• Movie Goof (anachronisms): Early in the film, there's a scene where Jay, his mom and Sid are eating at the restaurant where Stacy works. Sid offers his American Express card to cover the meal. When the card is handed over, you can clearly see a magnetic stripe on the back. Magnetic stripes didn't exist on credit cards in the 70s.
• While filming a scene in an empty pool, director Catherine Hardwicke fell and was knocked unconscious for two minutes. Many of the cast and crew thought she had died. When she came to, the pro-skaters there said "Now you know how it feels. Welcome to the club."
• CAMEO(Tony Hawk): has a cameo as the astronaut that falls off the skateboard.
• Emile Hirsch claims the hardest trick he performed for the film was bombing down Bicknell Hill in Venice because he had to do the trick fast, shirtless, and with the camera car alongside him.
