It's without a doubt the gnarliest sport.

It's the best way to spend your time.

It's when you can turn your brain off and just do

without having to worry about the consequences. 

When the wind blows through your hair like a fan,

when being broken and bloodied is normal. 

When current struggles don't matter, just the next trick. 

It's how life-long friends are created.

It's how you get to the gas station for milk. 

It's the feeling of ultimate freedom, no rules, no right and wrong way to do things.

Just have fun!

When you skate pain means you're doing something right.

When you find someplace someone thinks is trash, and you make it into something you cherish. 

When your clothes are ripped, and your skin is torn, but the sport never disappoints. 

It's the constant "Pop", "Crack" when you land a trick.

When it stays with you, and never leaves. 

There are many things in life I take for granted, but skating is not one.
