Bookroo's summary

Matty, a blind skateboarder with unmatched skills, enters the state's biggest competition. Former champion Bing Hawtin ridicules him, doubting his chances. But Matty has a secret edge—seeing isn't everything. Can Matty prove his worth and defy expectations on the ramps?

From the publisher

Matty Lyons is a top-notch skateboarder who can do all the coolest tricks. His moves are even more impressive since he’s blind. But not everyone is a fan of the talented grinder. During the state’s biggest skating competition, former champion Bing Hawtin mocks Matty, saying that a blind kid has no chance to win. But Matty knows something Bing doesn’t . . . seeing isn’t everything.
