Show generally

Question: Do the actors perform their own stunts on this show? If not, they did a great job of casting look-alikes.

Answer: It depends. If you watch the action scenes in slow motion, you can often tell if it's the actor or a stunt double. Leo Howard seems to do a lot of his own fight scenes and acrobatics while many of the fights and flips by other characters are done by doubles; although occasionally Olivia Holt will perform a simple flip or fight.

Both Leo Howard and Olivia Holt have black belts and completed their own stunts.

Show generally

Question: Did Leo Howard actually do all the skateboarding tricks that are in the show or were they stunt doubles?

Answer: Stunt doubles.

Gabby's Gold - S3-E8

Revealing mistake: When Kim and Gabby swing from the bar to kick the two villains, its obvious that Gabby kicked the guy in the knees, but he falls holding his chest. Plus Kim was a good 8-12 inches from her target and he fell anyway.
