Synopsis

Set in the year 2025, Obike Fixx and Tremaine "Tre" Ramzey are the creators of Futuresport -- a dangerous, 21st-century game played on rollerblades and hoverboards that has taken the place of all conventional sports. Tre is considered the world's greatest professional athlete and master of Futuresport. Tre and Fixx created Futuresport as a constructive way to settle gang disputes, but Fixx is disgusted with how the game has become overly commercialized. When the fate of the world is threatened by militant terrorists, Tre and his former girlfriend, reporter Alex Torres, challenge the terrorists to settle their differences through one eventful game of Futuresport.
