Default Skating on campus... amazing.

There is something about skating on a campus that makes it the most fun type of skating for me. I'm not sure if it is the pedestrian slalom, and the faces i get as i weave through people, grazing their shirts, or if its the ease of getting to class while crosstepping and dancing. I love it, for the first day i walked to my classes and was miserable walking into my classes, but today i skated to all my classes and just walked in smiling feeling much better about the day. Keep it real. Anyone else feel similar?

I love to skate on campus, and bust slides in front of people. They are always amazed and it's a good way to get chicks too lol.

It's that feeling that lets me shrug off the campus-cruiser-faggot elitism I seem to frequently find myself on the receiving end of. I've always been about taking the scenic route.

Am I the only one that finds the biggest hill on campus and bombs it between classes? :P

Campus cruising rawkz my sawkz. I've skated to every class but 3 maybe. I hate getting those looks like, "What a ### skating around" but such is life. I'm having a blast, I just wish there was less sidewalk and more bike trails.

I love how there are so many longboarders here. It's like a really big, disconnected family... even if you don't know a person, you can just give them a nod and it's like you do.
