Often times most athletes should stick to what they know best.  Their transition into a different sport can hinder the development of their careers.  Just look at Jordan going into baseball.  He could have easily won at least one more championship.  Or in the case of Oscar De La Hoya.  His singing career went nowhere. But sometimes in a rare occasion, some athletes find out that they have the natural ability to make that transition into an alternative sport.

Just look at the case of Bob Burnquist surfer friend Valter Vale from Brazil.  Shred Or Die has a magnificent video featuring the surfer taking on the Mega Ramp that Bob built.  What you are about to see is an amazing display of a natural ability to ride a skateboard.  What you are about to see would take months before other skaters grew the balls and the skills to pull off what he did. All the other Mega Ramp skaters are fortunate that Valter won’t take up skateboarding full time otherwise he would be taking home all the X Games medals.  The dude at end of the video floored by the performance is Bob.  Check it!
