Bankz's mother, Tori Stevenson, is proud of her brave little boy. "No fear, and maybe he is too confident," she said.
"Bankz had taken an interest in skateboarding since he was seven-months-old, now, he is fiercely independent, and we can't get him off the board.
"He always wants to skate, even inside. I constantly hear, 'Skatepark mummy,' and off we go."
The new Albury skatepark, in the border region of NSW and Victoria, has something to suit all, and the brave boy has been practising hard to master a 'Rock to fakie' move.
"He is very determined. When he wants to do something, he puts his all into it,"
Bankz is a part of the flying fruit fly circus outside of skateboarding and loves playing in the mud, trucks and getting messy.
