Item 1.                      Security and Issuer.

This statement on Schedule 13D (this “Statement”) relates to the Common Shares, $0.001 par value (“Common Shares”), of Skye International, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Issuer”).  The address of the principal executive office of the Issuer is 7701 E. Gray Road, Suite 4 Scottsdale, Arizona 85260.


Item 2.                      Identity and Background.

(a)           Name:  Thaddeus (Ted) F. Marek

(b)
Present principal occupations:  Principal and designated broker for Ted Marek Real Estate Co.

(c)           Address of principal office:  9977 N. 90th Street, Suite 220, Scottsdale, Arizona 85258

(d)           Conviction in a criminal proceeding:  no

(e)           Violations of federal or state securities laws:  no

(f)           Citizenship:  United States


Item 3.                      Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

Mr. Marek, through Ted Marek Real Estate Defined Benefit Pension Plan (the “Plan”), was issued 175,000 shares of common stock of the Issuer in connection with investments of debt securities of the Issuer totaling $350,000 in 2004.  Mr. Marek, the Plan and Ted Marek Family Trust (the “Trust”) began purchasing shares of the Issuer in the open market beginning in December 2006.  Mr. Marek and his wife, Beverly A. Marek, are the trustees of the Trust.  Personal funds were used for all investments and purchases.

During 2007 and through April 10, 2008, Mr. Marek, the Plan and the Trust purchased a total of 6,408,000 shares from the Issuer for $686,715 in private placements.

During 2007 and through April 10, 2008, the Issuer has issued Mr. Marek a total of 250,000 shares for his service as a director.


Item 4.                      Purpose of Transaction.

Mr. Marek became a director of the Issuer in January 2007 and an officer of the Issuer in October 2007.  The Issuer’s board of directors has determined that it is necessary for the Issuer to issue debt and/or equity securities to implement its plan of operations.  Mr. Marek, the Plan, and/or the Trust may participate in a private placement of such securities from time to time.

As a director, Mr. Marek tries to determine whether the persons serving as directors or management best serve the needs of the Issuer.  Accordingly, from time to time, Mr. Marek may propose a change to the Issuer’s board of directors and/or management in carrying out this duty.

A reverse split of the Issuer’s common stock has been proposed but not yet implemented.

Except as described herein, Mr. Marek does not presently have any plan and is not considering any proposal that relates or would result in any of the actions enumerated in Item 4 of Schedule 13D.  Mr. Marek may form such a plan or proposal in the future.
