i'd skate, but the streets here suck. THey are all rocky, and there are no curbs...heh I did ask for a snow skate for xmas tho. Its like just the board, but for snow. ;)

Yeah I skate. IMO, Koston is the king of street, he's just overrated (don't kill me now >.<).

I skate, unbelieveable but yes, I do. I've been skating for about a year now and I've been trying to preform some of Mullen's techie tricks. Daewon Song and Rodney are my favorites at the moment.

I tried to skate about a year ago. Didn't turn out as easy as I thought. I barely moved forward and begged my brother to hold me and stop the skateboard. lol..never did get on a skateboard again.
So that's why I stuck to tennis. @_@

I got into skating just back in the summer, and I ride a Zero Lopez. Yeah, I can ollie and stuff, and once it gets warm down here, I'm gonna' skate 24/7 trying to get way better, y'know? Yeah and my avatar is from a Flip deck, BTW.

ive just recently started up skating. im REALLY close to pulling off an ollie, but i havent been able to yet. :p anyway, my board fell in my pool one time while i was riding it, and we couldnt get it out for 3 days, so its in pretty bad shape. got any good recommendations? =p anyway, skateboarding's fun, but skimming pwns :p (oh come on u knew i was gonna say that)

Ride Lib Tech skates, they make better skates than they do snowboards. They're light as hell, it increased my ollie by a few inches just having a lighter deck. The fiber glass outer layers make it slicker (harder to boardslide, noseslide, and tailslide at first but you get the hang of it pretty quick.) but they also make it lighter. Plus Lib makes the highest quality deck on the market (that I know of). Their decks are 7 ply (regular amount of ply) but they're hand stamped by factory employees ONE at a time, as opposed to even brands like Element and Zero who are probably close to next leading in quality who have machine stamped decks that are done 3 at a time. There's more effort put into the creation of a Lib and it shows in the deck's performance. But anyways, I've been skating a while now, off and on since 8th grade actually. But when it comes to physical activities I'm a slow learner at times. Just before it snowed here though I was gettin' backside flips and double kicks down pretty good. And almost landing tre flips...pisses me off, one of my best friends landed that **** almost right after he started skating...Best skater is, without a shadow of a doubt, Mullen. After Mullen my fav skaters are Koston and Reynolds (Reynolds got signed by Birdhouse originally because he was so willing to attempt ollying off airport hangars = )...)Tony the assbag Hawk claims to have invented the most tricks, but look up lists of tricks he's made and look up lists of tricks the mullenator's invented. There's no contest, Mullen's got Mr. Poser's ass whupped. I hate vert, there's no variation in it, it's all the same, huge spin (540, 720, even 900 in a certain poser's case) followed up by some cheap grinding that you don't even have to ollie into cuz the coping's right there on your vert ****. Screw all vert. I especially hate Tony Hawk cuz after landing the 900 he gets this major arrogant attitude like "I just landed the "biggest trick ever" so I'm gonna quit skating comps (But I'll still skate my own tour cuz that's a cash cow) and let my company (Birdhouse) drag in the dough". What a poser.

Yeah Libs are nice. But I also recommend getting a heavy board, and using it for training. It'll make your ollie on a lighter board WAY higher. But yeah, I'm not a fan of vert either. It's pretty boring if you ask me.

i suck at skating. . . --; i'd say i'm at the poser lvl but maybe that's just because im pessemistic. lol, my friends say i'm better. i have an element bam margera fiberlight 2 board. girl 52 wheels. grind king g6 trucks. black panther 7 bearings. lucky risers and hardwear. bam margera is damn sexy. lol, sorry for going all girly on you guys.

I skate. I'm working on the 360 flip and I just accomplished getting double kickflips in the work. Antihero and grindkings are my favorite companys. Antiheros are pretty durable. Rodney Mullen is one of my fave skaters. Bam Margera is ok. He's a bit overrated though. :X.

i skate blind, i got speed dmoen abec 5 bearings, indy trucks, lucky hardware, ricta natural 52mm wheels. i'm pretty good at skaeboarding. i can do a large variety of tricks, but i really like telling posers, and sucky people to do tricks and watch them fall, i got quite a few of them up around my way.
