an unpretentious little comedy about a crazy "sport" that makes the most of its low budget with an easy-going good humor in a goofy but sweet story.

Naturally, they decide to put wheels on it, thus creating a new sport called boxboarding. After several amusing experiences testing out their creation, one of which lands them on the news, the underdogs gain instant fame at their school. This thoroughly pisses off archenemy ALEXANDER KEENE, a rich kid whose parents are unethical attorneys. Seeing the potential for marketing the boxboards, Alexander sets a high-stakes competition in motion, where the winner will secure all rights to what might be the next hula-hoop. Adding to the mix is James’s obnoxious little brother RICK JAMES, who is supposedly “gifted and talented;” STEPHANIE MCCOY, a cutie who has a thing for Ty; and TARA ROCKWELL, a stuck-up hottie who sees the potential for MTV exposure if she enters the race. But the high-schoolers are not nearly as tweaked as their parents, including Ty’s very flamboyant father and James’s psychobabbling psychiatrist dad…. climaxing in a race that gives new definition to the word ridiculous.
