According to him, the handstand was a great success, it was merely the landing that went awry. Typical.

Kudos to your dad for the handstand. That In Itself, takes some effort on a board.

I'm lucky If I can stand on a board, let alone ride one or attempt any tricks.

I should say, he was also a gymnast, so he had advantages with the balance side of things.

It's a marvel these people don't break their legs more often.

Well that In Itself, would've been of big help with the hand stand performed.

Sounds like your dad's pretty cool and up with the times. No doubt both of you would have a lot of fun together, which Is an awesome family relationship.
EDIT: Typo.

They don't include footage of that in their pro videos. That doesn't mean it doesn't happen.

To be honest, he's just a big kid so you're not wrong there! He came to see Oni for the first time a while ago and we just had a go on his airsoft guns. Such a chill bloke xD

Sounds like more of a best mate to you, rather than solely a father.

Now that's something special and Is not a commonality In many families.

This is very true actually - I'm one of the lucky few!
