"All I'm saying is that if you took it down a notch or two, you'd make the jumps and save the injuries." "I always make the jumps," I argued. "What are you talking about?" "I make the jumps. It's the landings that I'm having trouble with." Philip lives for skateboarding. School is merely the break between trying to land a difficult jump and outrunning the security guards. When he and his best friend Wally meet a professional skateboarder who videotapes himself for his website, Philip thinks they can do it too—and make money at the same time. When they start getting hits on their website—and making money—they start to feel the pressure to do more and more dangerous stunts. This is Eric Walters’ second entry in the Orca Soundings series. Eric is a prolific author and a tireless presenter in schools from coast to coast.
