Story:
"Cloud Nine" centers on a group of teens who attend Summit Valley High
and compete in Snowboarding. Will Cloud is a former teen snowboarding
ace who gave up competing after fracturing his leg in an event, and now
helps his mother run her pet spa for dogs at the upscale Summit Valley
Resort. After the resort owner's daughter Kayla moves to town, Will ends
up coaching her to compete in the Summit Valley Fire & Ice Games
Half Pipe Snowboard event. As the two become close, romance is
inevitable. Action, deception, humor, and a group of jammin' dogs makes
for an amazing story of human spirit!
