it's been a while since i've posted anything from the lil manimal files but i got this one last night and thought it was pretty cool.
he's learning how to hip and transfer at the skatepark. i didn't take many pics because the light in there is so crappy and my flash only illuminated the dust particles floating around :banghead:

anyway, here he is stepping it up again. he was launching off the very corner of the coping by the end of the night and landed almost 180 degrees from where he first launched on a few attempts.
:cheers:

he's 6, and VERY small for his age. in the 25% range on the growth chart :D probably the reason he loves gymnastics.

that's a 16" bike he's on in the pic. his 20" is still pretty huge for him but he manages it ;)

i didn't want to start a new thread for these two pics. new drop we found on our street after the neighbor cut down his tomatoe plants that were growing in the tranny.

it's right at head high for him where he's landing.

"oww...i hit my jimmy!" ...after a hard landing


and 2 short vid clips ( i originally uploaded to youtube but it reduced the quality too much. putfile retains quality a little better.)
