More Detail:

In AIRBORNE, Mitch Gooser is a California teenager whose life is surfing. When his parents go to Australia for research, Mitch gets to go–alas, not to Australia–but to a stark, wintery Cincinnati to live with his doting aunt and nerdy uncle. At school, Mitch’s strange-sounding talk, breezy California ways and total coolness make him a hit with the girls and a threat to guys, particularly some aggressive hockey players. The situation worsens when Mitch goes out with his chief opponent’s sister. Eventually, rollerblading and non-violence win Mitch’s acceptance in Cincinnati.

AIRBORNE is a fun and funny movie aimed at teenagers with brilliant rollerblading stunts and cresting ocean waves. There is some slapstick violence and very brief-rear male nudity. Its message to youth that non-violence is a mature way to handle conflict is a good one; however, the message comes dressed up in Eastern religion garb. Watch for references to Eastern religion and New Age thought.
