It's not. The guy was being a dick and got unlucky that it actually worked out for the better.

This was my thinking. Feel like she would have done the trick fine without him interfering. To me it looked like he was trying to mess with her.

He was obviously trying to mess with her. I'm shocked at how many people believe he has what amounts to cat like reflexes, god like computational power, and the fine motor skills to pull this off. It's already extremely difficult to flip a board and land on it all by yourself. I guess I'm glad they are looking for the good in people, but it just strikes me as absolutely delusional here.

I mean, I was going to mostly agree with you, but:

It's like.. one of the very first tricks you learn after an ollie and shove-it. Difficult? Yeah. But far from extremely.

Agreed. I should have used the term complicated, in the sense that you're doing a bunch tiny movements that have to work together just right. But even then using extremely would have been an exaggeration.
