My first try – what a disaster - when I got on I fell off. I really wanted to be able to ride it so I Kept trying until… finally I could do it. When I could ride it properly I felt happy. Now to learn the tricks but how do they go? Dad to the rescue and you tube video. We watched and then my dad showed me how to do three tricks. They were kick flip, Ollie and a premo flip. When I could do them I felt really happy I have been skating for 5 years but when I turned nine I got an even better skateboard. So it was off to the Mornington skate park with my brothers and dad. Joseph, my older brother, dared me to go down the blood bucket!! It’s called that because heaps of people fall off and end up bleeding when they first go down it. So when I first saw it I was too scared. I didn’t want to do it. So I went down an easy one after I did that I went down the blood bucket. There was glass at the bottom but I went down the side and went up the other side. I thought I did it but there I was going back down. Oh no! There I was at the bottom and I had hurt myself. Some of the glass that was smashed in the bottom, was stuck in my leg. Dad and I picked out the glass and put some plasters on it. One thing I will always remember it I never thought I’d do it!! But I DID!
