Idk if it is still like this but most skateboarders were cool and openminded when i used to skate and would help people learn stuff rather than make fun of them but it has also been like 20 years. also don't push mongo or hold your skateboard by the trucks.
This is how I gained the cool older boys’s trust my freshman year of high school… one of those cool older boys was @YABOYBAGS, my best friend of 12ish years. We used to skate golf courses after school and now we golf every weekend :)
skating is the greatest thing to ever exist. the culture of it completely changed society as we know it. it didn't get to blossom into what it could be because the man shut it down.
