    Default Understanding the Stoke

    On Sunday I went skating with my friend from high school. We went to a garage that I discovered that's about 5 minutes from where I live. We hit the jackpot. There was no one working in the office building next to it, and yet the elevator was turned on. A few times I've gone to that garage late at night, but the elevator was off. This garage bombing session was my very first. I feel like a Boyscout who's just shot his first BB gun. I've only been skating since Jan 08, and I thought I understood what it meant to be Stoked!, but that garage is going to become my second home for the rest of the summer!

    Sounds great. By all means turn on your friends and skate buds to it by personally taking them there but don't blow the place out! Don't give out directions over the internet.

    Do you ride a sector nine and wear a bandanna?

    I cant stand the word "Stoke". Everytime i read the word or hear someone say it, it just reminds me of some tweaked out surfer that does nothing but smoke meth and surf all day. I'm so "stoked" brahhh...<----Insert bullet in head here.

    Sour grapes. I recommend you eat a banana popsicle and then take a nap.

    Don't give directions unless it is a PM. And by all means, don't graffiti the place.. take care of it. You don't want to give skaters a bad name, and you don't want to get kicked out of the place.
