A drought in 1970s Southern California has an unexpected side effect: as people empty their swimming pools, a group of teen surfers from the Dogtown area of Venice Beach move in with skateboards, and a new sport is born. Based on a true story, this film follows ''Z-Boys'' skate team members Stacy Peralta, Tony Alva and Jay Adams, plus manager Skip Engblom, as their fearless ''pool surfing'' leads to fame, fortune -- and misfortune.
