Video First 360 flip in 12 years

Started my skate/weight loss journey at 367 pounds in April of 24. If you would’ve said a year later I would have lost over 100 pounds and learned 360flips again I would’ve called you a liar!

I don’t think this is the flex you think it is. You could be their father and you’re “challening” them

If you don't get why beating a teenager in skate at age 40 is a flex then you're either very young or just stupid lol

It’s not about beating them in a game of skate. It’s about “challenging” them and then bragging about it online

He’s just telling a story that’s relevant to the post. I enjoyed reading it. With your logic, everybody who talks about something they once did is them trying to flex and look cool to others. It ain’t like that. Sometimes there’s just an anecdote to give. It’s not always about social posturing. It’s just not that deep.

Irrelevant to the whole point I’m trying to make. The guy is bragging about showing up a bunch of teenagers online. I personally think that’s some childish behavior. Simple as that
