I skate for myself

The biggest problem in skateboarding now is people always 'judging' and having an opinion on what YOU do. When I started skating (like many 'slightly' older folk), everyone made fun of me. I still did it though not to fit in, not to be rebellious, but because I just enjoyed going out to an empty parking lot to learn tricks.

Skateboarding (to ME) is all about you and the board. Everything else is just noise.
I agree 100%. I push mongo and I don't give a fuck about people hating on it. I skate because I love it and not to impress people.
