The Future and Soul of Skateboarding.
We can not let skateboarding die. With all these parks popping up every where, especially in the cites, kids are just going there all day every day not exploring the dirty fun street spots and downtown cites that are right there waiting to be skated. from a quote i saw "If downtown skateboarding dies, a portion of skateboardings soul dies with it." We cant let this happen.

Hey Brandon. Nice blog. This last topic is the completely truth.
ReplyDeleteI am leaving now (last days here) and
all the time that I skateboarded Downtown I was pretty much alone and sometimes with one or other local... I mean, downtown is awesome as much as the skateparks here. They are super crowded, but super good. I wish we had skateparks like that in Brasil, but we don't.
But the thing is that most of the kids that I saw just want to spend the whole day playing game of skate at the parks and a bunch of other people spend the whole life doing the same tricks in the same park (it's like that in Brasil too). There are some places that are famous here and when I asked, some skaters just didn't know abot that. They got focus only in the little park around their neighboor and sometimes they forgot that skateboard is the old "Search and Destroy" attitude...
