I really can't say enough good things about this TV show. I don't have any children myself but I enjoy this show none the less. This show is on Nickelodeon, and it is basically about 4 kids, Otto, his sister Reggie, and 2 other friends, Maurice and Sam. These kids are always catching waves, Skateboarding, street hockey, and just about any other extreme sport you can think of. These kids love to be outside all day enjoying eachother's company and being active. You will rarely catch these characters loitering. That is one thing that I think makes this show such a winner for me. This show encourages children to get out and enjoy life and try new things. Heck, it even made ME want to learn a few sports! There are also some positive adults in this show, such as Otto & Reggies dad, and the owner of a burger shack on the beach. They really help make this show work by teaching lessons in a "cool" way. The kids are intelligent and cool at the same time. I really think that this cartoon will benefit all children in a good way, but I would rather reccomend this show to children 9 and older, as it would be an oppuritune age to begin extra-curricular sports such as these, and the kids on the show are 10-12 years old.
