A 16-year-old boy is fast becoming a rising star in the world of stunt scooter riding.

Gilbert, from South Gloucestershire, only picked up the hobby a few years ago, but is already competing at international tournaments.

He took up the sport following an ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) diagnosis.

His parents said scootering has helped him focus his energy, even though he regularly comes home with new injuries.
