So Ray has a plan. His new line, The Rocket 2001 Line, will save the shop - if only kids new about it. With business down, he has no money for advertising. Sno-Mart, Rocket Boards' competitor, knows that Ray might have to close so they put in an off on the business. With the situation seeming hopeless, the kids (Otto Rocket, Reggie Rocket, Sam Dullard, and Twister Rodriguez) have decided that they should help. There's only one way to keep the shop open. Conroy Blanc, an ex-pro boarder, suggests the kids use the new Rocket 2001 Boards and enter all of the upcoming competitions. Take control of Team Rocket in the fight to save the Rocket Board shop. You'll have to beat the best of the competition... including Sno-Mart! ~ Taken from Rocket Power: Team Rocket Rescue instruction manuel. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ | | | Controls | |_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _| Up ..................................

You know, in touch with nature, being one with it and all when he's doing something extreme. Stuff like that. He's gifted, stubborn, charismatic and the self-appointed, brazen Rocket Power gang leader. Otto's also totally obsessed with sports. Any kind, as long as it's fast and perilous! And that can be a real problem. Because of his total devotion to the relentless pursuit of athletic perfection. Otto tends to forget just about everything else, making him sometimes unreliable. Okay, most times! _______________ / Reggie Rocket _______________________________________________________ Reggie is Otto's 11-year-old sister. She's strong, smart, a star athlete and a leader and crusader for the underdog. She publishes her own zine that covers everything from extreme sports (natch!) to 'kid politics.' She really is the ultimate gil action hero, never turning down a challenge from the boys, and always keepin' up. Reggie is often the voice of reason in the gang. _____________________________ / Maurice "Twister" Rodriguez _________________________________________ Twister is a daredevil filmaker-type who never leaves home without his handheld videocam. In fact, he's been known to get a little to close with the camera, nearly blocking Otto's view of the finish line during a race! Even though his older brother Lars can be Otto's fiercest competitor, Twister and Otto are best friends, behind each other all the way. And Twister's got the film footage to prove it! _____________________ / Sam "Squid" Dullard _________________________________________________ Every group of daredevils needs that one voice of reason. And Sam is it for the Rocket Power gang. He's smart, questioning, and a loyal techno whiz kid from Kansas who's new to Ocean Shores. Sam's a bit more cautious (think SCARED!) than the rest of the kids, and since he always voices his fears, he helps to keep the group more grounded by making them think before they launch! ____________ / Ray Rocket __________________________________________________________ Ray Rocket is the father of Otto and Reggie Rocket. He is the owner of Rocket Boards and the Shore Shack. You have to help Ray save Rocket Boards. Sno-Mart has already given him an offer for the store, but he won't sell. ______________ / Tito Tiakani ________________________________________________________ Tito is Ray Rocket's best friend. He works for Ray at the Shore Shack. Tito is from Hawaii. He is also one of the best surfers in Ocean Shores. ________________ / Lars Rodriguez ______________________________________________________ Lars is Twister's older brother. Lars and his gang always picks on Otto, Reggie, Twister, and the Squid. He's good at all extreme sports. Also, he's Otto's toughest competition. NOTE: Descriptions for Otto Rocket, Reggie Rocket, Maurice Rodrigues, and Sam Dullard were taken from the instruction manuel. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ | | | Moves & Items | |_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _| _______ / Moves _______________________________________________________________ NOTE: Grinds are worth different amounts of points.
