| I grew up in the crappy town of Bath(meaning no fun, lots of old people, and nowhere to skate) I was a daredevil ever since I was a little kid. I used to take my little tykes scooter and jump off our couches trying to do "spins that make me pukey". In 5th grade I discovered in-line skating. My dad and I built tons of ramps too. I was good, and I still am, but when I was in 7th grade, I broke my wrist. Not being able to do anything with my hand, me and my mom went and bought my first board(an X-Games board which I later turned into a makeshift Birdhouse board) After I broke the thing in half trying to ollie a boulder like rock(and my parents seeing how much fun I was having, not to mention keeping me busy), I decided I wanted to get a real board. A World Industries board from CCS. Now you have to understand, I got it last January and living in New York, you get the picture. I waited until the foot of snow dried, and I rode every day(still do). Now, I have a full-fleged skatepark in my backyard, 2 boards, and an increasing trick book. I love this sport, art,or hobbie, whatever you want to call it, and I will continue to do it until I am old and dusty. |
