This girl is a rock star!!!! I was shaking for her, then she went again, landed it & hit the other jump! She will for sure conquer the world 💜
Okay,sure...why not.👈😂
@one and only Never said anything bad but sure.
I had tried 1 time
Badass! I couldn't
@Coldstrike 34 just let people have a good moment without hating
This is amazing. I am really impressed with her for doing that. Its really hard to do as well so major respect.
That's so impressive. I remember being a couple years older than her and scared likw she was to drop the 8 at the local skate park, this is on a whole different level and she crushed it what a champion
I'm watching this like "oh I remember that feeling the first time I dropped in on a (standard) vert ramp. You can do it little lady!"
Had NO IDEA it was the mega ramp WALL of vert! WHAT!! You are amazing and fearless young woman. In awe of you!
@Nicoletta Del Vecchio واش مغدوزيش
@Digital Everest well i thin we agree.... she's awesome, period! I can't even stand without falling on a skate, so i can't even Imagine what does It Means Beeing on a skate on jiant ramp. I wouls freak out 🤯😬😖😖😖😖😖😖
@Nicoletta Del Vecchio she's pretty incredibly awesome for any age or gender. I've skated for decades and still cannot wrap my brain around 2 things: giant heavy airplanes that fly and THAT GAP.
Well she's trained professional and She Is the youngest athlete, of the UK that competed in the Tokyo 2020 olimpic games, so she's pretty awesome for an 11 or 12 years old.
*the fact that I can’t even stand on a skateboard without falling*
@Justme Zoro Lost in the world of skateboard
Same 😂
Same
FRR
@LightningFrm o
It's incredible that she's such a brave child . She was anxious but she took some time to calm herself and finally we see her leap of faith . No more words to describe. Definitely the best thing I found today .
Please stop with the mushy filmy dialogues!
@big boy benny fucking legend lmao
Not to brag or anything I did the whole mega ramp in skate 3 without falling off my board
itgood
Amazing.
Sky I’ve been watching you for awhile and you are so insane!! You go girl!
Wow girl, your passion definitely shows through your bravery❤ and what better coach to have on your side!
HELL YEAH! That was awesome. My first half pipe and my first big ramp was rough. Your brain says "we got this" but the body is like "NO! ABSOLUTELY NO!" lol
Usually people are so impatient but kuddos to everyone that encouraged her 👏🏾
As a person who can’t use a skateboard on normal ground, THIS IS SO HARD AND SHE LITERALLY NAILED IT
Sorry bro, your comment got stolen by “Mr. Beast”
I'm sorry for your loss.
@GET OUT OF MY KITCHEN im helping lol, i reposted twice on accident but yeah im giving beginner tips
She is very, very brave! She conquered the ramp like a boss! I’ve always wanted to learn how to skateboard but I was never able to even balance myself for 1ft and after an unrelated knee injury I never touched w skateboard since. However, seeing Sky’s bravery sure makes me wanna try again :)
Very impressive and inspiring, GO SKY BROWN!!!
Ever since I became a mom, I cry at everything lol but damn. This had me in tears
I am 35 and that little girl has more courage than me. Good work youngn!
It's hard to tell just how high that ramp is. Honestly this was really badass, what a legend.
This is Sloan's backyard ramp and it is approx 100 feet off the ground.
Nope it’s easy for anyone with construction knowledge to see that’s 3 stories or 35 feet tall approximately. I base this off the 2 story staircase behind them that’s easily 12 feet lower than the top of that half pipe.
@Flow Innocence they can if they want to, it's RU-clip not someones house
You do realize that the smartest man on the planet used to cuss like a drunken sailor and he was the smartest guy on the planet so why can't we cuss even Stephen Hawking's Cussed
I could never do that she is so brave! YOU GO GIRL!
Bro, I'm a grown a$$ man and I almost cried seeing this commitment and dedication by this wonderful soul. 👏
Omg I can't even put into words how much I fucking loved everything about this! Goddamn that's inspiring! And Tony still killin it! 👀✌️❤️
That takes COURAGE. I couldnt ride down the pyramid at my local skatepark. Cheers to this kid doing what I couldnt do at 31 💪🏼
Tony Hawk is such a legend, he’s literally the reason Skateboarding has a mainstream presence. Plus a super cool guy and an AMAZING ambassador for the sport. You can dislike boarding but you can’t dislike Tony Hawk.
Kkkkķ kkkkk 👏👏👏👏👍👍😰😰😥😢💔
True. When I was a kid I want to be just like Tony Hawk.
👏👏👏👏👏👏😍😍😍😍😍
So true

Similar fear for me. I had a huge fear of getting speed when going off jumps on my snowboard. It took me years to build up the courage to hit a large jump
i love how they stayed quite and didnt say “cmon sky go its not that hard” and i love how they didnt say “sky cmon do it again you didnt land it” on the first try and they didnt push her to do it
I admire the braveness!! So proud I don’t even know why 😂
Brought a tear to my eye. Future fears can be overcome.
This little girls courage is off the charts. If you’ve never dropped in you can’t understand this. Great job, straight killing
I'm 3 times her age and 6 times her size, and I would be crying for my mom to save me from the heights, she's way more brave than I am. 😂
Gave me goosebumps
She knows how to drop in , it’s just her first time on a mega ramp. As a skater that knows how to drop in I tell you that shits a no no for me 🤯 atm. Kudos 💯💯✅🎥 P.S you can tell she already knows how to drop in because seconds later she’s doing x games grabs on the huge quarter pipe 😤🤘🏽
Most could do it, if we had one in our backyards, takes practice like anything. Still easier than a kick flip
I still can’t imagine jumping off 5 steps of stairs, let alone skateboard down that freaking mountain
Omg I can't even go down something half as tall as that without almost crying, AND she jumped a gap AND landed it?! 🥶
Let's just appreciate how confident and brave she is give her around of a plause
As a grown man who served in the armed forces already, watching this was intense as f. What a brave girl.
For real just thought she was just dropping in… didn’t know she was gonna do that madness… either way. Dropping in that is already super impressive. But then that grab as well… just MAD!! 🔥
I would die. I'm petrified of heights. This is killing me, how a little girl is braver than me.
Props to her!
@Green Animations nah bruh. I wouldn't have even climbed that thing up that's how petrified I am.
Sl
Same
i cant
@Selflessone
Kk
?Mkmmmmmmmmmmmķ.
And now she’s a bronze medalist at the Olympics. AMAZING
this is impressive. I can't even ride a skateboard without shaking and falling
that gave me goosebumps and chills when her front foot touched the board 😬
That girl handled it like a pro
"YOU GOT IT SKY, JUST COMMIT"
You need these kind of people around you, to support and motivate you to face your fears, chase your dreams, and beyond.
As a kid, sure.
But as an adult, we move away from parental approval and look to our friends and environment.
Millennials may have been handed a bad rap, but at some point one learns to fend for themselves. If your environment doesn’t push this you’re in the wrong place.
I’d advise getting off YT and trying everything.
This jump i awesome, i remember when they built it, I was making sick jumps on rollerblades and hitting waves at 5am. This was cuz I had no family, but I bought a board and 300$ blades
Stay real
Oh but the guy who told Kurt Cobain “You got it Kurt, just commit” is a bad guy? Smh double standards bro
@Sunny V actually it’s her little brother they’re famous in the skate world
@Stop playing send it 1
I was like yea it's easy, till I realized you still have to land accross the ramp😂
HOLY SHIT SHE DID IT!!!!!!!! I was scared for her and she actually did pretty good!!!!!! VERY IMPRESSED!!!!!!!
Dobrze ci idzie trzymaj dalej tak i więcej filmików nagrywaj
🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟 She has more guts and heart then most grown men I know. You got this Sky 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
For whoever doesn't know: this incredible young lady is Sky Brown, bronze medallist on the Tokyo Olympics in Park Skateboarding
Wow!
SKY
I c
sKy Go
I know that already but still thanks 😊
While she's 13 now, I think she was much younger in this video!
Admire her courage and bravery. This is not easy to do.
That was epic !!! Man , how old is she? She did awesome 👏
I am a grown man and that little girl is braver than I will ever be. Kudos!
Wow! Meinen größten Respekt dafür weiter so viel Glück 😊✌
The fact that these tiny kids have such brave and incredible skateboarding abilities nowadays blows my mind.
@Chris_drive fast_die smiling well Ohio is it’s own world lol
@Arzella Simmons yeah, just let them sit on their plump behinds and simulate it on a screen. That's so much better!
@Jamie Brown The Z-boys did more to make skateboarding mainstream than Tony although Tony Hawk will forever be the face of the sport. Dogtown in the 70's brought skateboards to the suburban kids like me. Tearing around our neighborhood on our plastic GTs and Huffy boards was never looked at as rebellious or disrespectful to our parents. It did keep us outside enjoying our youth like dozens of other things we did as kids. What was interesting is that in 1975, there was this huge delay between fads, styles and activities making their ways to the suburbs of Dayton Ohio, among other midwest locations, from the left and right coasts. Skateboarding moved quickly across the country because it was fun and good for you. So thankful that my generation physically rode boards, motorcycles, and explored our worlds and didn't sit in front of screens. My kids and grandchildren look at me like I'm crazy when I tell them that my 11 year old self would leave the house early, jump on my bike or board, and not come home until dark, dirty, exhausted, hungry, and sometimes a bit bloody. Imagine an eleven year old being out of contact for 12 hours today! I miss my freedom as a youngster and will forever be thankful for my skating brothers and sisters, my dirtbike buddies, my little league teams, my........
@Isnsn Cjdjw youd be surprised how few people understand this very concept.
Rule number 1: “Always and Inevitably, Intelligent individuals fail to realize just how many stupid people there are in circulation.”
@CWimn1 I hear you! That's what amazes me! The first mega ramp i saw on tv was Bob Burnquist's ramp back in the 90's. When i first saw that i thought that no normal human being could conquer it. Now we have legends like little Sky dominating it!
She did an AWESOME job
What a Rockstar it takes some serious adrenaline and will to push past natural instinct and enjoy the ride. Great job sky
Well done Sky brown!!!👏
OH MY GOD!!!!!! If that were my kid I’d be crying of joy I swear to god that would be too badass
This girl is seriously impressive. “Just gotta commit.” That’s really inspiring.
Every skater says “just commit” lol
@Legend
Me too. The second I step on a skateboard my legs shake.
She braver then me
I’m too scared to drop down from a half foot ramp my god is that amazing!
She actually did it.. I would’ve fallen first try 🤣😂😂
Bravo la petite !!! Même moi j'irais pas !!! 👏👏👏
This is the most heartwarming and viral video ever
Edit: I love this girl
This girl did something that many have a tough time doing: she committed with a leap of faith.
@Kory Manuel a
Yes she did!!!!
Yep!!
ye but what happens if she messes up and has to live the rest of her life on wheelchair with trauma?
"you just gotta go"
Great advice, thank you 😂
It's literally the only way to conquer fear.
The last time I saw this it got 70k likes
And now? 11 Mil..
It depends on who it’s coming from.
It is actually all that dropping in on this requires so ig its helpful
Ask big boy lmao
what a brilliant athlete she is a legend
I love how she said “JUST COMMIT.”
That song was definitely part of the motivation
When that song comes on, I just get motivated to do anything
name?
Having the original “the skater” Tony Hawk beside you urging you on is incredible motivation. That’s awesome
I can only imagine her nervousness. Lol. Not only facing her fear of going down the ramp but the fact TONY HAWK was there. Lol
وبوب. ب
That is sky brown she’s one of the youngest pro skaters in the world
Y0li
عاس
Bro that’s courageous of her and the dad. I will be so scared if that lil girl was my daughter. Probably will be one of these overprotective dads.
Love This! Brave little lady!
Breath taking.. U go girl!
Bro that's amazing 👏 can we just have a moment of silence for this baddie
Even as a person who doesn't know how to skateboard, it takes balls to launch from that height. Hats off!!
Start skateboarding, heres a few basic tips:
Start off holding on to something and pushing off a bit and stay balanced, bend your knees too while riding, then once ready try pushing around and get comfortable riding and I mean it because if you aren’t you will seriously get injured.
Then practice falling the right way, this sounds dumb but it actually helps.
Then learn ollie and after that keep shredding and learn whats good for you
@•★Crystalx★• yeah
@Madi Shafer no I don’t you are correct. It was a stupid comment. I apologize!
OKAY HOLD UP EVERYONE I MADE A STUPID COMMENT IM SORRY. I KNOW HE MEANT “MENTAL BALLS “ AND NOT REAL LIFE BALLS . I GOOFED IN THE WONG PLACE.
SORRY FOR MY STUPIDITY AND INSENSITIVE COMMENT!
STAY SAFE AND DRINK WATER FOR CLEAN SKIN!
I freaking liked this video a million times!
Almost teared up. Fear is the enemy.
Wow! That’s incredible 🙌🏽🙌🏽
All I have to say is wow that’s seriously blew my mind great job kid
I love how she wasn't pressured into it, just a ton of patience and support behind her and it made a difference
Jesus loves you! he died for you, he got plans for your life! remember! he will come back
She gonna be a beast
Yes it did!
Yea and i would have never done it even if i had patience.
Great job kid. I was able to see Tony skate when he was just a kid in the middle of Iowa back in the late 80's. If I remember Bone's was there too.
I love Tony wasn’t pushing her only said something after she talked! The best! Was just their for support and let her know he believed in her!
I love her name sky, I was like “oh she’s in the sky her name is perfect for her” like bruh you gotta role down that huge ramp standing up? Yeah no.
Omg your so talented and confident keep going what your doing
My anxiety level went up so high I can just see how nervous she was that was really amazing I’m glad she was a able to do it
@Chaeyoung’s_planet999 my friend son wanted to be top drug dealer but his parents put their foot down and said heck no! I doubt the girl wanted to put her life in danger but if she did it doesn't means the parents should agree.
@fairy wishes yea but sometimes it’s was their child wants to you can’t judge them based off what you see :)
@fairy wishes Its not like they just threw her on a skateboard at the top for the first time. She clearly has tons of experience for her age and loves skating.
Wow
you got this girl
You go girl♥️
Girl your going places 😍
Amazing job if this is your dream you
FOLLOW your passion stay happy and NEVER give up🥰
ALSO, keep in mind that this is approximately 100ft drop. This girl is my hero!
This is absolutely terrifying. I could never do this. She is so brave :D Her courage is so impressive
I don't know how to skate board I tired and my teeth craked
Why did you apologize in the edit
The Scaramouche pfp is everything for me Lmao
@eden ✨ I don't think so D:
Literally sad
And I can't even drop in a 2-3ft ramp 😭
A gente deve ultrapassar os medos
Damn she's really good I'd be crying 😭 do hard 😂😂😊
U are a legend sky u have a gift
That kid has more courage than most adults, myself included.
She is going to be a force to be reckoned with when she gets older. ❤️
@Emmett Brown ok so she is popular and she did it at the age of 14 and the guy above saying he did this at the age of 10(just saying).
She already is an inspiration last year she won the Olympics for woman’s park skating at the age of 13
@K H 3 O Z ok say
@Chuxkko bro he is madara wdym
@Zizo Zizo umm its ok u don’t want to post personal video but then everyone can say they have done it.
I never be tired to see videos like this, push to the limits, people are awesome 👏👏👏👏
This was beautiful!
Proud of this girl and never give up
I can’t even jump in a pool without second guessing and I know how to swim. I could never do this 💀
*This little girls courage is off the charts. If you've never dropped in you can't understand this. Great job, straight killing*
Copied comment smh
Uruuririrurjtj
Dropping in on a 10-footer scares me every time. I could not imagine this
@Lewis 94 haha
I’m proud of her that scared me more 😂❤️
Bravo je te félicite j’espère que tu vas aller plus loin que ça
This is such a inspiring video, what this 7 year old girl can do is impressive coz if I tried I would broken legs coz in would have fallen down
That was amazing good job😊
People don’t understand how hard that shit is my lord that is beyond Impressive
It’s not rly that hard, it’s just intimidating
Above
Jeez swear much
Language
She will be the next Tony Hawk. The fact that her name is Sky make this more perfect. Can't wait to see in the next 10 Years there would be a tag "Sky Rock the Vegas"
I wouldve already passed out seeing how deep it goes
GO SKY! looks scary, so happy for her!
respect the courage
