Animated title card: LENS on Life.

Harry Quantel, host

"Video jumps? Negative 720 bigspins? Bonzo backslides? If these phrases mean nothing to you, then you've never met the new jump jockeys who'll do anything for a thrill, including pushing themselves to new heights.

Let's take a look over the underground where the kids are getting higher than ever."

He leans on a model of Planet Blip with a magnifying glass.

A card saying "A LOOK AT SPROINGING" appears.

Elbo Ivers, sproinger

"It really is dangerous. We've been doing it for so long that it looks easy, but it's not. I basically made up these moves. I mea, it's a combination of a few different jumps and then some style tricks I picked up from Birdie. And the shoes help a lot too."

Closeup on the special shoes Elbo is using to sproing.

"Mostly you just learn how to sproing when you hang out at the Fruit Bowl long enough. That's where we all hang out. This is nothing. You ought to see how much air some sproingers are getting at the Bowl."

He puts on sunglasses and sproings out of the frame.

We then see Elbo sproinging across the screen above Harry Quantel.

"See you later, Elbo!"

Elbo waves back to him right before the program cuts off.
