Question

Everyone has a thing.

Your name is Andie, and skateboarding is yours. In second grade, you stole your brother’s skateboard and learned to Ollie, so your dad bought you your own board.

In your last three competitions, you’ve placed first, second, and first again, and today, you’re hoping to add another medal to your collection to hang right next to your poster of the Empire Fish Face, a band that your mom sort of disapproves of.

Today, you’re meeting your best friend, Paige, who is the only local skater known to (sometimes) beat you in competition, and right now you’re headed to the closest skatepark to warm up before the competition. You love skating! You’re even doing it to celebrate your birthday, which just happens to be tomorrow.

As you drop your board on the ground and head toward the park, you run over the list of tricks in your head.
