Winner of 2013 Sheffield Adventure Film Festival Best Artistic Film (Bronze)

(For full list of results click here)

Presented as found footage, the 'Ski Boys' film reels show 'Deek' and his friends on their family farms in the summer of 1971 documenting their everyday adventures on Super 8 Film.  Their homemade inventions - including 8ft toboggans fitted with roller-skate wheels, a flying squirrel suit and the 'road' ski - epitomise the 'Why Don't You Just Switch Off Your Television Set and Go and Do Something Less Boring Instead?' spirit.
