Overview

SK8-TV is a program shown on Nickelodeon that began in 1990 and was originally hosted by Matthew Lillard and Skatemaster Tate. It was a skateboard variety show that featured on-set interviews as well as off site action segments.

The set for the show was built on location at the Pink Motel in Sun Valley California which was famous for its large fish shaped pool that was ideal for skateboarding. It hosted a wide variety of skateboarders such as Christian Hosoi, Natas Kaupas, a young Tony Hawk and many others that went on to become famous and well known. It was created and produced by original Z-Boy Nathan Pratt and Mark Ashton Hunt from Binder Entertainment, directed by Stacy Peralta, who later went on to direct the retrospective documentary Dogtown and Z-Boys' with production design by C. R. Stecyk III.
