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. The film primarily focuses on legends Tommy Guerrero, Mickey Reyes, Bryce Kanights, Mike Archimedes, Natas Kaupas, Julien Stranger, Jim Thiebaud, Ron Allen, and Steve Caballero as well as shots of Christian Hosoi, Tony Magnusson, Eric Dressen, Danny Sargent, and many, many others.
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. In order to commemorate this visual history, Mack Dawg Productions is proud to re-release Sick Boys for the first time on DVD.
Included extras within the re-release are the Sick Boys to Men never-before seen interviews with Tommy Guerrero, Mickey Reyes, Bryce Kanights, Mike Archimedes, Natas Kaupas, Julien Stranger, Jim Thiebaud, and Ron Allen. These 2008 interviews provide great insight into the way skating was back then and how being a skater featured in Sick Boys has changed and intertwined their lives. Also included is a collectors booklet with classic photographic images from Bryce Kanights, Tobin Yelland and Luke Ogden.

This video is the shit!!! My favorite part is when they are in the hotel room reminiscing about all their sickest tricks and Tony Hawk ollies over that cyclone fence! I wish they had that clip on here.

Yep TSOL Dance with me is defanitally on par with other early 80's hardcore punk classics. Music's peak.

Not sure? I was ten when I saw it? All I remember was that it had a rad amping soundtrack and at the start it had some geek making a homemade board in his garage then he comes out as some pro killing it down the street. Then that old punk rock starts blairing and my life changed from being an up and coming rugby playin jock to the wholesome reality of boardriding and good music, which only existed in the underground of 80's music. Gotta see that video again. Seeing sick boys again is emotional.

If you invoke "Summer Sessions", then you are most definitely old school. That video got me hooked on TSOL!
Wasn't that Sure-Grip International's team video?
