A BMX accident shakes Billy's confidence and friendship. Can he overcome his fears?
Billy Cruz, a BMX enthusiast, faces a daunting challenge after a severe accident leaves him with broken bones and shaken confidence. As he struggles to regain his edge on the bike, his scores plummet, and his best friend Penny's odd behavior adds to his troubles. Can Billy conquer his fears and uncover what's really going on with Penny, or will his dreams of BMX glory slip away?
It was just another day on the BMX street course for Billy Cruz. He lunged down the pipe, rode the ramp high into the air, and tweaked his bike for a perfect Superman – when suddenly he lost his grip on the seat. Cruz hit the concrete – hard – and wound up in the hospital with several broken bones. Six long weeks later, Billy finally got back on his bike. But now, he can’t help but hold back a bit on his tricks, and his scores are starting to suffer. To add insult to injury, Billy’s best friend, Penny, has been acting strange since the accident.
