Skater Boys (2005)

In a teen-oriented spin-off of the skater-punk movie 'Grind', starring Adam Brody, director Richard L. Fox takes the franchise into the world of television. Influenced by the original movie and the hit song by Avril Lavigne, it captures the raw emotion of high school from the skater-teen perspective. Called "Grind meets The OC," Skater Boys has the potential to be great, and expectations are that and more. Real kids with raw talent take the prospect of high school and the passion that is skating to the next level on their venture to go pro. Three ninth-grade students must master the ultimate trick, and it's not the 360 bunny-hop twirl--it's high school.
