"Venice beach is an adorable place for
roller-skaters. These roller-skaters come out of nowhere, and get together to
roller-skating. At the beach, everywhere is the place for roller-skating. Young
people are freewheeling on the street casually.
"Bobby James (Jim Bray) is an expert on skates, and works renting
them to the visitors on the beach. He dreams of being a world champion of
roller-skating, and is also skating with his friends also. Terry Barkley
