The griptape rips. The trucks clank. The smell of urethane is in the air. It's a skateboard that puts all these things into one great dream-maker. It's a blessing for me and I love doing it. First of all, there are many places that I go to skateboard. The usual is the loading docks downtown that are filled with grass gaps and ledges. When I get the chance to, I get a ride down to the skatepark to hone my abilities.I'm out with the team often to have some fun, so we ride in the streets with the cars looking for spots. During the winter season where the snow covers the concrete, I practice flatground in my basement. Another question is for what do I skate for. It is a way to travel that requires almost no energy, except when I need to go uphill. I do it for fun, yet it is a major sport that keeps me healthier and stronger. When I skate for myself, I feel more accomplished and it brightens up my day. I can never wait for the euphoric adrenaline rush that comes with skateboarding. Lastly, there are also reasons as to why I do it. It is an independent sport with nobody to rely on but myself. Skating is the best way I know to express myself. It is a very fun sport. On days that I'm not feeling very happy, I just go ride and feel better about myself. Skateboarding has done a lot for me. I get many good things out of it. That's what keeps me going.
