and I was doing like a lot of PT
10
and getting back into it
11
and then I went on my first trip at like 10 months from injury
12
and I felt like confident at skate parks and stuff
13
but not like really like outside of them
14
and then yeah I just sort of went on this trip
15
that I wasn't really planned to like go on yeah I guess I just got excited

that it was pretty like soul crushing for sure
24
i mean it's a love -hate relationship to be honest
25
i guess i was like pretty uneducated with like what you have to do with like a torn ACL
26
and it's like I don't know some people that don't really know that
27
or know what's going on like this is like my my
28
nine to five like this is like my day job
29
and it has been for like the last year but yeah
30
and then I pretty much just do like a couple a couple rounds of
31
that fuck you gotta like want it every day because like
32
if you're over it
33
and you come to the gym like you gotta like you gotta be hungry for it every day
34
which hard because like some days you're so over it and off it.
35
I don't know, I hate being in here.
36
Like I hate, I don't want to be surrounded by gym bros and jocks every day,
37
like it's shit but I just have to come here and do what I got to do.
38
It's like, I hate it.
39
around this uh sydney opera house
40
and the harbour bridge there's new year's every year there's just like fireworks all around like the bridge
41
and the opera house i was like oh i was like i just wanted to make something colorful
42
but i was like maybe i could make the opera house i would just go
43
and get like tiles from like different places i was like this factory in like bushwick
44
and then i went and bought like the blue tiles from like this lady in like Yonkers
45
and then sort of outline with a pencil where I'd want to go
46
and then just you sort of get the broken pieces
47
and then like place them and I think
48
that was like the bit
49
I really enjoyed where I was just like a sort of
50
like you're just like a kid like making like puzzles again like in preschool or some shit
51
yeah when I first moved to America my mom like my mom like sent me this
52
which was like I mean she sent me like all this other stuff
53
but she just she just made this mug for me from like the night I turned pro
54
and then like put all my thrasher covers on it
55
but it's just like real like pixelated pics from like Google
56
or some shit it's real funny I definitely wouldn't be where I am today
57
if it wasn't like for my parents yeah it was like
58
so supportive like when I first started skating
59
and I don't know I started playing like rugby league from when I was five until when I was seven
60
My cousin and his stepdad would always go to this indoor skate park every Thursday night.
61
And I skated a couple times but because I played rugby league, I thought it was really fun.
62
And then they would go over Thursday night and be like, you want to go again?
63
I just told my dad when we were coming back, I was just like, I don't really like this anymore.
64
I was like, I want to skate.
65
Because I couldn't do both, you know?
66
Pulled me out of rugby league and then instead of taking me to the footy field, that would just like take me to the skate park.
67
My first sponsor was like pig wheels and ruckus trucks
68
so I like we made like this little like street part for them
69
when I was like 14 and then that got posted on Slam magazine website
70
which is like an Australian skate magazine saw like a message
71
it said like Chris Middlebrook wants to send you a message on Facebook
72
and I was like who the fuck's Chris Middlebrook
73
I just saw your video on Slam magazine like oh
74
I work with Nike I want to like give you some shoes like here's my number
75
and then I just showed my dad and we were like, we were just like, what?
76
And then we like called him like together.
77
I mean, I think when you just like, don't know anything about skating and then you don't really like understand like how it works
78
or like how like people make like a career of it.
79
And like when you're like a kid and you know, I'm like the youngest of four siblings and then like, everyone's like, what?
80
Like they're Nike sending like
81
Jack shoes for free.
82
Like what?
83
Dude.
84
You're all good.
85
You have to crack it first.
86
Oh, he's great.
87
Drinking age in Australia is 18 and I was 17
88
so I used like a fake ID to like get into the pub.
89
It was like the after party after the premiere
90
but then I guess like I didn't know but then upstairs they just like, they made me like a big cake
91
and then like they had like this like passport robe and stuff and everyone like surprised me and they're like,
92
oh like welcome to the team but i think like it was funny
93
because i never got asked you know what i mean
94
but george knew what i wanted to do but
95
that i just like walked upstairs like this cake
96
and then there was just like all my friends are there and stuff and my parents and it was sick
97
i feel like this is a nice backdrop with all the graph and the bull
98
slowly started skating again and i'm not there yet i'm like yeah i wouldn't say i'm a hundred 100%.
99
Yeah.
100
But yeah, I'm definitely like getting there.
101
I would just say just like, yeah, just like listen to your body and just like feel it out
102
and like just don't put pressure on yourself and you're like coming back.
103
But yeah, I guess like with injuries, like people like, oh, you're going to change the way you skate.
104
Maybe you got to like tone it down.
105
That bummed me out a lot because I was like, if I don't, if I can't skate the way I want to skate,
106
then like, I don't really want to skate.
107
Like that's what I was like thinking.
108
Yeah.
109
I don't know, just remember that the human body heals over time and it's only a period of time.
110
So just keep ticking away at it and don't be too hard on yourself.
111
I feel like skaters are naturally really hard on themselves.
112
Fucking come on!
113
Fuck!
114
Fuck not bad guys.
115
I guess I'm just going to go back to Australia in a little
116
while and I'm just looking forward to like yeah just being in Oz going swimming and just like hanging out and stuff.
117
It'll be nice.
118
Be good to talk shit with my mates.
119
Unfortunately I lost a very close friend of mine back in Sydney, someone I grew up with.
120
And he passed away probably just less than a month before tearing my ACL.
121
So it was a lot of emotions.
122
I was like dealing with the injury then getting through it
123
and being like alright I can skate again
124
and then my really close friend like passing away
125
and there was all this sort of stuff going on everyone was like grieving
126
and then I was like okay I'll go on this trip with all my friends
127
we're gonna all sort of like grieve together
128
and like you know skate for him and dealing with that
129
and then to get hurt again I was just
130
it was just like a very like scary like mind place to like being
131
and i couldn't even like and imagine like where he was
132
or like how he felt and that
133
that was like i think i don't know
134
it was just like a real like wake -up call
135
i was just like fuck like i almost gotta like you know like live for
136
that person in the way because like although
137
that i'm like in like a crazy place right
138
now it's like i can you know i i have to like do these things
139
because like he can't you know what i mean
140
so it was like it was a it was a motivation for me
141
i am like lucky to like be here
142
and like even like you know just like yeah just talk to my family
143
and like tell them that that i love them
144
and like you know i'm i'm able to like do that which is like a blessing for sure.
145
No, front block wouldn't work on that, bro.
146
Taking it.
147
You know, when I get older and I can't skate the way I want to skate,
148
it's like that transition I feel like is going to be a lot easier for me now.
149
There's way more to life than skating.
150
And it's a really beautiful thing to realise that.
151
Because when you don't have something like this happen, it's hard for you to see that.
152
Because I felt so removed from skating for a long time.
153
For the first time in my life, I felt like just a normal pedestrian going. and getting a coffee.
154
And when you're like going through it, like you don't really believe it and it's hard to believe,
155
but like you're gonna skate again and you're gonna be 100%, you're gonna be fine.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
