I just don't understand why kids would choose a method of transport that they suck at riding. I see kids who can't push, have no control over where they're going, can't exceed 5mph on flat ground. Like why wouldn't you just ride a bike if you're trying to get somewhere. I mean they'll get good eventually, it's not hard just to ride around slowly. But maybe consider getting comfortable before riding to class?
But some of them have no idea that cars are behind them or whatever. I occasionally skate somewhere, and I don't ride in front of cars or do stupid stuff. It's impolie, like bikers who try to ride with traffic but are slow as hell. You're not a car, don't act like one.
And it should be noted that there's a difference between broseph riding to class in his sandals and actually going fast and "real" longboarding.
