    Ahhh, I could feel myself leaning further forward with every attempt thinking "go on go on land it this time!" and then you landed it and I got so excited for you :) I really enjoyed the kickflip video and the unicycle video, and this video was brilliant too. Great work for a great cause.

      it is if u learn while rolling... it's a different mindset if you're a skater trainer kid or someone who practices more indoors on carpet than actually skating around... I learned to Ollie moving out of necessity to get up curbs and whatnot and from there everything was easier rolling.. but i know kids who can do some insane flat ground shit but can't kickflip a gap
