How Chaz Ortiz finds his edge

At 16, pro skateboarder Chaz Ortiz seems to have already figured out one of life's important lessons "Noting worth doing is easy."

Gatorade and ESPN have partnered to produce a series of segments called "Inside The Edge," airing now through August on the Sunday 11 PM ET edition of SportsCenter.

This week it's Ortiz's turn to show his daily balancing act of school, skating, working out and oh yah being a normal teenager.

This is a far cry from the early days of skateboarding when skaters ditched class so they can skate and dehydrated themselves way more than they hydrated with sport drinks like Gatorade, plus the only workout they got was while skating or doing the classic 12oz curl.

Maybe this is a direct correlation for why these young kids are progressing the sport faster than ever.

Check out the preview from Sunday's segment on Sportcenter.
