who or what is stifling your skate stoke?

[the bear]

Being sick on and off for the past month, getting ditched by "friends", friends that skate that would rather stay in the go out and bomb some hills, having my summer be completely filled with working leaving no time to get out, getting my little heart broken up by some girl that lead me on like no bodies business, and how really the only thing that's good in my life right now is boarding. Gotta get my arsenal in gear and move and work in Whistler. Need some drive first.

This sounds like my life minus the girl leading me on.

Friends wanting to quit a session only after 4 runs because they don't want to walk up hills. So lame. My legs are burning to ya know? You don't see me bitching about it.

sounds like you need to get some friends that smoke less and excercise more. get them offa that couch. id be skating with you for hours. ****, i RUN up hills just so i can get up faster and enjoy some more rides back down. Nothing like sweatin balls then gettin that wind whippin past your face and coolin yah down again.

being that i'm 18, i can't hit him, knowing if i dropped him he'd run to his mommy and then i'd lose my nice practice spot. I don't get why other kids seem to hate, while everyone older seems to enjoy even ask about longboarding. i just don't get it.

Tell them that if they want to talk stuff then let him get on. either they will love it and get their own or they will go down, get speed wobbles, then eat it, and you can laugh.

Broken right ankle that never healed quite right. Now I get these random shooting pains and my ankle swells after a few sessions. :/

[benderhune]

What stifles my stoke? College, bills, having absolutely no money, 2 unpaid internships, senior thesis, NO TIME, oh and despite that I live in a longboarding haven, the longboarders here are complete noobs. Super stifle!

[tiffmart94]

a.) my asthma
b.) loads of homework for my psychology class
c.) upcoming SAT's -_-
d.) hispanic parents who panic at the thought of me riding around alone on a board
e.) all of the above

[casey21159]

all the metal parts holding my leg together at the moment. two more months!

[nineball87]

highsiding and somehow getting roadrash on your ****

[longboarder04]

[Affenboy]

Gearheadish know-it-alls but skate-it-nots.

And the 100000000000000s Freeride video.

[geokatilus]

***holes who call the cops, guards at every parking garage, my friend that tells everyone about spots that we find, and the lack of hills

[Vugen]

An utter and total lack of good hills to bomb.. Ill ride the flats for an hour or two, but it gets old, I need a hill within skating distance of my house.

[k20tech]

I don't know, I'm just losing stoke in general. Seriously considering selling all my gear/boards, slapping some 66 mm soft wheels on a street deck, and just using it to get around when I need to.

[Zac Attack]

My lame skate "friends" who told me they're not going to a hill last night, then post all over facebook today about how fun it was at the hill. And I have 45mm cults waiting to be finished off... Idiots...

[SmileWhenYouSteez]

C.R.E.A.M- just like the wu-tang song. the lack of funds to my name is really slashing my stoke.
my usual group has pretty much moved permanently to their respective college towns.
the only ones left complain about skating places they haven't gone or is out of their comfort zone.(foot brake for christ's sake)
cracked board

What's killing my stoke?

Hmm... well:



Wanna hear the ironic part? We are apparently in the middle of a drought. There is a hosepipe ban being enforced.



England you suck.

Plus my slidey deck is away atm so I can't even go and hydroplane madly out of control and crash into cars.

[rosewood thief]

The blacks mostly.

Not much better up north, was gonna go skate today until I got soaked just walking across the road to the supermarket.

[Ian F F]

3 weeks of rain. When i say 3 weeks of rain, I literally mean rain every day for 3 weeks. And no, I cannot afford rain wheels :c

This stupid gray island is most unpleasant. I miss South Africa...
