i dont get why people make such a big deal about age. honestly i wouldnt care if this kid was 9, id still judge his riding the same way i would to someone who is 16. Im 13 and i never include my age in any of my videos. Also the reason he has the sick tricks on lock is probably because he has a local and can get them dialed. If this kid were to live around me, where there are no parks that are public, he wouldnt be able to do 3/4 of the shit hes doing. anyways, i loved the bartwist late bar and the 540 bar to fakie. Decade over the spine was sexxxxyyyyyyy

Because you get better the more you ride. And the older you get, the more muscle, experience... etc.

For example, I'll use motocross (it's my background). I am over 20, and been racing for a few years now. There isn't a 12 year old ON EARTH that could probably beat me on a track.

Same with most sports..., a child simply isn't as strong or coordinated as a later teen or adult. Energetic? lol. Probably. But it's just physics.

I see what your saying but im currently thirteen. In person i look as if im 16 or 15ish. Im guessing maybe size would matter cuz i prob have more muscle and body mass than a bunch of 15 year olds i know. experience i think wouldnt tie into it because i have been riding as long as a very close friend (we actually started out riding togethere), and he hasnt acceled as much as i have. the point i tried to make across is that people shouldnt use age as a defense if someone says they suck or using it if someone complements them.

somtimes i think age does matter because it can show who stands out in each age group i think on some things ppl make it to big of a deal but today at my local park i was watching one of the bikers (kids 11) he can almost back flip he 720 and clean ass 540 and rides with all the good riders also he gets on a scooter and triples spines i saw him when he was like 9 quad it it just shows in his age he is good and also u can use the age to determine where they will be in a few years but anyways sick video this kid is gonna be legit just watch

Age is just when you start.
If you're good at 12, chances are you'll either burn out, or be really good by the time you're 16.
The more good 12 year olds we have, the better the sport is going to be in 4-5 years time.

off topic: im 12 but why does it seem like every 12 year old that makes a vid is like 4 ft tall? im 5foot 1inch and im pretty short compared to kids my age at my school.

on topic: this kid is gonna shred soooo hard soon, and he shreds hard now.
