Murs somed it up when he rapped about how its one of the few sports left that support indenpendence. I suck at riding, Ollie %50 of the time correct but that has never stopped me from me from always kickin round town. When they took my board away saying that it skating was for drug dealers, it didn't stop me, When i got beat down late one night, ruining my shoulder, cause i was a Skater That didn't stop me. Although i have never made any type of dent or impact on the sport as whole, I will never stop skating.
