The earbuds thing is dumb some people skate to release and get away. Just because they are sharing the park doesn't mean they want to socialize nor does it mean they have too. If they are minding their own and not blatantly getting in the way then let them be. Skating is skating.
i agree with you
Thank you! My local skatepark is usually me (a 37 year old dude) and kids around 10 years of age. I sometimes wear headphones so that I don't have to talk to them. Lol
my g
Safety hazard
I always wear headphones when I skate no matter what
I dont usually wear a helmet unless I know Im going to fail at something, usually from heights. But I dont understand why anyone would hate on someone else for wearing something that makes them feel safe. I hate that I cant see out of the corner of my eyes with a helmet and the way my hair gets stuck but I would never hate on someone for not wanting to break their head open.
I first did snowboarding and mountain biking, recently into skateboarding so I naturally started with wearing a helmet and got confused when I had some weird looks, different cultures I guess
Not only does it make you feel you safer but also prevents you from smashing your skull on concrete
I've had 30 concussions from skating I now have eye problems and migraines 2 times a month bad debilitating ones. I wish I wore a helmet. I didn't but I'm lucky I only have small symptoms ot could be much worse. I learned the "ninja roll" and it saved me more times than I know.
@@scottlenjenkins410 what are the eye issues you have from head injury?
Corny 🤷♂️
from a casual skater's perspective seeing people gatekeep other skaters by what they do, how they ride, or what they wear really seems hypocritical for a sport mostly known for breaking rules
It always seemed like a bit of a joke to me too. The irony of such a rebellious group of people trying to tell other people how to do things is laughable
@@siriussay1065 like the great Emo Kid song of 2006 said, "Non-conforming as can be, you'd be non-conforming too if you look just like me"
Wear whatever you want. Been a skating for 15 years and people I’ve met pretty much no one who cares what you wear. I learned blunt to fakies in target shoes because they were the only shoes I could afford at the time.
@@michaelmiguel6937 im so casual of a skater im thinking you got a blunt in one hand and picking up board to fakie in other
It’s not a sport
I love how skate culture is basically F all the rules but when it comes to core skaters they believe you better follow their rules
That's just humans. Gatekeeping is everywhere, and can be safely avoided in just about every single context.
eat healthy fibres - electro-lytes skitsofrenia fades
Well said.
You gatekeep things you care about you don't want lamest ruining what made it cool in the first place so it's understandable
non lifers care more about the supericial aspects of the "culture", its a phase for them they may do clean flip tricks but they dont gatekeep shit to someone who doesnt care if they approve of his headphones or not because he is not intrrested in talking about the xgames or being accepted into their boysl club
I don't wear any ear buds when I'm there on the weekends to hang out with the crew, but otherwise I just want to chill in my own space and focus on my sessions during the week. Fortunately, the guys at my local park are chill and know I don't mean any disrespect when I just want to focus and chill with my music.
I think helmet and protection shouldn't even been a debate. If you want to avoid major injuries I think you got the right to do so, brain damage, fractured head and broken teeth isn,t really something you want to mess with. If you want to take the risk, and not put a helmet, its fine if you like the adrenaline rush of it, but don't judge people who just want to have fun on their board without worrying about major injuries.
THANK YOU
Yeah. Putting helmet on bmx makes me feel safer and I get way higher bunnyhops and land tricks easier becouse I feel safer and I get the courage to do the tricks

9:34. As a young skater, I always wear helmets and pads. I'm still learning how to drop, and I've already broken an arm. I'm wearing the pads until I feel I am comfortable with my skateboard to 100%.
Honestly, I think you should be wearing them even if you were 200% comfortable
@@layceelay5382 i think you should wear pads always if learning something new but doing something you already can do you can wear what you want
Think of it like this, you'll always be trying something you're not used to and comfortable with. And if you're progressing those things will only get bigger and more uncomfortable. Falls happen when least expected even when you're in your element or zone. If you fall in a way that hits the head, you're already bailing in a way that's uncontrollable. Helmets mean you won't loose weeks of sessions recovering from concussions or worse injuries. If you get a bad enough head injury you may never be able to skate again. Never take the helmet off while you're skating. Take it from someone who knows people with permanent disabilities from skate related head injuries. Helmets will eventually be widely accepted even in street skating. Helmets are pretty cool
I think the whole sport debate can be summed up like this. Running or swimming aren’t inherently sports. But then you get into things like track, cross country, and event swimming which are all sports. So if you’re just going to a park to skate, not a sport but if you’re competing for points and trying to win, it’s a sport
Running from a bear seems like it would be a good sport.
Yeah it's more of just a hobby
Yeah
That’s not the same tho, think of like snowboarding, it’s a freestyle sport, a sport where you do whatever you want to, and skating is the same
Yeah skating is like going to a gym it’s a hobby you do that is physical if ur competitive or sponsor it could be consider a sport for u but I mostly work my wielding job and stay home with my baby and I’ll occasionally go skate I’ve been progressing a lil more with my skating even though I’m skating less I don’t understand 😂
I hate all of this because it’s all about caring what other people think. I skate. I don’t care what you think about my clothing, my protective gear, my board, my skills, or my mental stability. I just skate.
skateboarding is definitely a sport.. cause it's physical, you need certain muscles in order to be able to do certain tricks, you sweat a lot skateboarding. It is actually a super cardio training.. i lost almost 10kg skatebording in just some months so.. yes. Definitely a sport
i agree
What about esports?
@@WBROTHERS I personally don't think they should be considered a sport.. they are video games not sports
@@tommyneve2351 so a sport has to be a workout?
@@WBROTHERS I think that it should be at least something physical to be called a sport, even if not actually a workout... thats nothing wrong with playing games, nothing wrong with competing in games either, i like that shi. But I don't think it should be called a sport.. its esport actually, not sport.
On the whole ear bud/headphones thing, many wireless ones have a "pass through" mode that let's you still hear what's going on around you while listening to music.
Ever played a game of skate? Tried to see who could Ollie the highest? Manual for the longest? Competition (even professional competition) has been a part of skating since very early on and there's so many ways that skaters compete with eachother.
There's tonnes of recreational activities which can also be sports, skating is no different - it doesn't need to be a discussion with other activities, surfing, cycling, driving etc - all things that can be done for fun or sport... Why do so many skaters have to be so precious? Where's the idgaf attitude?
Me personally, I feel like you should be able to wear whatever you want while skating. It’s how you express yourself! As long as it doesn’t hurt anyone else, you should be happy doing it and not care about what other people think about you! People should also keep their opinions to themselves. If it makes a person happy to wear certain clothes, then they should do it! And if you don’t like it, just avoid them!!
Skateboarding is definitely a sport. Like swimming or running. As a hobby for exercising and improving a skill. However differently from those two, skateboarding is also an art. Where there is a sense of style, creativity, and expression when skating.
Also I skate with earbuds in because the music puts me in a flow.
😆😅🤣
bro, skateboarding is DEFINITELY a sport, and If people think it isn’t, then what do they think about snowboarding???
The helmet / pad debate. At 52 if I slam with no pads, I'm out for a while and can't skate. With pads, I injure less and recover quicker = more skating and less time off work not earning! When I slammed without a helmet - 3 months concussion and I genuinely remember very little from those 3 months. That's 3 months of my kids growing up missed. Salba wears pads, Vallely wears a lid. Been a skinhead (trad skin NOT bonehead for you Americans) since 88 and I don't get helmet hair! Always pad on vert but that poses the lowest risk as the transition is so big, you just slide - much nicer than 5 feet onto concrete. As a kid I wore wrist guards only as I kept spraining my wrists.
Im a core skater but i agree with casual skaters like it doesnt matter if you mall grab as long as you ride you're a skater
Half of these i can say I've never heard of lmao what do you mean certain balance stances are "cheating"??? Skateboarding is a sport, it makes you move, it makes you sweat, and you have to dedicate time if you want to be good at whichever discipline you practice.
I've always worn a helmet, even when I just rode a cruiser to school, hospital visits are expensive, man.
As far as brands go, the only brand I'll ever be faithful to is Indy trucks, everything else is trash
Idk why there is still a debate on "Is Skateboarding A Sport" it is, plain and simple. You are doing a physical activity, you purchase equipment, you practice, you get hurt, it has a large following, it had major events, it goes to an Olympic level
This is one of those things that makes me appreciate how things work in this side of the lake, on hispanic skate communities you don't find this sort of "i don't have anything to complain so i'll complain anyways" mentality i see on US communities, maybe because over here is not that popular and common but we even tend to befriend bikers and rollers, i use a long board and still learning to use a skateboard but all the people i met are always so kind and willing to help, something i barely hear to happen in US, from what i've heard these past 2 months, if anything, i would be hated and looked as a poser, i don't blame the skating community as a whole, but the way things work over there
USA longboarders talk shit and are the ones looking for conflict they assume they have to flex more edgy to normal skateboarders, i try my best to ignore them. They lack humility and respect. They are just an evolution of the rollerblader.

I definitely get the ear pods part.
I ride solo really, since I'm probably the only guy that skates in the neighborhood. But wearing ear pods are dangerous when cruising around on the road. It could kill you. I only wear ear pods when I go early morning cruise. Other than that, I don't recommend wearing it.
You should always be aware of your surroundings without needing to hear 🤦♂️ it's what your eyes are for, always keep checking behind and left and right.
Exactly how they teach you to drive a car, you never need any audio to drive a car so why would you need to on a board?
Your opinion is awful 🤦♂️🤡
Every day Im cruising with earphones on full blast and I focus better that way, my friends do this as well so what the f are u talking about??
Cope, will listen to whatever shit I want.
Why is the pads thing even a debate? As someone who's taken up skating again as a hobby in their 30s after 20 years, I can't run the risk of getting bodied on the bottom of a concrete ramp and putting myself out of work for weeks, unlike when I was younger where I could throw myself around without a care in the world.
I'd say skateboarding is a sport. If you look at those gymnastic performances (I don't know the names; moving around on the beam or a horizontal pole, dancing with a sash or ball, etc), no-one is forcing a scoring criteria on it. You could realistically freestyle them too and they are considered as sports.
6:41 skateboarding like bowling, requires technical skill built up through practice. I believe that’s what makes it a sport. Not the competition but the act of training itself
Am a scooter but I don't know why I still watch skating videos.
Love you all skaters and scooters
6:19 is my local skatepark also called riverwalk or Bradenton skatepark. been going there for a while to skate pretty chill people the environment is a little bad but really good park imo.🤘🤘❤❤
The thing about wearing a helmet is, people can potentially just trip and die anytime anywhere just walking around on flatground if they take a nasty enough fall right to their dome. So should people be wearing a helmet every time they step outside to take a walk? Skaters don't wear helmets or pads not because they are trying to get an adrenaline rush from the danger factor... it's because landing on your head is just not a significant risk. In fact, skaters are probably even LESS likely while skating than average people are just walking around to have some horrible fall where a helmet would save them, because skaters while skating are CONSTANTLY thinking about and maintaining their balance, while every possible person walking around anywhere is not necessarily focusing on and being ready to recover their balance should they trip or take some sort of stumble
There is also the factor of pads actually making things MORE dangerous potentially, because it gives people more confidence to try more and more dangerous things because they have the illusion of being more protected. Not wearing a helmet keeps people grounded and not hucking themselves off things they know they aren't ready for
There's a lot of old skaters now, We have all broken bones and have the aches and pains every morning, So yeah, we wear pad and helmets on the park. I really encourage my son to d the same. I'd prefer he both gets to skate and does not have all the problems I have from having to replace both kneecaps. Don't like the look, it's fine, that's why skate paints are so baggy. Wear your pads under your pants. But use your pads and helmets when your pushing it. Skating has history now, and learning from history is good thing.
I am an older skaters myself. I can't afford an injury.
I don't think it matters what you do or what you wear like helmets and designer shoes unless you don't affect other people
Man I loved skating with headphones!!! I'd really get into it!
It's so funny cause back then, digital music wasn't around. So I was constantly praying for a cd player that didn't skip. And today it's not a issue. Lol....
I will typically wear knee pads and a helmet when trying new things. It give me a safety net and confidence to try new things.
I wear helmet and hand and elbow pads I don't wear knee bc my knee pads are too small because I hit my growth spurt
skiing is a sport snowboarding is a sport therefore skateboarding is a sport
Love your video’s so much❤️
Half the time my AirPods are not even on/out of battery but it helps me stay focused. I choose wisely when to skate with and when without headphones. I purposely PUT THEM ON to avoid small talk when I am in the middle of getting my mindset right.
6:39 in a way, it is a sport in my opinion because it’s very physically active and it is technically exercising in a way
***Opinion*** (sorry for the mistake I speak French)
1:earbuds are ok, as long as it's not too loud (you should be able to hear other people). Music can really boost your mood in a skate session.
2:designers cloth should not be skated, they are ugly,useless and not practical.
3: skateboarders can be sponsored by any company, money is money and if you are not interested in the brand that is sponsor, just don't buy it.
4:yes it's a trick, and it's really cool.
5:the brands probably get their products from only a few factories and better or worse product is just a mental thing.
6:yes it's a sport because it's in the Olympics, you sweat, you can lose weight,you work with your body and wikipedia says it's a sport (and they never lie😂)
7:you can cross pinch your grind, it's just a way to make them easier and they are not feeble grind.
8: gatekeeping shouldn't be a thing people can see if your a real skater but poser are not skater, they are on another group.
9:just invent a name for the trick if you argue or do it in skate 3 and check the name of it😂
10:pads are a bit too extreme but helmet should not be hated. The "cool danger" of skating should not be glorified. If you don't wear pads the worst that can happen is that you scratch your knees or elbows but If you don't wear a helmet, you could die. Plus, for the "non-cool" factor of a helmet just depends on you, I have one (no shit) and it got like 100+ real skate stickers that I got overs the years so you really just have to customize it to make it look way better and people will stop bothering about it.
Mec t'es bon en anglais tkt
Disagree with the brands being different even if they are from the same factory all these board have differences per what the company wants
How are pads extreme but a helmet isn’t? Is it extreme I don’t wanna open up my knees and elbows after a fall? How about wearing protection is just smart but it doesn’t matter wether you wear it or not, it’s just personal preference
Pads are extreme? My knees have been saved a ton of abuse by wearing knee pads. My wrists aren't sprained partly due to my wrist guards and being able to fall to my knees. Even for the disastrous slam when I get hung on the coping, I would MUCH rather take that with pads on than none.

@@thepieisalieofficial pads can be helpful in some case but a lot of skater dont really fall on their knees. Hurting your knees Is not fun, but hurting your head can be wayyy more harmful(☠️)
Rn im loving skating learned how to ollie over up and off curbs
Don't mind me, just an inline skater passing through
Skating is a sport , just not a organized one like football, skating is a freestyle sport , just like other sports you have to practice to get better , you can get injured, it’s fun for some people, and it’s requires being physically active
I allways put one headphone off, but i can't imagine skating alone without music.
I’ve been waiting all day for this!
Love ur videos, keep up the good work
thanks dude!
i sometimes wear one headphone with quiet music seeing as i skate alone always but when im cruising on the road i dont wear any headphones, only when im doing tricks and practising things that only require a small area of the road
I decided to buy a helmet, because without it I just won't commit to do any tricks.
I only started skating in 1988, so I haven’t been in the game too long. But my two cents is that one of the things that makes skateboarding awesome is that it can be whatever the individual wants it to be. Beyond basic etiquette when you’re skating around other people, I don’t think anything else really matters. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but that’s all it is. Just an opinion. My opinion: shut up and skate.
🤠🤘
I'd say you've been in the game longer than the goons judging people for not playing by their gatekept rules have been alive
Falling off my board sometimes keeps me away from skating for like a week now cause I'm old. Pads help you skate more once you're old man
6:44 ok but what bout the other grinds? Where only the board touches the rail or when you're directly in the middle of the trucks without touching either tire? (I don't know the trick names)
Am i a casual if i use a skateboard just to go from a to be? In my city public transport is really busy in summertime. So i bought a cruiser to travel from college to home. And i only got kicked of my board one time from like a year ago when i started using the board.
If skateboarding isn’t a sport i guess skiing isn’t either, or skeet shooting, or mountain biking, or motocross, or even most sports because a lot of sports require physical activity but don’t need a scoring system to play them or partake in them
I grew up being a core, poor, skater and im kinda more on the traditional skater side with some of these tricks some of these tricks just look like "flip your board as hard as you can and just try to land back on it" and some how thats a new trick but cant even name it.
New skaters should be welcomed if they actually have an interest in the activity and like to skate/want to improve. A certain degree of gatekeeping is necessary for the people who don’t actually respect skating/do it as a trend
Damn. The layers just keep adding up. I ride goofy 90% of the time, but I only push in switch, so basically regular mongo, I guess? And now you're telling me I lock grinds in backwards on top of all that 😂
I love skating it’s winter right now for me so it warms me up
u @ the north pole?
No
@@SkateBox nah fr like where is it snowin 💀

If someone is wearing airpods and skateboarding that doesn't mean that person doesn't want to listen to anyone and do their own thing it means that,that person doesn't want to be interrupted its the person,s own time and afcourse the person who,s dancing and skateboarding is not serious about skateboarding
I like the girl and chocolate comparison. You should do a video on all the brother and sister companies of skateboards like habitat alien workshop zero and mystery. Just a suggestion.
Great video!
Thanks!
Every skateboarder is equal in skateboarding. It doesnt matter if its just an hobby to you or if you wear pads/airpods.
I have a friend who always skates with earbuds, but it helps him focus better, but he usually skates by himself.
Here’s my thing abt some of this stuff 1 one earbud is fine two no 2 “selling out “ in skating is apart of being a pro in any sport like rob dyrdek gets more hate than he needs he’s really smart actually 3 designer clothes is ppls choice idc at all
Edit with earbuds u don’t have to socialize at parks but u need to be able to hear ur surroundings
5:50 In my opinion, it is a sport. It is a physical activity, and a sport does not require a scoring system.
I would always stick one headphone in while i was tricking then take it out when i stopped moving, always skate better with a beat, but agree with the social thing.
Wear what you want to skate, even skate brands can be pretty pricey these days, as long as you're happy to tear up your expensive clothes when you slam what is it to anyone else, i generally wear old stuff to skate🤙
Nosegrind and Crooked grind are 2 different tricks
Skateboarding is an extreme sport 🤷♂
Cross pinch is just people doing sketchy grinds, people who nail the tricks properly will stand out 🤙
I wear pads now i'm older, I have taken a few too many blows to the head over the years and working in stores sucks with the injuries that come from skating, that and i have bills to pay, the gear keeps me rolling with confidence and i actually push it harder because of them 🤙
I almost always wear a helmet but sometimes i take it of for flatground. I think Andy Anderson is one of the best skaters rn and his helmet looks cool.
And also pls dont use earbuds while you are sharing the park. But if you are having a solo session you should be able to do whatever you want
Not so long ago at the skatepark in my country, kid died because of not wearing a helmet.
Not his fault, because some other dude cut him off, but it could be just minor accident, not death
IMO wear what you, skate how you want, when you want, and don’t hate on other people. We’re all banned together by this shared love. The only exception is someone who just carries a board around to look cool, if you genuinely enjoy skating, put effort into learning and getting better you’re all good in my book.
Helmet and protective gear is important if your learning and your not comfident if you can land a trick or like if your a beginer
10 THINGS SKATEBOARDERS SHOULD NEVER DO
Goes on to list 10 things SKATEBOARDERS do lol
Honestly I've taken up longboarding in the last year and I really like it. But my next board is definitely gonna be a skateboard. And IDC if anyone looks down on me for wearing elbow/knee pads. I ain't taking those off for no one 🤣
Have fun in your c0(/sucker shoes
hey skate box is it accepable to be wearing pads when your parents force you to?
8:18 got me dead lmao!
I always wear these 2 zoo York shirts and ripped jeans or planes shorts would that be like me thinking I look cool or stuff cause I don’t want to come off like any of these stuff
I started skating during the core era I specifically remember how skaters would judge other skaters by the way they do a 5050 grind lol
After a quick comment scroll didn't see anyone explaining that the "krooked" grind controversy is bs from people that don't know what they are talking about when you do a ft krooks or krooked grind you lock the opposite wheel from a nosegrind backside nosegrind locks the toe side wheel krooked grind locks heelside wheel when you go for a nosegrind on a rail you may end up a little off but that's the trick you were trying so more controversy would be the 5.0 vs Salad vs Solid grinds but two of those never here about much anymore
Skate boarding is not just skate boarding is fun making new friends.
What’s wrong whiles listening to music with ear phones whiles skating ... what I can’t stand is that when a person walks past and say something stupid,which will put in curiosity of what did that person say ? And if your lucky it can shield you from stupid cussing and makes you a focus skater too, you not bombarded by critics or back talkers.
And other subject you forgot to mention ... are certain celebrities passionate about skateboarding or are they just posers too ? You might have said it but I could see it on this video .
the headphone one I don't understand. at least for me every one has a code. assume there using headphones. We all just wave at each other to get each others attention. Its always basic understanding that if your wearing earbuds you should always be aware of everything around you.
"the idea is that sports are physical activities that require a scoring system in order to play them but since skateboarding doesn't require a scoring system it's not actually a sport"
Okay by that logic nothing is a sport you can play basketball and not keep score little kid events do that all the time with the everybody's a winner attitude which I hate but that's a different topic you can play hockey you can play soccer you can play literally anything just for fun nothing requires a scoring system I use to play basketball just shooting hoops and such with friends not caring about scoring at all by that definition nothing is a sport because nothing nessacarily needs a scoring system the only time a scoring system is needed is if you want a winner but if you're just doing it for a winner and not because you just enjoy doing it then you really shouldn't be doing that hobby in the first place
lol @ andy roy 'core skaters' ..you got that right lol
I see professional skateboarding is a sport, but street skating is an art. I mean, you’re using your surrounding resources to make something of your own. That’s the creativity of skateboarding people are always coming up with new ways to skate.
Agree to disagree :)

The debate about if skateboarding is a sport or not people say there's no scoring system but isn't a game of skate a scoring system i know it's not required but it is a scoring system
Imagine not wanting strangers to talk to you.. how dare they 💀
Sliding the tail/nose on 5-0/nose grind should be separate tricks. Neither is wrong but they do function quite differently. It ads a manual when the board is not touching. Where as sliding is just the balance of the grind.
Got a PHD in Nascar & underwater basket weaving
I usually wear a Light Blue nike hoodie and some black nike sweatpants and my shoes are the Nike SB Adversary Premium Blues so idk if im one of those people who wear designer or not cuz idk if nike counts as designer so can i get some help in the comment section.
1st of all
in my opinion
every skater skates for their own reasons
so stop bashing skaters that can't do a 30 stair rail, or sutly, hating, or watever even small 5 stair rail or w/e
we all got a story, and therapy purposes and much more, that we all skate for
encourage one another, and love each other..
and we will all progress that way
God bless
OK THE BEST BARINGS ARE REDS AND BEST BORT IS SANTA CRUZ
U just have to put the kanye clip in every video😂
sport definition : an activity involving physical exertion and skill in which an individual or team competes against another or others for entertainment.
The sports debate, I would it is cause technically you don't need a scoring system to just ride around on the board just like you wouldn't for playing catch with a baseball or football or anything like that it's all that mixed with a scoring system and the game built around in, with that being said yes I would definitely consider skating a sport
I really don't care if it's a sport or not but I'm leaning towards not since a winner has to be determined based on opinions. Like how do you judge what the better trick was when the tricks were on completely different obstacles?
your videos are so well put together absolute masterpeices...the skate community wouldnt be the same without you. Keep it up!
A little dramatic.
@@mr.thammisses6119 not really but imagine being named "Mr.Tham Misses" dont even make sense
Also yiu have a picture of Nyjah wearing earbuds on the thumbnail. It's a picture from SLS where he's the only one in the park at the moment so he is totally ok to have an earbud in.
My thoughts are; why even bother how anyone else skates? Everyone got their own style, skateboarding is an art of expressing yourself, not you telling someone else how to ride. People who gatekeep or hates on another skater for no good reason should get a life and worry about their own sketchy ass. Imagine being that kind of turd. Ew.
Thats why this video is about a debate on skating
im a scooter rider but i like states too, i personally think both of them are sports tbh.
Ok a few things 1 earbuds are fine cause that how some people do their best skating also skateboarding is a sport and a sport isn't always about a point scoring system it's about skill and practice and if it's not a sport I want to see 1 person who has never touched a board in their life hit a bowl or do an Ollie or skate a vert ramp so all though not many people think it's not a sport it can be a sport
I've never been a fan of wearing earbuds for any physical activity but to each their own
I can’t skate with my earbuds in I’m not very good but I have a good ass Ollie I literally can’t do any ollies when I have earbuds in cuz I use the noise from the pop yo know when to lift my back foot and I’m super paranoid so I like to be aware of my surroundings
Bruh we have transparency mode nowadays we can definitely hear if we choose to and since when have skating been all about rules? and gatekeeping like this is one of the reasons why skating is dying, its enough that people are scared of going to skateparks let alone showing that they are correct on feeling that way. Do what you gotta do, its about you, and like John Hill said "who needs approval from assholes"
