When Brink discovers his family is in financial trouble, he decides to go over to the dark side of skating and joins Team X-Bladz. Only after realizing that this transformation was a poor decision, he forgoes his financial problems and makes do by getting a job at a local dog grooming shop, "Pup 'N Suds".
