The Skateboard Kid
Why take the road when you can fly?
Directed by Larry Swerdlove
Produced by Concorde-New Horizons
A lighthearted family fantasy about a lonely boy who finds friendship and confidence through a magical, wisecracking skateboard.
No one could be more bored than Zack, the new kid in town with no friends in sight. When a gang of hip, skateboarding thrashers start cruising his neighborhood, Zack hopes his luck will change. But they want nothing to do with him. Then Zack makes the discovery of his life: a talking wisecracking, magical skateboard. And suddenly, skateboarding rises to entirely new heights.
