I am so grateful for any support you choose to give, financial or emotional! 🙏 I wanted to see how long it would take to learn a particular skill with deliberate practice. I chose skateboarding and set the milestone at a kickflip. I recorded every second of learning and made this video. It took me 5 hours and 47 minutes to land one.

Learn to ollie with a Walmart board and running shoes. Respect.
-
he learned how to ollie by himself, on a walmart board, with running shoes, in under 10 mins, what a legend
-
He definitely didn’t mean this video to be taken this way but he definitely just made a mockery of skateboarding for 6 min
-
In 5hours his already become a better skater than me.
-
running shoes + Walmart board = Ollie in 10 mins
-
Him: learns Ollie in 7 minutes Me: still can’t rlly do one after 4 months

Hey Mike. I'm 41 and after being inspired by this video, and after a 25 year break, today I landed my first ever kickflip. 2 months of work in the garden and amazingly messy but I landed it today. Thanks for the inspiration x
-
He definitely watched some Aaron Kyro tutorials
-
The cat is a metaphor of scooter kids at the skatepark
-
Everyone learns a Ollie in like a month: omggg i landed it finally!! Mike lands a Ollie in 10 minutes: yes.
-
When it took him 11 minutes to Ollie higher than I did in a month
-
First Ollie in 9 minutes... i hate and love you at the same time
-
Neighbor : “Can You Ride a sKateboard?” Mike : “Niiii, But i can kickflip..”
-
I love how with you you don’t just leave it after you landed it you actually keep on doing it to nail it down.

Wow, this video is almost 5 years old, I remember watching it, when I too was learning skating, and you had like 5 videos, and thought to myself, he really needs to make more of this kind of videos. Thanks to you I learned to solve the Rubik's cube, 5x5 cube blindfolded, throwing knifes, axes, and cards, programming, and playing guitar. Your videos are such a good motivation. Thanks. Edit:spelling

best wife ever.. he hurts his balls and she instantly comes to help
