Aggressive In-Line skating for me.

I felt bad for the people really dedicated to skateboarding...
Why? Cause it was the hugest trend for a while...It eventually died down over here though.

Would you count the crap they do on CKY, Viva-la-BaM, or Jackass skateboarding? ex. waggon surffing off a half pipe, car surffing n' jumping off it... biggrin.gif

i can skateboard.. skated for3 years.. but i stopped for a while.

ollie : back foot and tail front foot in middle.. pop down on the tail as hard as possible and slide your front foot up so its like at the nose of board.

kickflip: almost same as ollie.. except your front foot's heel should hang out.. then do a ollie, but theninstead of sliding upon heelside.. go up on toe and then bring it out until it hangs over the board.. and flick out so the board spins.. it took me a while to get it. you want to hover over the board even if the board doesnt flip all the way. you want to learn and catch it.once you see the grip tape you want to have you back foot on as quick was possible then your front foot follows..

popshove its: a feww people have different ways.. but my way is ollieing.. and then you want to kick you back foot bakward so your like making the board do a 180 .. oryou can do it with uyour front foot. then you hover above the board and you try and land it.

tricks take time to learn. it took a year to get an ollie right. just keep practicing and you should get it. good luck bro

^^ It took me almost 6 months to learn how to ollie well and another couple of months to kickflip. So you're obviously lying or skilled. I'm thinking you're lying.

My skateboard is a really cheap one but my mum says that once i get my riding right, she'll get a new Element board for me laugh.gif I just got started, but I'm already LOVING skating!!! its taking over me! i hope you all other skaters are as motivated by skating!

i really got into skating when i was about 11 or 12. i stopped for a while...then started again the summer i was 14. i'm probably going to start up again this summer. it's funny because when people ask low long i've had my skateboards, they assume that i'm really good because i've owned them for about 5 years, when in reality i skate for a while and quit for a while, so i suck. blink.gif

I wish I could! I've had a horrible experience with it though when I was younger. My brother decided to skateboard while carrying me (I was an infant at the time). A dog started to chase him, and in his hurry to get away, he fell, along with me. I hurt my nose =(

Yeah, but it's an on && off thing for me. My ex and his friends were skaters and I decided it'd be fun to board. So I bought myself an Element, did I mention I'm in love w/ it?! Except..I want a new deck && possible some new trucks, they're crap, honest, I loosened a bolt && lost it...Now, I don't skateboard, it's kinda lonely skating alone and trying to do tricks. I read a lot about it, but I'm a more visual and social person...I can't perform tricks too well when reading words.

Err, I can do an ollie && I could do a kickflip, but I'm sure I forgot that too.

Slap yourself.
Lol

It ain't a bit preppy, the preps will be worried their hollister clothes will be ruined, and you can't skate in flip flos (:
But that's just a sterotype.


Skateboarding is Skater, Punk/Rock.

I've been skateboarding since I was 8, but I stopped because my cousin took my deck and sold it, but I started again in 7th grade. Got into a big accident and was too scared to start again, but a year ago I started trying to ride again and now I can coast pretty well, I'm just starting to learn how to ollie and jump with the board, but it's reaallly hard. I had to stop for a month because I sprained my ankle

I used to skate from 4th-6th grade, but stopped 'cause my deck got all messed up.
I just started skating again earlier this year and I suck now. pinch.gif

I should have just bought a new one in 6th grade.. sad.gif

Revived the topic since I, too, skate =]

I've been skating for about a year and a half now. 4 hours a day at the legendary spots: Petit Park, Sav Ons Gap

A lot of people here at my school have picked up it as a trend though...makes me feel like I'm one of them sometimes =/

I don't like it when guys say 'OMG I SK8 EVERIDAY!' Then they can't skate for their life. I can skate pretty well. But I can't do any fancy tricks.
