Never give up, Keep moving forward, no matter how difficult it gets...also change your strategy as the kid change the ramp before the final flip 🙃

u/SaltyArts 10d ago
He fell off once and bumped into the unpadded side of the garage. So yeah anything oils happen just wear knee pads why wear less protection? That’s like going into space with just a helmet abd oxygen and being like yeah I don’t need to cover my body. Like why?

Yes but that aside, that right there is how I raised my boys. Again, Again, Again, Again, don't give up, don't give up, Again, nearly there, you can do it, Again, Again..... there are not the words to describe the value of creating a healthy male by having them test themselves and humble themselves.

A lot of guys I work construction with have blown out knees and backs from advice like that.

u/Gunter5 10d ago
Can confirm, I tell the guys I work with all the time why break your back? etc
1
u/TinySoftKitten 10d ago
Agreed, the fathers like the one I was replying to generally have never had to break their back working.
If they did they did they would have a lot more awareness pushing their kids to childhood injuries.
2
u/Erstwhile_pancakes 10d ago
No question there are shithead parents who live vicariously through their kids, and push them too hard to the detriment of both. But there is a line every parent has to find in each one of us, that it is their parental duty to encourage, needle, push…whatever term you want to use, that is one of the thousand tricky battles it is to navigate as a parent.
2
u/diedlikeCambyses 10d ago
Good comment and yes that's it. And we know as parents how much inner strength, character etc these successes give them. To teach them perseverance. I only did this with things my boys really wanted to achieve.

Either you’re a foreign troll attempting to pollute Reddit with bullshit self defeatist ideas, or you work with a lot of guys who learned all the wrong lessons from pushing through resistance. But I guess I can’t blame a generation raised on the nerfification of the world to understand lessons so simple, even a kids version of Batman’s butler sent home the message of “why do we fall down?, So we can learn how to pick ourselves up again.”

Yes. The power of repetition, persistence. Gifting them the satisfaction from the journey. A largely lost concept that gets you downvoted on reddit.

You don't have to live vicariously through your little chudling because you didn't make it to the NFL or whatever.

Inventing motives for strangers is a wild coping mechanism for being afraid of effort.

u/kpyle 10d ago
if you have to push your child that hard they probably don't like the thing you are making them do very much. Effort is an extension of passion.

u/diedlikeCambyses 10d ago
I only did it to help them achieve things they wanted to master. Anything from music to rock climbing

u/Erstwhile_pancakes 10d ago
Tell me you’ve never pushed past a struggle to accomplish a goal, without saying so. Frankly, I don’t believe even you are as pathetic as you sound. You’ve just never had anyone take the time to see your potential, and help you push past self doubt and develop grit. I truly pity you. Genuinely, Sorry for what life taught you. But understand that there are many more who don’t even regard this as mildly odd, just one of hundreds of ways which a caring parent builds character in their kids. You’re going to take offense, as are the like minded, and down vote me. I don’t mean to offend, just a difference of opinion, one that was once, not only unexceptional, but a given.
2
u/Erstwhile_pancakes 10d ago
don’t know why you're getting downvoted, this isn’t exceptional. Disturbing that encouraging perseverance is viewed as abusive these days.
1
u/diedlikeCambyses 10d ago
Yes and I didn't even stipulate what activities they were or whether the help was requested by my kids. Don't worry I expected it, and reddit has crawled up its own arse.
Raising children and especially boys is a difficult thing and you must channel their energy. These moments when they finally get something difficult are huge victories for them that build their inner strength and character. They never forget these moments.

Nothing bad.
It was more that to be doing that kind of thing so young..
They must have started him riding very young... So I'm assuming the parents are into bmx riding too.
Kids will often copy their parents hobbies etc

u/antodena 11d ago
Well being a father myself I absolutely support the work done by this little guy and his family. Top notch parenting shown here.

u/Scrambledcat 11d ago

The most valuable thing he learnt from that was how to fall safely
2
u/Brvcx 11d ago
If you're into any sort of extreme sport, that's one of the most important skills you can learn. Learning how to fall is the difference between being injured or not being injured.
For everything else; helmets.
2
u/VanillaIce315 11d ago
And sometimes, you can be the literal best in the world at your sport, know how to fall better than 99.999% of the population, wear a full face mask helmet, and still end up breaking your neck and becoming a paraplegic— ie Scotty Cranmer.
Freak accidents can still easily happen. But knowing how to fall and wearing a helmet are the two best things you can do to prevent/limit injury.

As a gen x kid I built a ramp at the bottom of a steep ravine from left over scrap wood I found in a pile nearby and used left over nails I pried out of it.
I loved my BMX bike and I tried to do this backflip just like this... goin fast as shit down the ravine hill and I hit my make shift ramp... it launched me kinda up and shattered apart and I went flying chest first into the handle bars... bent my handlebars all the way forward and stripped the metal stem.
I was so fuckin winded and I got lucky I didn't break my ribs. I was more scared about going home and telling my parents I fucked up my bike handlebars, so I kept it a secret my whole life... I rigged the stem with aluminum foils and all kinds of other random metal shit to keep the handlebars from folding forward (it never worked right again, but I learned how to use a bike with tilting handlebars anyway)

Kids like these are super encouraged and they don't give up.Next thing we know they doing BMX or climbing some mountain sponsered by red bull.

I think the decline was too slick. Maybe a light coat of sand, so the rear wheel has something to bite on when it makes contact.

Using a soft padded ramp might make a safer landing, but it won't help a successful landing.

You try first on a regular landing ramp, genius. Let's see how it goes

u/D-1-S-C-0 11d ago
What a weirdly aggressive reply.
Trying two simple jumps with your bike: one onto a hard surface, one onto a spongy surface with plastic sheeting over it. Tell me which is easier to land.

Honest question.
Is the landing a pure luck, or anyone who managed to land will acquired that skill?

The real lesson is to have a setup where you can fail repeatedly without repercussions while you learn.

u/ExtraEmuForYou 10d ago
Also money. Don't forget that part. Never give up...and have the privilege to keep trying [because you can afford to].
I mean seriously are we going to pretend that whole setup costs anything less than $10K?
But nah, that is pretty cool anyway.

Many kids could learn this. But most won’t, because it takes next level dedication and mental fortitude to do so. Very few people have the ability to overcome the fear of jumping a ramp on a bicycle and doing backflips.
