Bookroo's summary

Zach dives into skateboarding, unaware of the unspoken rules about image and attitude. As he navigates this new world, he faces pressure to conform. Can he stay true to himself and still compete, or will his 'normal' demeanor leave him sidelined? Discover if Zach can carve his own path in a culture that demands conformity.

From the publisher

When Zach takes up skateboarding, he doesn’t realize that he’s expected to look a certain way and cop a certain attitude. He’s not comfortable with any of those things. He just want’s to have fun, and perhaps enter a few competitions. Will he be ostracized because he looks and acts so normal?
