Skill: Proficiency, facility, or dexterity that is acquired or developed through training or experience.
Now, I would say that playing pso (or any game for that matter) for uncounted hours counts as training. And his ability to get to Ultimate with the speed at which he did definatly shows proficiency or facility at and with the game. I would say skill is involved. Infact, anywhing you make a concious attempt, anything you work on repeatedly over a period of time, to improve your ability in can be considered a skill. This means that if you feel that making the loudest burp possible is of incalcuable importance, so you spend every day trying to improve the tone, timbre, and length of your burps. That means you have elevated burping from a bodily function to a skill.
While it is doubtful that either of these skills (excelent PSO playing or world class burping) will pay the rent. They are things that can be considered skills.
I think when you use the word skill you are thinking along the lines of a
Marketable Skill.
