS Awards.

style is the answer to everything —
a fresh way to approach a dull or a
dangerous thing.
to do a dull thing with style
is preferable to doing a dangerous thing
without it.
