Karolina Ramirez’s love of basketball started around age 6. She loved the sport and playing so naturally her practice led her to perfection. Her ball handling skills and tricks rival some of the pros.

Not only can she do the basic tricks like between the legs, around the back, two balls at the same time- she steps it up and adds a hula hoop and a pogo stick. And the best part is, she can even do all three at the same time.

If you’re still not impressed, it should be known that this future basketball star is only 12.

She shows off immediately with her most impressive skill, dribbling 2 basketballs on a pogo stick, but she doesn’t stop there. There are also around the back tricks and juggling that make the feat even harder. You can’t tell though because Karolina makes everything looks so easy.

Her laser focus moves on to her next trick, the hoola hoop. Without losing her balance or control of the basketballs she starts to move them through the hanging hoola hoop.

After that, Karolina shows off her quick feet and ball handling skills with some drills that are commonly done at a high school level practice at least, but she does them all with the skill of a professional athlete. She moves forwards and back, through her legs under one, over another, around the back- its impossible to keep up.

She drops down to one ball but that doesn’t make the tricks any less amazing. She picks up speed and continues to shuffle her feet and move the ball through her legs and around her body like its attached to her on a string.

Next Karolina moves to a chair to prove that even when she’s taking a break, she’s actually still practicing. Again she makes every move and dribble look easy and, but she’s going so fast that you can hardly keep your eye on the ball.

Youtube isn’t the only ones who have noticed her talent though. She made national news and the world saw her skills when she was featured on Live! With Kelly and Ryan where she came out dribbling and high five-ing everyone in the audience. Though her clip was short, it wasn’t lacking talent and the audience went crazy for her.

This girl has got game and it’s pretty clear that if she keeps it up, her basketball career will only keep getting better.
