    this video literally made me cry, 1 because rick g looks like my grandfather who passed about two years ago and 2 because i felt his emotion when he landed that kickflip. i cant skate any more but boy do i miss that pushing around hanging with friends and learning new things together.
    long live braille!!!!!!!!

So I'm very fortunate to have this opportunity. But my family hated it and kept telling me I am too old for the x games. I'm 38. So I just sent them this video to them. Thank you!
