Skate like a (12 year old) Girl

I’m recalling the scene in the Bones Brigade documentary where Lance Mountain recalls being livid about the process of learning McTwists. If you haven’t seen the documentary, it’s one of the more interesting bits. Well that was decades ago, and I’m sure Lance isn’t bitter about it anymore. How about Alana Smith landing a solid 540 McTwist at age 12? That’s awesome. McGill himself was present when she stuck it, even offered her a little advice. Check out Alana’s sponsor Hoopla Skateboards. Video after the jump.
