Skateboarding is a sport that seems to have popped into existence in the sixties and become very popular. My son-in-law skates and here is a photo of him today at the local skate park.
Wow! He's into all the acrobatics! I skateboarded as a kid in Los Angeles, but it was all very tame flat concrete action. I think we looked at it as a substitute for surfing until we grew up a bit.
ha ha well i have been skateboarding again for about 6 years now. It was something i did as a youth in the late 70's early eighties then with the building of the skatepark in our nieghborhood i started again. I am 42 years old.
wow! As a skateboarder, i know that it is pretty hard to get back into skating after that long, great job! I am always impressed by older people who can still rip, it gives me hope that i wont have to quit one day. Nice pic, and keep it up!

ReplyDeleteI am rubbish at skateboarding. Give me surfing, at least you fall in the water instead of concrete!
ReplyDeleteWhat an excelent action shot. How long has he been skateboarding? - this doesn't look like a beginner move.
ReplyDeleteha ha
