Skateboarding?
clockworkjames:
I also had a mountain board, mine had no brake.
Strapping yourself to a wooden board then rolling down a hill seemed like a good idea at the time but one of the trucks broke and I tumbled.
So I took the trucks off and used it as a makeshift snowboardthatcouldnotturn until I got a snowboard :)

These statements are both accurate-ish. I don't skate much since I got concussed... I still snowboard all the time though.
I can still ollie but that's about as far as I got. Ramp skating is super fun times though, I should learn to drop in properly!
carrotosaurus:
The first time I tried mountain boarding I ended up almost needing stitches. It's something I'd really like to get into but I'm freakin clumsy.
Chesire Cat:
Scabs and bruises = good times. Bruises on brain? Academic good times!

I used to skateboard quite a lot.
Then I went to the Holy Land (i.e. Canada) and discovered longboarding.
It is now my favorite pastime for when there is no snow or I am not in it.
Thus, i skate- or longboard pretty much year-round.
I've got a Chiquita skateboard which I have never used because the graphics on it are too good to spoil, a no-name skateboard with shot trucks which I only use when it's raining, a Sector 9 swallow tail longboard with kryptonite wheels and a Flexdex fiberglass board with 70 mm flashbacks. Which is my favorite.
People that bash an entire culture or movement based on the incoherence of some of its language have _way_ better targets than skateboarding. I think it should stop.
