Damn that was crazy, I wish I could do that, better grab me some red bull I guess raspberry

I agree there is so much talent coming out of the UK, but honestly I think that’s just because kids all over the world are ridiculously good, It’s not just the UK.
I remember being on a trip to NZ a few years back and the terrain park was under the chair lift, biggest kicker was only like 40 ft, and there was a junior competition being run, almost everyone was throwing down cork 720’s or bigger, and that was I think 14-16 year olds. and generally you don’t throw your biggest tricks in competitions because you want it to be clean etc…
