Chapter 1: Extreme Maximus Jump CHAPTER 1 Extreme Maximus Jump WHOOSH! The wind whipped past Frankie's face. She held on tightly to the handles on her red saucer sled as she flew down the snowy hill. Bump, bump, bump! She went over a patch of chunky snow that rattled her teeth and shook her brain inside her head. Her big challenge was coming up quickly. Everyone called it Extreme Maximus. Once, a fifth grader had gone off it, flown three feet in the air, and done a flip! At least, that's what people said.
