He skates. He boards. He's more fun than a barrel of monkeys. He's Jack, a sign language-adept chimp who escapes from a research lab in MVP Most Valuable Primate (Side A). Befriended by two hockey-loving teens, the gifted ape soon becomes a member of their team and, along the way, helps his pals find the courage to become champions. Next, Jack shows he has an ape-titude for skateboarding in MVP 2 Most Vertical Primate (Side B). Unexpected events separate the chimp from his friends in a strange city. But a shy skateboarder named Ben helps him and soon, it's monkey see, monkey do: Jack is cutting loose, getting radical and grinding. Things don't stop there. Because when Jack's around, you know things are going to get hairy! (official distributor synopsis)
