Sick Boys - Mack Dawg - DVD

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 contests 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 Hosoi, Tony Mag, Eric Dressen, Danny Sargent, Jason Jessee, and many, many more. Free from outside control or industry support, Sick Boys was produced without sponsors and had a limited distribution of 1000 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 proudly announces the re release of 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, Bryce Kanights, Jim Thiebaud, Natas Kaupas, Mike Archimedes, Mickey Reyes, and Ron Allen. These 2008 interviews provide great insight into the way skating was back then and how being a featured skater in SICK BOYS has changed and intertwined their lives. Also included is a collectors booklet of classic photographic images shot by Bryce Kanights, Luke Ogden, and Tobin Yelland.
