i believe im a very easy going person. i don't like to worry about little things. my motto has always been live fast skate faster. being always constricted by time schedules, due dates, and train schedules just isn't fun. i really like to skateboard because it gives me a way to express myself. a lot of people don't understand why people skateboard but it goes the same way with any sport. golf for example...why would you wanna sit outside all day and hit a ball with a club and try to get it into a hole?? when you do get the ball in the hole you feel accomplished. when you skateboard its the same thing. why would people jump down stairs and grind down rails? the feeling you get when you finally land a trick you have been trying for so long or you get a good line at a park and everyone claps when you get it is the same feeling of accomplishment. its all what you choose to do. i like skateboarding because its a on your own sport. i don't have to rely on someone else and its self motivation to do it. no one tells me that they cant skate because im not there or we have to wait on someone to go skate a park because it all comes down to you and what you want to do. it comes with its own lifestyle which has rubbed off on me hardcore. i say dude, man, lame, and gnarly. a lot of people judge skateboarders because most of us have long hair and tight pants. but its freedom of expression and that's why i like it. i could care less if someone doesn't like my pants or my hair. i think it is most influential to me because it showed me that there are a lot of different walks of life but skateboarding brings people together. i have friends that have a lot of problems at home and in life and ones that don't have a care in the world but when skateboarding none of it matters and when we all go skate you cant even tell the difference.
