Since its National Skateboarding Day tomorrow, I thought I'd raise the question, Anyone here skate? I've been skating for a good 6 years though I need a new deck right now, At the moment I currently have a 7.5 REAL deck.

I used to in middle school. I still have my deck and lately I've been dying to get back into it. I know the feeling, dude. I've been on a break for 3 years and only got back into in 2 months ago. Its pretty difficult to get back to the level of skating I used to do since theres not as many spots and I'm pretty impatient. |

I broke my ankle a 2 weeks ago, went to land a varial heel and my ankle popped as my foot landed toe downward. This being my first broken bone I suspected it was a sprain and tried to jerk it around and continue skating. I wore a plaster cast for a week and smashed the heel skating (I managed to fit my airwalk shoe over the cast). Now I pretty much have a strapped cast but I'm able to take it off and I can surprisingly still skate a bit.

I always felt the need to get back into it but unfortunately the natural ability to maintain my balance on the board to begin with just isn't on my agenda for some reason or another. I was find skateboarding to be a exhilarating experience though which is one of the main reasons why I still would like to pursue it again and really put some practice into full throttle.

I just want to get back into it to learn a few more basic tricks I never could get down. |

I used to skateboard a lot but I was horrible at it. I just use my skateboard as transportation now. Although I did learn how to ollie within the first week of picking up my skateboard again. I am pretty proud of that ;3

 Pictures don't really show all of it, its quite a biggish part. Theres a manual pad near the entrance. With the transitional drop ins, its pretty cool. The left of the picture is actually a steep grind rail but it seems to have not been seen well. There was actually a ton of people and some old friends I had seen again, pretty good day. |

Hell yeah, been Skating consistently for just over two years now, with the longest break being about three weeks when I broke my hand about a month ago, even then I was all over my friend's decks, it's all I want to do.
