Of all the boarders hurtling off the ramps at Scotland's largest indoor skatepark Max Cameron is hard to miss.

A tiny figure standing less than half the height of the other riders, he has a jaunty blonde quiff poking out from under his helmet and a bright blue Superman skateboard tucked under his arm.

"Santa got me it, it's my favourite," he says shyly. "I use it all the time."

A few years ago Max was in nursery school. Today, he's at one of the country's most renowned skateparks, dropping off towering ledges more than five times his height.

"I like it when I go really fast and I can feel the air go past," he says with a wide grin.

At seven years old, Max is one of the youngest riders at Unit 23 in Dumbarton, home to some of Scotland's top BMX and skateboard stunt riders, including professional street trials star Danny MacAskill.

Max is one of the next generation of stuntmen, fearlessly mixing with the big boys and comfortably dropping in off 20ft ramps.

The young thrill seeker, from Bishopton, Renfrewshire, picked up a skateboard for the first time one summer after showing a natural ability for surfing on a family holiday.

Back in Scotland, his dad decided to look for a sport which involved a similar level of balance and skill closer to home.

"He picked it up so quickly," says his dad, Ross. "He really seems to have taken to it."

"I'm the only one in my school who does it," says Max. "I would like to do one day gym at school and the rest skateboarding if I could."

"Although," he adds, hesitating. "Maybe I'd do maths too. I don't mind maths because you get to play on computers."

With the support of his parents, Max regularly takes on the sports he loves and has become an adept snowboarder, surfer and BMX rider.

He has even donned a helmet and gone out on his first motorbike lesson, with his parents happy to support their young son's adventure seeking spirit.

"It would be great if there was more in Scotland actually to support young kids into different kinds of sport," says Ross.

"I think the more opportunities made to young people from all backgrounds, the better."

Max is certainly happy with his wide mix of hobbies and it seems others are keen to see what he's up to as well.

The young lad has his own Instagram following and although not yet old enough to compete in some of the world's largest competitions, hopes to follow in the tracks of heroes Ryan Scheckler and Scotland's Andy White.

He's also keen to encourage other would-be riders to join him and has some sound words of advice for those nervous to give it a go.

"You have to be confident," he says.

"Sometimes I'm not sure I can some things, but then my dad says I can do it, so I do."
