Cloud 9

In Summit Valley, Kayla Morgan begins training to win the Fire and Ice competition with her boyfriend Nick Swift. They train under team coach Sebastian Swift and push each other toward the top. The looming shadow of former star Will Cloud's legacy hangs over them.

Will Cloud's viral video of Cloud 9 ends his competitive career, forcing him into retirement. He takes a job at his family's dog kennel and steps away from the spotlight. The absence of Will's mentorship is felt by Kayla and Nick as they prepare.

Nick and his friends steal Will's sled and persuade Kayla to ride it with Nick. The sled loses control; Nick jumps off, leaving Kayla to crash into a mountain lodge sign. The crash destroys the sled and the sign, ending Kayla's chances that season.

Expelled from the team, Kayla is forced to work at Will's kennel until she can replace the sled. Her dreams of Fire and Ice are put on hold as she faces the consequences of the accident. She must prove herself all over again.

Kayla confronts Nick about his lack of accountability. He admits she isn't good enough to win, and their relationship ends as he blames her for distracting him from the competition. The breakup leaves Kayla more determined to prove herself.

Kayla offers to remodel Will's kennel in exchange for training, but Will refuses at first. Undeterred, she teams up with Will's old teammates to form the Hot Doggers, hoping to compete under the Cloud family name. They discover the Swift coaching team has replaced her with Skye Sailor.

Will eventually agrees to train Kayla. Under his guidance, her skills improve rapidly, and Nick grows more jealous of their growing friendship. The team begins to show real progress.

Will's mother is impressed by the remodeled kennel and Kayla's renewed passion for snowboarding, and she grants the pair a day off. While out with Will, Kayla asks him to join the Hot Doggers, offering to continue remodeling the kennel in exchange.

The next morning, Kayla overhears her father Richard worrying that she might lose to the Swifts. His concern strengthens her resolve to beat them and prove him wrong. Her determination grows ahead of the competition.

Kayla asks Will to teach her the Cloud 9, but he says she isn't ready. She secretly climbs Tyson's Peak by helicopter and snowboards down, which is broadcast on TV. A controllable avalanche buries her, but Will comes to her rescue and she confesses she only descended to impress him.

After the rescue, Will finally agrees to teach Kayla the Cloud 9. They begin training in earnest, though there are still early misfires and concerns from Nick about safety. The professional tension between them begins to melt into mutual respect.

An argument about obsession erupts, ending with a kiss between Kayla and Will. Sebastian learns about Kayla's progress and invites her to rejoin the Swifts, which she accepts. The relationship shifts as she weighs her loyalties.

Right before the competition, Kayla re-joins the Hot Doggers, aligning with Will and the team. She remains determined to beat the Swifts on competition day.

On Run 2, Nick's victory and Skye Sailor's strong showing raise the bar for Kayla. She knows she must deliver a near perfect run to have any chance of winning.

Kayla lands the Cloud 9 for a perfect score from all judges, sealing victory for the Hot Doggers. Sebastian applauds her, regretful for having removed her earlier from the team, while the team celebrates their hard won success.
