Bowling or skating is fun.  Do something kind of active.

Ok well, believe me i know what im talkin about. I think you do need skateboarding shoes... I have been skating for about 5 years... and i can NEVER get near enough the same... just good grip with reugular gym shoes. It makes it basically impossible to ollie at all. Skating shoes pretty much work all the same, i pick whatever looks the best... but i recently found out that DC shoes are more for showing off then actual skating... But ya... I think you do definetly need skating shoes...\n\nAlso, once you start wearing them, you will find out that skating shoes are MUCH more comfartable than regular shoes...

you need to find an indoor skate park so you can practice when it snows, you sound pretty good but you need to practice all the time because proskating is a hard buiness to come by, you have to find people that will sponsor you. one of my friends was sponsored at thirteen and he's really good so keep practicing!

I've been skateboarding for over 20 years now. I can't imagine my life without it.  It has taken me all over the place and I have met all kinds of people.  It has allowed me to live my dream of owning a skateshop, skatepark and a mailorder company.  I now make my own line of skateboard products.\n\nHow can you not love something and give back to something that has given you so much of your life?

i haven't skated many blanks but i thought the blank decks from www.ccs.com are really good. they're cheap and they're really light. i dont know about durability though but i liked the one i skated.

Well, Yahoo! Answers is still in beta-testing. New categories are added regularly. All you have to do to suggest one is to click on the "Tell us what you think" link at the bottom of the page to submit your suggestion. I know amateur wrestling has been suggested before, and the team has said they're considering it, so with a couple more requests it could get its own category soon.

yea, but its also cool to like grab your board in like in the middle in the front and in the middle in the back and hop and bring the board with you, that can work great and you can get really good at it too...

Only those that have the answers seem to reply those that don't have a clue come up with the prior ones, your slightly to young to remember when Santa Cruz Go Skate (skate shop) was first started, but the best never rest & Keith Butterfield, The Lint Boys, & BioBob were the BEST skaters around.  Just remember, there are NO stupid questions only stupid answers-GranMaSkater that still uses her BavarianSuedeKryptos to this day-SkateRatsRule2TotallyNarly

Most skateboards like to surf because most skaters live along the coastline which means their peer group is into surfing. I would think snowboarding would be easier to learn tho.

I sk8board, surf, snowboard and grab big air. It's totally rad dude. When I lived in Hawaii I used to cliffjump into the ocean. That was a major adrenaline rush! Really scary too, cuz you might y'know do a belly flop or land on your back or hit the reef under da water. So friggin' awesome. Go try it, you won't regret. And pick up Sk8boarding, it's great! Aloha brah!
