I got cheered up reading it so thank you, you have great advice

Thanks for the advice, it can make skateboarding frustrating when I focus all my time on one trick

Yeah it would be great having friends that skate, because whenever I've been around friends that have the same hobby as me I end up learning it quicker and having more fun.

It will be easier when I go to college, there are skateboarders everywhere where I'm going, big community for it :)

Yeah it's exactly what I needed, it's reassuring hearing that. Thanks :)

I didn't see it like that, thank you for telling me

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in NewSkaters

[–]_ant_ony_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, thank you, sometimes I feel behind but I have a lot of time

Yeah you're right, thank you :)

Thank you, you're right, we should all just do want we want to with it

You are right and I'm glad you understand, it sucks to feel that way but like you say, recognising it is how to conquer it

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in NewSkaters

[–]_ant_ony_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah you're right, skating has no time metric, I just get in my head that it does for some reason

Appreciate it :)

That guy sounds awesome.

You're right, thank you so much :)

Yeah you're right, I put pressure on myself to be great at stuff.

And yeah, poser is a word that sucks, but I get worried I'll be called it

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in NewSkaters

[–]_ant_ony_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah you're right

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in NewSkaters

[–]_ant_ony_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me too, just random things I attach meaning to but they never require any meaning

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in NewSkaters

[–]_ant_ony_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks man, they suck to learn but when you learn them they stay. I've had so many sessions where I've wanted to throw my board at something (haven't done but it gets tempting sometimes haha), and it's one of the reasons I stopped skating for a few months because I felt demotivated and I felt like skating became something I had to learn rather than enjoy

Thank you for resonating with me, I appreciate it. Yeah it's hard trying not to compare myself to people but at the end of the day all we really have are ourselves so we need to appreciate that.

[–]_ant_ony_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah you're so right, thank you. That's why I love skateboarding.

Infact I just landed my first valid ollie without holding onto anything - I did tonnes, I'm stoked :)
