Well said. You've reminded me of a beautiful sci-fi short story almost about this exact "mystery"
The sheer number and variety and networking of synapses involved in the skill 'skateboarding' is irreducibly, unintelligibly complex for an intelligence on the scale of a conscious human mind to describe, fully comprehend, or even recognize with a great deal of analysis. Even if you decided all the functional pathworks through the network in one example, you would not be able to decode another because every skateboarder has trained their neural network in a unique manner.
