Though I only saw this movie once forty years ago, I, too, distinctly remember it.

It was a short before a feature, but the next day all I could talk about was 'Skaterdater'. I met someone else who had been equally effected by it. What I remember is the drama of a young California skate boarder rising to the challenge of plunging down a steep hill. Set to instrumental surf music, it made the hair on my neck stand up! The fact that the film won as many awards as it did assures me it wasn't just my imagination.

It's very cool to see it here on IMDb and learn who the director (Noel Black) and composer (Mike Curb) were and what they did. The children actors, who don't speak, never made another film. This is a timeless movie that should be available for all who seek
