    Storyline

    Edit
    Andy "Brink" Brinker and his in-line skating crew--Peter, Jordy, and Gabriella--who call themselves "Soul-Skaters" (which means they skate for the fun of it, and not for the money), clash with a group of sponsored skaters, Team X-Bladz--led by Val--with whom they attend high school in southern California. When Brink discovers that his family is in financial trouble, he goes against his parents' and friends' wishes and joins Team X-Bladz. Will he be able to pull off this double life? —Anonymous

    • Goofs
      As Gabriella speaks to Brink before the first downhill race, there's a closeup where her helmet is buckled, but in the next shot she's taken it off and it's unbuckled, but in the next shot when she tucks down, her helmet is buckled again.
    • Quotes

      Brink: When you woke up this morning, did you say to yourself 'Today, I'm gonna talk.' or 'Today, I'm gonna skate!'?

    A Family Favorite
    I have been watching and enjoying Brink with my family since I was 10 years old in 1998. It's a favorite of mine and my family and it always will be. I think anyone who enjoys underdog stories will like this one and they should definitely check it out. It's for sure one of the Disney Channel's best releases.

    Erik von Detten is great in his part, as well as Patrick Levis, Sam Horrigan and everyone else. The story is very simple but also very fun and light hearted. I also should mention that I really enjoyed the soundtrack to this one as I am a big punk and ska fan. Check this one out with your whole family if you can get a hold of it.
