Welcome to the wild, wonderful, potato-tastic state of Idaho! In this gem of a state that's shaped like a grinning dragon's profile, the kids are as adventurous as they come. Famed for its lush forests, roaring rivers, and those world-famous potatoes, Idaho is also the home of a group of kids who are superheroes in training. Their secret weapon? Kobudo, a traditional Okinawan martial art! Meet spud-tacular Sam, Idaho's potato-loving Kobudo kid. With his wild hair as unruly as a stampede of wild mustangs, and freckles that dance across his face like potatoes in a sack race, he's quite a sight. He's so skinny; he can hide behind a javelin, and when he runs, he's faster than a coyote with its tail on fire! Sam is the leader of the Idaho Kobudo Kids, a friendly gang of potato-powered martial art maestros. Every day, after school, you'll find Sam and his buddies in the potato fields, perfecting their Kobudo moves among the Idaho spuds. Using a variety of weapons, like the 'nunchaku' (that they lovingly call 'potato mashers') and 'bo' (affectionately known as 'spud sticks'), they practice their skills. They twirl, leap and spin, looking like a bunch of potato ninjas in the sunset. The kids in Idaho are not only about potato farming, you see. They're the mighty Kobudo Kids, mastering an ancient art while having barrels of fun among their beloved potato fields. So, if you're ever passing through Idaho and see a whirlwind of freckles, skinny legs, and flying potatoes, you'll know you've found Sam and his Kobudo Kids, the most potato-tastic martial artists in the West!
