Visiting Nigeria always leaves you wanting more.

Crocodile Smile is a short form documentary from Jonathan Pinkhard, documenting a DIY build on Tarkwa Bay in Lagos, Nigeria.

With South African’s skateboarding DIY guru Pieter Retief leading proceedings, along with fellow travellers and locals from skate brand WAF, Crocodile Smile acts as both a visual skate trip and a calling card to the power of community and the DIY ethos.
