12-Year-Old Prodigy Lands Skateboarding’s First 1080 | Athletes | OutsideOnline.com: Twelve-year old Tom Schaar has been skating since he was four, but only started attempting the 1080 a couple weeks ago. The Malibu-based prodigy made four attempts on March 26—and nailed it on his fifth try, landing three complete mid-air rotations off a 70-foot tall mega ramp at Woodward West, an action-sports camp in Tehachapi and becoming the first skateboarder in history to stick the sport’s most elusive trick.
