I don't know how many are aware of this guy on PS (is a sponsored pro) but he has a video series of him grinding it up from the bottom of bottoms up.  Very inspiring and up lifting, I think, for those who don't believe its doable.  I also remember a guy doing 100 to 10k but I can*t find it.  He plays very tight and straight forward, which is very interesting.
