First backy i think 16 or 17...honestly haven't tried one since, now I am 24. Not sure why, i guess that "fuck it" younger mentality is fading

front flips around 10. backflips around 12 I think. Didnt have them super dialed till 16/17 though but also was the first year I had a park more than once a year.

Child tries to be funny on the internet, what happens next with you indifferent and somewhat confused.

Idk what you were going for here but you missed it pretty badly. Maybe you should take a break from the intrawebs and come back in 4 years.

Says the guy that creates a thread about growing a beard and posts a selfie. I think you would do better over on Dateline. Take a break bud, come back in 4 years and try again.

I feel like 37% of my posts involve some hip hop lyrics either directly or as a general theme.

At least you got the reference.
