I love to skateboard

Vance Collins · Guest

Its fun. My Enjoi finally came, and all I've been doing is learning. I've been dealing with some hard personal issues lately, and skating really sets me free. I don't worry about anything and just ride around. Its great. I've got like a 3 inch ollie and im proud. My friend who is alot better than me (he can do like shuvs and ollie 180s) said its good that i always land on the board when im trying my ollies, like sometimes i dont get the back wheels off the ground, but i land back on the board, which is always a good thing! Heres a picture of my skate!

vance,(in your best yoda voice) much to learn have you hmmmmmm, learn to skateboard you must, so that free you may be.

o.k now that im done with that your life will never be the same. i cant imagine what i would be like if i didn't skate when i was younger.

freerider4, ben ray, Take a little break from skating... maybe a day or maybe a few weeks.

Sometimes you have to just step back and not think about it for a little while.. then go try new stuff... thats what i do.

Skateboarding will definetly keep your wakeskating up to par. After wakeskating a skateboard seems tiny. I like falling on water better.

senorbueno, that sucks man yeah my school is conveniently located right next to downtown tampa florida and this sweet place called the bro bowl and living in florida is a plus.
