when the board does a 180 but you stay in the same position. the "pop" part means it leaves the ground

i tried, and i failed. skating just isn't for me. i'll stick to my hardcore walking skills.

i started to learn how to skate last summer but then at the end of the year we were having a fire behind one of my friends house and we needed some more fire wood so we decided to burn my board...it was pretty funny though. at least they had the courtacy of taking the trucks off

You won't look like an ass. Your a girl so just for showing your face in the park everyone will think your cool.

O and i can do 180 to stall japan with massive tweak, than 360 off. Pretty hardcore.

I'm getting a skateboard soon.

Freestyle walking dominates. The only problem is it's too hard to run backwards so you're sort of limited on tricks. Sliding little wood handrails is the most fun though.
