Wheelz makes a wish come true

Aaron "Wheelz" Fotheringham spent the day with young Dustin from Germany as part of a Make A Wish Foundation initiative.

Unit wheelchair freestyler Aaron "Wheelz" Fotheringham spent a day late last week making someone's lifelong dream come true.

Young Dustin (pictured right) and his family were flown from Germany to Wheelz's home town of Las Vegas to spend a day hanging out with Wheelz as part of a Make A Wish Foundation intiative.

As well as taking a tour of Vegas Dustin hit the local skateparks with the Nitro circus star and tore up the concrete bowls and coping.

"It was a great day hanging out with him," Wheelz said afterward. "Dustin took some gnarly falls, but he did awesome. It was really humbling that one of his dreams in life was to come and hang out with me for a day, and I'm stoked to be able to have made his wish come true."

The Make A Wish Foundation is a non-profit organisation that grants wishes to children (2.5 years to 18 years old) who have life-threatening medical conditions.
