Ride Channel was happy to give this documentary some additional exposure in hopes that its story can help someone struggling with mental health.
“We Are Skateboarders: A Mental Health Transformation” is an autobiographical, experimental documentary that uncovers the story behind filmmaker Ben Duffy’s first breakout film We Are Skateboarders—and the 15-year mental health battle that followed.
At just 19 years old, Ben created a film that became the second most viewed skateboarding documentary in history, behind Dogtown and Z-Boys. But as the film gained momentum, Ben’s life unraveled. Living with undiagnosed bipolar disorder, complex PTSD, trauma, and overwhelming pressure, he began a journey that forced him to redefine what success really means.
This raw and deeply personal documentary follows Ben as he finally steps into therapy, faces long-buried pain, and transforms suffering into creativity, healing, and self-compassion.
It’s a story about skateboarding, yes—but even more, it’s a story about mental health, resilience, and rebuilding a life.

After moving to California about two years ago, Keenan Lewis has been dialing in his skating on all fronts. Last year, he pulled a well-deserved Lunatic Fringe feature in Thrasher and then earned the win at PHX Am. From the contest formats to the streets, he’s undeniable. A self-proclaimed Skatepark of Tampa baby, Keenan spends the day showing off a bit of his impeccable rail game—he blames it on SPoT.
Keenan takes us for a warm-up session at Paul Rodriguez Skatepark off Laurel Canyon Boulevard before hitting two totally different styles of sidewalk spots in Sun Valley and North Hills. Then, to cap things off, he stacks a final round of clips at Los Angeles Valley College. A couple of quick ledge tricks to rewarm the legs before toying around on a six-stair, then he battles through a broken board to get the backside tailslide down the healthy 10-stair. Like we said, he’s undeniable.
