The first 163 lines.
(wings flapping)
(epic music)
Yeah, yeah!
That is not easy and he's looking good.
There comes a time in every young man's life
when he can either rise to the occasion before him,
leading the charge into a glorious victory,
or he can succumb to the swirling storm around him
into a disastrous defeat.
Well, this guy's got big energy.
Let's see it.
Oh, there's the spin. Ah! (Crowd cheering)
Yeah, he's looking good, I like that.
And that looks like an 8.5
for our skimmer in red.
He's gonna have a slim lead over yellow now
blue is going to need at least an 8.9 to stay in this game.
And looks like there's gonna be five minutes
and 30 seconds on the clock.
And once again, priority's gonna be on the skimmer in blue
in the back.
Priority is skimmer in blue in the back.
(waves crashing)
(dramatic music)
Yeah! (Thunder clapping)
(waves crashing)
(thunder clapping)
(Chris groans)
Hey, buddy.
I got you. I got you.
I got you. Come here.
- Come here. - Oh. Oh.
Oh, what happened?
Well, you tried a backside 3-shuv.
Board slipped that from under you
and you went down like a sack of potatoes.
- Dude. - Oh.
You got nailed. What was that, man?
Take that.
You know, I got other forms of payment if you'd rather.
Oh, fuck off, Craig.
Son of a bitch, Chris.
If I knew you were gonna skim like Humpty Dumpty all day,
I wouldn't have bet on you.
Sorry, ma. I wasn't trying to
No, no, no. Look, no excuses.
You're gonna have to come up
with a little rent this month, okay?
Better step up your game.
I can pay the rent, mama.
Oh, that's sweet, honey. No, but we got it.
I mean it. (Beachgoers chattering)
So, ma, - Hmm?
What's for dinner?
Oh, well, son, I've been talking with some very fine.
South African gentlemen and they have procured me
a batch of dinosaur meat.
- Dinos? - Yes. Heck yes, dinos.
Super tasty batch.
And I have a very fine red paste that we could dip it into.
Oh yeah. (Jan laughing)
That sounds so good, ma.
Are you hungry, baby?
Oh, I'm really hungry.
Me too.
What about you, Chris?
When I get a job, ma,
I'm gonna buy you some better tasting dinos.
Hey stink.
So, my dad was asking about you.
Yeah?
Yeah.
He was wondering if you were still interested
in working for him part-time.
Ah.
- Babe? - I don't have time.
Well, you gotta do something.
I heard your mom earlier.
I got options. I just had a bad run this time.
It's not about having a good or bad run.
Even if you win all these little backyard competitions,
it's still not.
You know, we have real sponsors
coming out catching wind of us, right?
Like this isn't some little backyard thing.
It's still not enough to get you out of this town
like you always talked about.
I'm...
I get it.
College or school isn't for you, but I mean,
you need to, you just need to
I need to what?
You need to figure it out.
Yeah. You're right.
I do.
Chris?
All right. I'm telling you guys,
it's gonna be epic, all right?
Imagine people lining up to come to a spot that we made.
I bring some speakers, we get a cool band or two.
I get a mic and I host the motherfucker.
Dude, you really think that the girls you want
are gonna come hang out in some dirty alleyway
where a bunch of bums shoot up?
There's literal homeless people there, dude.
All right bro, it's not a dirty alleyway anymore
because I got access to a place with furniture and shit.
A stage, lights, the chicks I like,
they love sparkly lights and shit.
Sounds like a lot.
I mean, we've got such a cool chill spot.
Like we could just keep it just us, just hang.
Okay, but why not have an establishment
instead of just a dirty alleyway
where we waste time and we make some money?
All right, look, it's all about presentation, right?
Okay, we charge to let people into the events
and fuck it, we even get a bartender.
Bro, we're in high school.
Fuck you.
I'm not. I can get alcohol.
- Brent. - Dumb ass.
I need you again.
Yeah, dad, one sec.
God damn, it's like he needs something every fucking second.
Well, you gonna see what he needs?
Yeah, I'm gonna go in a minute.
Bro, I'll go see.
Yeah, be my guest.
Dude, I, I can't roll joints for shit, man.
Let me see that thing.
Bro?
Fucking sucks.
Hey sonny.
Hey Mr. Ward.
What can I do for you?
I just need my Procarbazine.
It's in the cabinet across from the fridge.
Yeah, no problem.
Thanks.
How we doing, Jake?
Better not see you take 10 minutes
to brush your teeth again, huh?
Yeah.
Come on. What's the matter with you? Let's go.
Oh, not you again.
Oh, check this out.
A blank paper with gum on it?
Oh.
Off Rip Skim Bash. Special guest Lucas Fink.
"Bringing the Off Rip Skim Bash to Redington Shores.
Go from beach bum to pro skimmer
with a chance to get sponsored by ZAP."
Why would they bring this here?
Because we're here, jit.
Or I'm here, my name's been spreading
across the gulf for years, I got you a clean one.
Cool. No gum on it?
Yeah, just make sure you register at the tourney.
To be official. (Phone buzzing)
Fuck, I gotta go bro.
But, I will,
see you in the trenches, soldier.
