[skategeezer]

what would you like to tell the powers that be in skateboarding... a few random responses...in alphabetical order...

An organization that all longboarders can join to protect our interests and promote the sport and grow awareness....similar in structure to that of ABATE for motorcycles and NORA for mountain bikes. We need to come together as a legal entity if we want to be known to the public as a real organization. awesomeAwsomebe cool with cops, no matter how dickish they are. skate to skate, not to hate and look coolBe original, but don't be afraid to build of something that works. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Improve on it.be safebig wheels are good, small wheels bad. Spacers good.black box is the sickest #### out. pacsun can die, stop the hate.., the berrics is epic,noone cares about anyones jeans. i wear mine tight. my friend dont. we still skate..boarding is for the boarders and its the little guys that make it all so bigcant you ever get good graphics? comeon just oncecheap 200mm cast truckscheapper better equipmentChris Chaput needs to release centrax sooner....hell every company needs to release the products they said theyd release instead of pushing the dates back.C'mon, cheaper boards!!Colorado has great skate parks!Communism begins now, give me all your expensive board making equipment so I can make them myself.creativity overcome the borders (within you, gravity) strength control freedom fun estheticscut the outrageous pricesCW needs to be monthly!decks are wayyyyyy too expensivedemo days? In NY!!!!doin good these are the best days by far in skateboardingDont careDon't change a thing. Do what you do.don't forget the older guys.Don't forget to include the little upcoming shredders..they are cool too..and incredibly photogenic. Don't ignore the older skatersdont let me break anything skate gods. i needs me my skating time! loldon't let people think that you'd have to be a punk to skate.Don't make longboarding big and mainstream. I like small companies. Big places like Loaded are too overpriced and produce a poser type. Good boards, but not for me.don't sell out to the comercial crap gameDownhill longboarding is addicting. I am always looking for bigger hills.drop the prices manEnough topmounts! We need more dropped racing decks, like the Nemi. everyone should spread the stoke and stop hatin.expensiveFocus on building a strong scene and people will buy you products. The scene is everything.free your mind........freedom of mind#### chicks, ride hard, no regrets. relevant right?get lostget rid of all the "image" BS and get back to the roots of skating. Embrace all aspects of skateboarding instead of just one.Go SkateGo Skate!God made roads to be skatedgreat mag but hard to find in south florida, but bobby stack is working on it.great magazine! I wish it was monthly thoughhard good ads and variety are what we want!! hate is not cool , Skate boarding started ( for me ) as a way to pass time while waiting for waves don't take the soul out of it!Helmet safety! Companies should really promote safety in their ads and videos *hint hint Original*. Helmets. Wear themHere here for all the new innovations and technology in our sport. Boooo hooo waaaaaah! for the new tribalism in disciplines. Hey man. They're all boards with 4 wheels. Shut up and just skate...and ditch the B.A. We're supposed to be having fun. It IS the "Golden Age of SK8ing".hey, nice kids skate too. Stop paying exclusive attention to bad-ass wannbeesHi powers. What's up?Hook up the poor kidhow do i get sponsored?How does one get to be a "powers that be" ? Is there a college prep class i could take?I don't care.i dont know what you mean by "the powers that be in skateboarding." sorry.I hate winteri have to temper soem stuff for my 7 year old boyI reall like how every company seems to be growing. There is a lot of progress being made and products are being made in a higher quality than they were even 2 years ago. Also, can someone please change the geography of the Midewest? We need sweeter hills :PI think that some people are giving it a bad name, but others try to help others see that we aren't all vandalising freaksI think that the majority of the people involved in the sport are great people...but, just recently I heard that someone ratted out a couple kids who were planning a sesh to the police and got busted, that, in my opinion, is not cool and is what is giving the sport a bad rep. (for the skaters, not the cops ha I want to see more trucks in the 45 degree baseplate rangeI WISH I COULD STREET SKATE BETTER!!!I wish longboarding wasn't so fad drivin. The tides shift so rapidly its hard to keep up. I wish people weren't always trying to commercialize speedboarding. I like the fact that it's underground. It's a dangerous sport as is, and people are always trying to shut us down, whether it be at events, before events, or just skating down the street. Keep it underground.I wish wheels would cost lessI would like to have more accesss to information on being sponsored. My Mom wishes there were more sales on stuff, like boards.I would like to stress the difference between street skating and longboarding; so that longboarders can keep a good reputation and continue to ride legally.idkIdkim awesome!I'm swimming in ads and sometimes mediocre writeups.In short, I wish everyone who is involved in skateboarding to keep innovation, originality, creativity, quality, and fun at the top of their priority list.innovate...
