funny skateboarding video
That was totally amazing and I love what street skaters do. I do have a problem watching them live because they bail 90% of the time. I just watched the Maloof Cup and it was an hour of bails. I think street skating should be on video only because they bail so much. Biff, I am curious if you have a problem watching skateboarding? I ask because I posted a video of skateboarding and you did not seem to like it. I personally identify a lot more with skateboarders than inliners. Most of us oldschool rollerskaters grew up skating with skateboarders. I love watching skateboarding and love skateboarding myself. I did inline skate in 1992 right before it became popular. It was cool because I skated on my inlines the way I skated on my rollerskates. I appreciate what these inliners do, but it would be so cool if they progressed our sport instead of made a new sport. I did what they do and it is all the same on vert.

None at all! Depends on the skateboarder. I also say a lot of things tongue in cheek, and people always think I'm being negative. I try to add the stuck out tongue to show that I'm being sarcastic. :P

I think that what you are talking about, though, is that time you posted a bunch of videos of you skating...when mostly it was your skateboarding friends. I had wanted to see more of you rollerskating. Sitting through a bunch of skateboard videos is OK, but I prefer watching skateboard videos on youtube. When I come here, I prefer seeing roller skaters.

That being said, I do not mind you posting skateboard videos, as long as I know I'm about to watch a bunch of skateboarding.

 Biff, it's funny that I wrote that probably at the same time you were writing about what a cool video it was. lol
