tripitaka 0 Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 This is quite a buzz. My mate's little boy's growing up in a big way and starting to show his skater chops like his ex-pro skater old man. Dad's getting the little guy a lot of publicity on YouTube.

Oyuki kigan 0 Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 the kid likes jumping, and one of those sets was pretty big. I wouldn't do it. Big stair sets are hot right now, and that kid will probably be doing handrails soon. The only thing is, at that age, jumping off big stuff to flat is stupid hard on growing knees (or knees of any age). I hope his Dad/filmer keeps him from ruining his little legs.

I hope his Dad/filmer keeps him from ruining his little legs. was thinking that myself Oyuki. I was wondering where all the pads are? The boy is only a wee gy, don't wanna get a bashed head or ruined knee. i tried skateboarding last year, far too painful for me to learn now, that age is definitely when ppl should learn it, no fear!!

tripitaka 0 Posted November 30, 2007 Author Share Posted November 30, 2007 Dad's into his 40s and still does bowls! I don't about the knees. Kids are pretty resilient. My knees are plugged from playing 12 years of rugby on soggy grounds. All my skater mates have help up pretty well. Link to post Share on other sites
samurai 0 Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 he's learning to fall quite well. (I mean the skill of preventing injury when falling.) I say go for it. Not all prodigies fade young. Heck, Tony Hawk kept it together. nonetheless, he's building confidence skills. Link to post Share on other sites
