Eight skaters living in a run-down East Vancouver house set out to make "the ultimate skater video." Their real lives, tricks and pranks play out while they shoot their video and learn that "the summer of your life" doesn't come without a few lessons in humility. Living the high life, landing tricks, evading security guards and going on a raucous road trip through the wilds of British Columbia fill their days, while evading motel managers and taking part in East Vancouver skate park hijinks consume their nights. Sometimes you land the trick. Sometimes it lands you...Hard!

S. Wyeth Clarkson's background in film editing spawned his fascination with the "language of cinema." Having worked with some of Canada's foremost feature film and documentary directors, he set out to make a film that would synergize these two worlds to such an extent that one would no longer be distinguishable from the other. Sk8 Life is Wyeth's second feature film, after deadend.com (2002), and he looks forward to many more years challenging the cinematic boundaries of storytelling.
