SKATEBOARDING
skatbaordng?!?!?!?!? no.

THIS THREAD IS COMPATIBLE WITH:CRUISERS:
A cruiser is a skateboard that is not ment for doing POPSHUVITOLLIES but they are ment to ride around, get places.
They tend to be SUPER quiet, they dont make that RRRRRR sound when you're riding them, as for the wheels are huge.
Most skateboarders who like to film everything their dumb buddies do usually use them, because it doesn't disrupt the filming, so that you don't hear WHRRRRRR from two skateboards.
LONGBOARDS:
These skateboards are like cruisers, but longer and meant for downhill extreme riding.
STREET SKATEBOARDS:
they can be used for downhill, crusing, or doing INSANE ASS TRICKS KICKFLIP GRIND YEEEEEEEAH

Skateboarding and you
StartingIt looks like you're interested in the art/sport/activity/whatever you make it/past time of skateboarding! You're going to have tons of fun! But wait, before we get there, where can you start?
Proper equipmentSo if you're going to skate, you need the proper equipment, correct? First you need shoes, of course! Why? Because skateboarding shoes have a flat bottom, which is something you're going to need.
Common/Cheap skateboarding shoe brands that work well, and you probably may have:
Vans
DC
Globe
Nike 6.0s and Nike SBs
Now that we have the shoes, you're going to need to get something else, proper headgear/padding.
Kneepads, elbow pads, and all that is fine without, but a helmet is reccomended. Don't just walk into target and get a helmet, those are CHEAP. Quite cheap.
If you're buying online go
HereIf you're buying retail, go find a local skateshop on google maps, bing, whatever, if you can't find any, go out to a skatepark and ask a skater or two there where he/she got their gear.
Buying a skateboard: OnlineYou want to go
here and build your own prettyful board, sky's the limit, make one there, or
here.
Find what you like and get it.
Buying a skateboard: RetailGo find a skateshop and buy there. Its simple, really.
RULES:If you're going to come here to say "i tried skating i have a skateboard but i cant use it im so bad"
shut up.Unless you plan on starting again, I dont care. I will care if you use it.
If you're so bad,
practice.ETIQUETTEDO:
- When you see a pedestrian in the way of your spot/line, stop. Let them pass.
- If someone tells you to get out, and to not skateboard, get out.
If this individual is a pedestrian and not an authority/owner of the location you're skating in, tell them you dont care.
DON'T:
- Run from security. Agree to leave if they are the owner/authority
- Push people in your way.
- Be a massive richardhead
