I'm excited for filming skateboarding and longboarding. But ima wait a lil while to longboard again. Took a turn way to fast last week swerved 3 times then slammed my head on the concrete. Thankfully I did not get a concussion.

Skate year round, get excited for snow season, then when snow season ends continue to skateboard.

I'm a skateboarder first and always will be.

Praise be to Animal Chin.

I just got a penny cruiser and am super stoked to skate around on that. Also the trusty skateboard will see some use.

true story, but in the winter if there's snow on the ground skateboarding doesn't happen.

Just getting back into it after having quit for about a year. This is the second time I have quit and am trying to get back into it in a pretty short span of time. I have lost almost everything. I hate relearning everything, but it feels so nice to be back on a board.

Problem is that I stopped skating for an extended period of time twice. The first time around I stopped skating again before I got everything back. Now its just worse. Even my flatground sucks. It is frustrating because my nollie heels are about as consistent as my kickflips right now (and my nollie heels aren't very consistent).
