Alex Perelson and the tailgrab 900

Young lad Alex Perelson may have just immortalized his name into the pages of skateboarding history. He is already the youngest in an elite group of humans who have landed a 900 degree rotation on a skateboard. Tony Hawk, Giorgio Zattoni, Sandro Dias, and Bob Burnquist are some pretty impressive company.

Tony Hawk did it first in 1999, using a mute grab to hold his board to his feet during the intense rotation. Now Alex has added a new degree of difficulty by grabbing his tail.

Some may argue that a tail grab isn't thaaat hard, but i don't see those people doing two and a half rotations while ten feet above the coping of a 15 foot vert ramp. Check it out for yerself.
