Wipeout (Hardy Boys Mystery Stories #96)

Synopsis

From the back of the book: MEDITERRANEAN MAYHEM AND MYSTERY! Frank and Joe are in the south of France for the famous Almanarre Cup windsurfing championship. They're investigating a strange series of "accidents" that threaten to put champion windsurfer Doug Newman out of the competition... and into serious danger! While looking into the case of the sabotaged surfer, the Hardys stumble on to a load of counterfeit cash. The criminal waters run deep, and the stakes are much higher than the boys first believed. Confronting attackers from the sea and the air, Frank and Joe discover that if they are going to make waves, they had better be prepared for a fight-or a WIPEOUT! =============== From inside the book: Wipeout Doug tacked, then aimed his board directly at an incoming roller. Suddenly he was upside down in midair. The bottom of his board was reaching for the sky, and the tip of his mast was aimed at the wave. A forward roll, one of the toughest maneuvers in boardsailing! Frank was about to shout congratulations when Doug's mast seemed to come loose at the base. The loss of support threw Doug completely off balance. A second wave caught the tip of Doug's sail. The mast seesawed wildly. Suddenly it cracked Doug across the forehead, and the board landed upside down in the surging water. Joe stared, horror-struck. "His feet," he shouted to Frank. "They're caught in the foot straps! He's sure to drown!"
