Video: Lad in Waterford skatepark absolutely face plants while attempting flip

This looks very painful

Needless to say, do not try this at home…

One poor soul in Waterford City People’s Park had a nasty run in with a skatepark today when he attempted to land an audacious flip on a scooter.

Unfortunately, he got his speed or his timings off and ended up landing heavily on the hard concrete.

Thankfully, according to JOE reader Darragh Coleman, he got straight up off the ground and nailed the manoeuvre the next time round.

What a trooper..
