The thing that always gets your mind off of things. It will
always be there for you when your friends aren’t there for you. Skateboarding
has many things to come. There is so many things to do so many things to try
but at the end it is all about taking risks. There are always those times where
you are too scared to try something but no one realizes that there is a big
prize at the end and it is a great reward of satisfaction. If you fall just get
back up and keep trying at everything that you want to accomplish. Skateboarding
has got me off of everything from the worst to the best. Just let the breeze
take you down the hill and have a great ride. There will always be those times
where you will be going fast and you will get a lot of adrenaline, it’s the
best feeling in the world. Skateboarding is more than just a piece of wood and
wheels, it is a form of art in my perspective.
Many people might mistaken all the people who skate because they are
known to be a bad influence. They are wrong because when u skateboard u make
many friends and conversations with them. Skating is an art to me because it
takes a lot of effort and meaning. For example if you are trying to do a
specific trick you have to really concentrate and position your body and your
feet on the board correctly or a numerous of things can go wrong but also a
numerous of things can go good for u. Skateboarding is all about trying new
things and taking a lot of risks. On the other side it can be a dangerous sport
if u make it one. The way you can make it dangerous is by doing the extreme.
For example jumping big sets of stairs. It takes a lot of effort because you
have to really think about what you are going to do before you do it. It is
also good for your health because you are doing exercise while you are pushing
and jumping. There are many tricks and techniques that you can learn and
master. Skateboarding is not just a hobby it’s a sport to me because it has a
big impact in my life and most of my friends lives. If I didn’t have
skateboarding I don’t know what I would be doing right now. Skateboarding has
got me out of many bad things. Everyone should have a chance to at least try
skateboarding so they can feel the adrenaline and the breeze that hits their
face when they are going down a hill. Skateboarding has done a lot for me and I
want it to do a lot of everyone that trys it and that does it for a hobby or a
sport. Skateboarding is almost like life to me. I hope all of you that are
reading this will have a chance to try it and enjoy it thanks.
Ok that sounds like the craziest dream ever, i like how you mention as if god was punishing you makes it sound way moire serious than it was, but it added to the craziness.

ReplyDeleteI liked how you shared your own experience with skateboarding but as well used it to encourage others to pursue things they love because it can change a lot about you. With each sport or hobby you try there are always going to be risks but it can tell you that even though it takes a long time to master, it is worth the practice and blood sweat because one may come out stronger. Great job!
I like this story because it tells you to keep trying and even if you don't succeed the first time you keep trying again and this lesson can go with anything in life so good job.

I use to skateboard a lot, but I eventually lost interest. Either way, I agree with what you said when you got to try hard to achieve something, and then you feel satisfied when you finally do it. It's a really good message.
ReplyDeleteOscar that was a really good story. You and Alex were the ones that got me Into it and I have the same feeling when your going down a hill feeling the adrenaline. Good story Oscar.
ReplyDeleteI really liked this story, it tells you not to give up and keep trying. Good Job!

Being a bit involved in punk music, skateboarding was a huge thing that connected to it. Although I don't really skate, I've always been interested in the views of skaters who see it more as a piece of wood, grip tape, and wheels. Keep doing what you do because skateboarding seemsto take you to a different place in your mind where your whole perspective of the world changes.
ReplyDeleteGreat story and good message. I liked how you talked about trying and trying again till you succeed and how you connected skateboarding to everyday life.

Ah skateboarding! What a great passion you have for it, most people just do it as a casual thing and to look cool, but I can see that you truly genuinely love it and adapt it to your daily life. It truly is a form of art and I respect that. Great read!

This piece was very entertaining, explaining a hobby for those that don't understand it. You can really feel the passion for this sport because of the imagery and emotions scattered throughout this piece. A job well done writing this piece!
ReplyDeleteI like how the story showed a passion for an understatement. It is really relatable which caught my interest. It's like how Tony Hawk is so passionate about skating people see it as a casual thing. So nice job and keep doing what you love best.
