This is the story of six year old Quincy Symonds, Australian surf/skate phenom,  affectionately known as The Flying Squirrel. “She has no fear,” offers Quincy’s coach Anthony Pope. “And she just doesn’t fall off. She has incredible balance and her ability to judge the conditions and adjust is at a level I’ve never seen in someone her age.”  This is especially impressive considering Quincy has been dealing with a serious medical condition her whole life.

I’m now a fan and I bet you will be too.
