Skateboarding is pure fun. I don't try to take skateboarding too seriously, because there's no fun in that at all. I love skateboarding, and everything that surrounds it. Being a somewhat "experienced" skateboarder myself, I'm not the kind of person that criticizes on every kid's "style" at the skate park. Because, to me that's not what skateboarding should be. To me, just about everybody is a good skateboarder on some degree, and I think that everybody is what makes skateboarding so much fun. The people you can meet out of just skateboarding is awesome. I can honestly say that, skateboarding has done a lot of good for me in the past eight years. It keeps me out of any serious trouble, helps me develop creative and innovative skills, and it allows me to be a part of a culture that is full of free expression and good wholesome people.
Skateboarding also gives back a lot of unforgettable memories. From seeing friends land their first tricks, getting tickets, discovering new spots, to laughing at us bail on film. You get a lot more out of skateboarding than some people would think. Skateboarding to me, is something I'm thankful for and proud to be a part of. I highly recommend skateboarding to anyone!
