In 1988 Mack Dawg Productions released a skateboarding film called ?Sick Boys?. Shot entirely on Super 8 film ?Sick Boys? documents the early street skating movement in San Francisco along with footage of select demos, skate camps and competitions from those formative times.

Free from outside control or industry support, ?Sick Boys? was produced without any sponsors and had a limited distribution of 1,000 VHS copies worldwide. Sick Boys has become a cult classic that truly depicts how fun and care free skating was 20 years ago. From the roots of the whole street movement to classic road trips and excursions ?Sick Boys? remains relevant to this day.
