Who here SKATEBOARDS!?
    #7394305 - 09/10/07 10:46 PM (16 years, 4 months ago)

so i was sitting here really baked thinking about my skate sesh today at the park, and i had such a good day i was landing pretty much every trick i tried today with ease. and i also learned a new trick today, actually two but there kinda the same form. A Nollie/and fakie heelflip sexchange. i was pretty hyped.


anyway i was thinking about the shroomery and was wondering if there were any skaters on here. SO

WHO HERE SKATES? and if want itd be cool if you gave a brief summary of your skating history, what tricks you can do, and anything else ya want i guess, favorite skaters? watever. :grin:

My life has pretty much been rededicated to skating.

Been skating off and on for decades. Few years ago I jumped back on the board and dispites my body not taking it the same way I'm kicking way more ass then nearly ever.
Skating and Hotrods have pretty much been the only consistent thing in my life,and i owe all my my being to both of them.

Really started skating around the late 80's early 90's crowd,very punk,very real renegade shit.

Got real big in serious Downhill speedboarding. it's good for the body,yet being twice as dangerous. It's good for just being with a board....at 50-60mph.

Tricks? Ha...I've never been down with trick names,and just do my shit. I do all kinds of weird eccentric "tricks". These days I'm just happy with tearing through pool block and getting some big airs.

Till Deff.

well what do you know. i cant believe anyone actually remembered that!

lol basically, i still play basketball alot. just not everyday. its wierd because my life just kindatook a turn in direction ever since this sumemr began. i began hanging out with many many different people, i became very close with two guys in particular. they are really really good friends with eachother and have been for years and i was always cool with them, just never hung out with them on an everyday basis like i did this summer. and hanging out with them lead to hanging out with more people they knew and even meeting people they didnt know at the skatepark and watnot.

neway, along with what i was saying about my life changing direction, all the sudden my younger brother who is 12 really got into skating. He knew that i used to skate when i was his age everyday non-stop from sun-up to sun-down fore about a year and would always ask me to teach him tricks and help him learn shit and even go skate with him, but i really wasent into it nemore, i was always ballin' instead so i would decline alot, feeling kinda of selfish about it. so occasionally i would help him out iwht his ollie or shuvit or kickflip but i was always super rusty from not having skated for years so i wasent too solid and clear about teaching him stuff. and then a friend of mine(one of the two who i was telling you about) would also ask me to go to the skatepark with him, and how he got back into skating again and how much fun it is and yadi yada.

i kind of saw it as an omen, or in other words, god was trying to relay a message to me or speak to me through close people i knew, and it was to begin skating again. SO inturn i decided to go to the skatepark one day coming up on 3 months ago and have been going basically everyday hours at a time ever since. It is so much damn fun skateboarding again, and its so free and a very spirited art. skating is also very social you meet cool people and have cool and interesting convo's with people you meet at the skate park. it has an amazing culture you can see a different variety of people at a skatepark. and theres nothing like hearing claps and "OOOOWWWW!'s" and the taps from the boards hitting the surface and coping when you land a nice trick! it just gives you a really good feeling inside and gives you more confidence to keep skating. skateboarding is an amazing and hella fun thing to do. and by it i also set a very good example for my younger brother. he looks up to me alot, knowing i know more about skateboarding in general than him. i can teach him tricks now and give him advice when hes having trouble with a certain trick and it also gives reinforcement for him, knowing that his older brother skates and is good and he knows he can learn from me and its a bonding experience. i know how it makes him feel when i tell him he can do it, or when i tell him good job and give any other kind of encouragement. it makes him happy and feel good inside and gives him confidence.

lately he has bee telling me he wants to go pr. he asks me "do you think i can go pro?" i tell him everytime, "i know your going to go pro".

i can see it in his eyes when he skates hes very passionate about it when he comes home from school he goes strait to the park for 3 4 5 hours and when he comes home he gets on youtube and watches nyjah houston and eric koston and rodney mullen videos. it is crystal clear to me that his life revolves around skating,.

i also feel i will establish a stronger more important, more profound place in his heart if i skate with him and show him things.


basically, going to the NBA isnt my endeavor any more.

Im going to TESC to study ppsychology because I AM going to become a psychologist. and along with it skateboarding and hoopin will always be my hobbies. i am very content with the way my life is going right now. i also came to the realization i wouldnt be completely commited to tryign to get to the NBA. im fine with skating and hoopin ust because i love to do them and they are my passions.

life really, really coudlnt be better:grin:

hoped that answered your question jewunit :lol:

well Active Mail Order is for other states besides CA
because we have Active Ride Shops
which are the Active skate shops that you can actually walk into and buy stuff haha

because i know a lot of people know about Active Mail Order, but don't know that Active actually has skate shops.. but only in CA

Being sponsored is gay,going pro is gay. Doing the same tricks you see in every video all day long is...gay.

I think a certain 1989 video said it best just "SHUT UP AND SKATE."

i skate just to skate. its something to do. ive come to sense that i wont ever be pro or sponsored for that matter although it would be nice. also i didn't know there were actually Active shops thats pretty cool.

it's moderately easy to get sponsored by a local shop

kickflip a few stairs
hit a few rails
and do some vert too
show that you have variety
definitely learn some fakie/nollie tricks
and get your slides down, not just your grinds

you can just have basic tricks down
but as long as you have a range of various tricks
it will definitely make you look like a good candidate for sponsorship

I skate almost everyday, but since I only have a longboard right now, I dont pull tricks often. Now and then I grab a smaller skateboard and I can flow pretty good.

i hate when people ask me what tricks i can do.. because people who are real skateboarders dont ask shit like that ... cause they know tricks are completely subjective to what your doing the tricks on/over...  i mean thats what little kids ask you, or people who just started and arent very good

cause if your just talking about flip tricks on flat ground,i can do basically all of them :smirk:
