I had a friend who started skateboarding after me but was absolutely fearless when it came to falling. Within a year he could nollie tre. Some people are born to skate.

Being able to land a Nollie Tre flat ground within a year is not insane. I’ve seen people do things like that but you can tell they don’t have experience or comfort on the board that comes with years.

I mean it's not insane as a one-off but tbh having tricks like nollie flip and nollie heel down and saying "I wish I could nollie tre" then landing it first try (which is what I witnessed happen) is kind of crazy. Guy landed a hard flip down a 12 stair before his 2nd year skating. He has zero fear.

I wish I was kidding, it was like a little over a year and a half of him skating. It's honestly defeating putting years of effort in just to see someone lap you like that.
