Hey there everyone that somehow ended up on this page! This is my favorite part of the site. I am not a big basketball fan, I rarely have seen a soccer game, and I have never been to a tennis match.....not to say these sports are bad or boring, they're just not my style.
I grew up in a skating family. My mom skateboarded to school when she was younger and my older brother, Blair, was a skater too. Rollerblading was my first real love (I know, I know). I have been doing it as long as I can remember, but it was really my older brother who got my into skateboarding.
My older brother would beat the s**t out of me when I was a kid, but in my eyes he was the coolest person in the world. He taught me how to Ollie, turn, and do other stuff. Ever since then I have loved all X-treme sports. I would watch them on television, I would watch the skaters and bikers at the skate parks, I even subscribed to Transworld Skateboaring in 8th grade. I thought it was all awesome.
When I got to high school I realized that the only other people who enoyed my sport were guys and poser chicks, who skated to date skaters. That pissed me off. Do you know what it's like to tell someone you like to skate and have them not only laugh at you and tell you you're only doing it for the guys, but then began to ask you 1,000,000 questions about the sport (as if the entire sport was a trivia game)
It is true, I am not the best skateboarder in the world, nor am I the worst. I would never skate for the guys because I already love the sport, who cares about the guys that like it? Hey, most of them are pot-heads anyway (this is said with lots of love) and are more concerned with skating (which is the way it should be)
Anyway, back to whatever I was talking about before......oh yeah.......well, high school does not pay much attention to X-treme sports. I can understand why, but that still leaves all the people that do enjoy them out in the cold (hehe...snowboarders...out in the cold...get it...OH, NEVERMIND!)
Chances are most of you have not even read this far down, but if you have....GOOD FOR YOU! Well, these pages are for you. I really hope you like them. If you see something that you think is really cool or you would like to see something else on a certain page or even if you would like to WRITE for a certain page (You would have to know the sport pretty well.........) e-mail us at: The_Mason_Revolutionary@yahoo.com |
