After his parents divorce, Austin (Age 10) moves to a new beach town in Southern California with his mom.  Austin is invited into a ragtag crew of young surfers who have made themselves right at home on the short block wall between the sand and the boardwalk.  A remarkable friendship is formed and by the time Austin is sixteen, he and his gang are some of the best surfers in Southern California.  Though he’s now the most talented, Austin has to face his deepest fears if he is going to reach his fullest potential and find the God-given purpose to his life.  His search leads him to an unlikely mentorship with his new sponsor—a salty surfboard shaper who runs a church youth group out of his surf shop behind the wall. It’s along the wall that Austin first learns about God, falls in love, deals with the death of a local surf legend, faces his fear of big waves, and discovers through his new faith and friendships, he does have what it takes. Eventually, Austin enters the biggest surf contest in California, where the outcome of the contest may just determine the outcome of his life. Inspired by real-life events, Kids On The Wall is a beautiful and authentic coming-of-age story similar to Karate Kid andSandlot that reminds us to choose our crew wisely because they just might shape us even more than our families do.
