A while back I made a video documenting my process of learning to kickflip a skateboard. Someone got in touch asking me to help them raise funds for a Muscular Dystrophy charity but I missed the email and they never reached their target. This just didn't feel right.

I contacted skateboarding legend Tony Hawk and asked for his help to rectify the situation, and he challenged me to learn to heelflip to raise funds for Muscular Dystrophy UK.

I made a video of my progress. If you enjoyed the video and have some spare cash that you'd like to see go to good use, consider donating. The funds raised go towards helping families whose lives' have been impacted by muscle wasting conditions.
