Storyline
While the rest of his high school graduating class is heading to the same old grind of college, skateboarder Eric Rivers and his best friends, Dustin, a goal-oriented workaholic, and misfit slacker Matt have one last summer roadtrip together to follow their dream of getting noticed by the professional skateboarding world--and getting paid to skate. When skating legend Jimmy Wilson's skate demo tour hits town, the boys figure that as soon as he sees their fierce tricks, he'll sign them up for his renowned skate team immediately, right? Unfortunately, the guys are intercepted by Jimmy's road manager and they can't get their foot in the door, much less their boards. But they do get some free advice: keep skating, stay true to yourself, and stay in the game--if you're good, you'll get noticed. Following their dream-- and Jimmy's national tour--Eric, Dustin and Matt start their own skate team, reluctantly sponsored by Dustin and his college fund. After recruiting laid-back ladies man Sweet... Written by Sujit R. Varma

Now I don't like skateboarding, i've never really been into it,
so i was not really interested in this movie, but my brother told me i had to watch this movie, so i said "fine i'll watch it" and I am so glad I did!!
it is the funniest dang movie i have seen in a long time!
Vince Vieluf is downright hilarious!! and tom green wasn't too bad either. If you have not seen it. Do so. Its worth it, and if you do not laugh, something is wrong.
