Bookroo's summary

Joss Kendrick is a dedicated surfer aiming to win a video contest with her bulldog and best friend. But her brother Dylan throws a challenge her way: try out for the cheer team. Joss can't imagine herself in cheerleading, but if it means getting Dylan's help with her video, she might just take the plunge. Can Joss balance the waves and the pom-poms, or will her surfer spirit prevail? Dive into Joss's world where the stakes are high, and the waves are calling.

From the publisher

In this first book of her series, catching waves on her board, Joss is all in, 100%. When the surf’s up, she pops out her hearing aid, hops on her board, and paddles into the waves. Joss is stoked to enter a surfing video contest with her surf sister Sofia and Murph the surfing bulldog. If she can master a killer aerial like the frontside air and get her brother Dylan to catch it on video, maybe she’d even have a shot at winning. But Dylan throws her a curve: he dares her to try out for the cheer team. No way – Joss can’t see herself as a cheerleader. (What’s with those ginormous hair bows, anyway?) She’s 100% surfer girl, and Dylan knows it! Still, if she takes him up on his dare, then maybe he’ll help her with her video . . . it’s worth a try, right?
