For Those That Say I

For Those That Say I Endanger My Child: It's More Likely That You Will Fall While Walking On The Sidewalk Than I Will While Skating With My Daughter.

I Think Skateboarding Is Better Now In Terms Of The Amount Of Facilities And The Amount Of Support Young Skaters Have - Including Encouragement From Their Parents. There Was Definitely An Element To It When I Was Younger That Was Exclusive And Kind Of Rebellious Because Most Parents Didn't Want Their Kids Skating. They Thought It Was A Bad Influence.

I Think That The Board Is A Lot More Intuitive Than People Assume. You Get On It And All You Have To Do Is Put One Foot On The Tail And One Foot On The Nose And Rock It Up And Down And That Will Get You Into The Tricks Or Wheelies Or Manuals. It's Not About The Balance So Much As It Is About The Timing.

I Won't Quit Skating Until I Am Physically Unable.

I Believe That People Should Take Pride In What They Do, Even If It Is Scorned Or Misunderstood By The Public At Large.
