Autumn stated that when she is older, she wants to perform at the Olympics and also go professional in skateboarding.

The mother added:

"I think she is aiming for the Olympics in 2031, nut she is also four so it could go absolutely anywhere. I couldn’t be any prouder of Autumn. She is amazing. She’s actually quite an inspiration to me with how brave and how confident and how determined she is with what she does.”

Girls can be brave

Speaking on the different type of spins she does, the four-year-old girl said that loves ollies, carving, dropping in and tail stalls.

The mother sometimes gets nervous whenever her daughter is practising a trick and falls. Smale said her daughter has shown that girls could also be very brave.

Another kid wowed people

Meanwhile, Briefly News earlier reported that a kid showed just how very brilliant children can be at things that adults may find difficult to carry out.

In a short video that has gone viral on Instagram, a little boy joined some choreographers as he imitated their dance moves.

His performance was even more than an imitation as every move was in tune with what the other dancers were doing.
