Movie Ads of the Week: SPINN'IN WHEELS and FREEWHEELIN' (both 1976)

FREEWHEELIN', from Irwin Yablans' short-lived Turtle Releasing Corp., opened in Tallahassee, FL on September 17, 1976 and has been touted by some as the first feature film about skateboarding. However...
...SPINN'IN WHEELS, by 22-year-old, two time U.S. surfing champ Chris Carmichael, beat it to theaters by several months. Above is an ad for its matinee shows in Fort Collins, CO during the weekend of May 21, 1976.
