How can you tell the prince is a great skateboarder?

Well, he is the heir apparent.

This is a joke on the front of a frube and my kids are asking me to explain. Any ideas?

‘Getting air’ is getting off the ground?

Heir... air??

Something to do with skateboarders getting air?

The joke on the other frube was ‘Why is Cinderella bad at football? Because she always runs away from the ball’.
So it doesn’t seem like it should be something really complicated.

I think the 'next big thing in skateboarding/top skateboarder' is called an 'air apparent'. Skateboarder royalty or something.

Thanks Beauty!

I just googled air apparent and there’s not many hits. A bit obscure for a frube!

@noblegiraffe "a bit obscure for a frube" really made laugh when I'm having such a crap time.

Thank you
