If anyone could give the skateboarding cat a run for his money, it just might be this kid.

Two-year-old Kahlei Stone-Kelly has already been skating around Victoria, Australia, for most of his short life. He started at just six months, and he’s already got the basic mechanics down.

Wearing nothing but his diaper, he works his way around curves and bumps, and while he doesn’t always make his mark, he’s even got the hang of falling down. He’s not wearing a helmet or shoes, but his father is always watching.

Not only is Stone-Kelly a natural, it just might be genetic. He’s the youngest of seven, and the entire family of skateboarding enthusiasts travels around the country to compete together. Follow them! They regularly post the footage to Facebook.

Someone sign him up as soon as he’s old enough—and seriously, get him some safety gear.
