What a great day...

I know this has nothing to do with skateboarding but I just really wanted to talk about my amazing day! So today I went snowboarding with my friend at Dagmar. I learned a bunch of new stuff I've never done before but I ended up spraining my wrist. Yay me! so on my way home I decided to call my work and let them know that I wouldn't be able to come in tonight because I was in to much pain. So guess what. One of my bosses did not like that and I got fired. So you can tell my day went very great(note the sarcasm. So now I've got no job, a sprained wrist, and to top it all off, I think I bruised my toes on my left foot. That's my amazing day for you guys. Make sure to check my blog on Tuesday for my special post!

Old school!






So last night while laying in bed I got an idea for a blog post. I wanted to write about old school skateboarding, back when skateboarding first started. I really envy the old ways of skating. Its what lead to present day skating.But old school skating is very different from what it is today. As you can see on the picture I posted with this post this is what they used to do while they skated unlike the present day skater that you see everywhere. Skateboarding started back in the 1950`s. The boards were oddly shaped with very large wheels to coast around. Today they are shapped all the same way wheels are the exact same and trucks are the same to so. Thats why skateboarding back in the day really gets my respect.
