Im just driven to skate. its just the will to wanna skate, and I wanna learn as much as I can. And the fact that I love it too much to stop helps as well. I couldnt imagine what it would be like if I didnt step on a board every day, it would be one empty life for sure. Skateboarding takes over my thoughts. Also, Im wayy too adventurous, skating gives you adventurers. So thats what keeps me skating.
To be honest, I dont think skateboarding is heading in a good direction, everyone is too worried about just looking cool, and just beating the other guy with tricks; competition between fellow riders. Its too much of a stylish thing to do now, I really dislike all its popularity. All they see is whats on the surface, if they knew what was really goin on between the skater and the board, then they can say its cool. Were supposed to be hated and like you said, disrespected, soon its gonna change to the most loved and most idolized. Call me a hoodlum, label me a juvenile delinquent, hey, Id take that over an older man givin me a pat on the back or a thumbs up for carrying a board in one hand.

most don't realize how to use it. that is the difference between a leader and a follower.

skateboarding is and always will be a way to live, ever since i first stepped onto my board it has changed my whole perspective on life and how i see things through-out the world. i keep on skating because its a way to express myself and its my all time favorite thing to do. Have Fun Shredding!
