I wasnt ever an avid skateboarder, but since the waters gotten colder and this season is pretty much over, I've taken it back up again... espacially downhill or slalom skating. Something about nice smooth carving that just makes me giggle like a little school girl. For downhilling Ive got my dad's old original Fibreflex Teamrider.... old school.

Skateboarding has always been something I wanted to do, but for some reason never did. But in the last six months or so I've started doing it quite often and enjoy it alot.

Skating is what got me into wakeskating. I can't wait to get somewhere near concrete so I can skate again.

I started skating about 3 weeks ago.

Slapdown, avid means "do it alot". Say im an avid skateboarder, i skateboard every day after school and all the time on the weekends. You do it alot.

I have been skating ever since I saw The search for Animal Chin. I just got that DVD and man its still killer. Tommy Guerrero and Lance Mountain are my childhood heroes

the search for animal chin what a sick movie...... old school. I use to skate at a competition level whne I was young, but got into riding bikes and went the 2 wheel way. Im a skimboarder and thats how I have learned to progress in wakeskating. Except for the fact that I ride regular on a skateboard and ride goofey on a skim. So its fun trying tricks both ways once I learn it one way
