In particular the domestic, social, educational and personal factors that fuse together to develop within him 'divine unconscious shadows' that act to drive him on an unconsciously driven search for place, purpose, escapism and meaning in his life. Ultimately, these unconsciously drive him to become a skateboarder. Once he stumbles across skateboarding byway of a misfit skateboarder at school named Gutsy, his life is dramatically turned upside down as he becomes addicted to the activity and culture and all that goes with it a path full of excitement, humour, trauma, brotherhood and much more! Such is the power of our skateboarders 'divine unconscious shadows' that he channels them through skateboarding and is emotionally addicted to the activity and cannot see any end to being a skateboarder.
