Yea man skateboarding is hella fun. I live in a urban area where people dont skateboard and to others it wasnt cool. So at first when I got into it people use to say " you gonna be on scared or HEY WHITE BOI". But now since I got better and people know that I skate alot now I got respect, the girls love it, the gangstas give me positive things about life and tell that what im doing is good and dont live the life they live. But yea skateboarding is awsome.
@DCrider97 Real talk. All black skaters and their parents should see this video. Especially the 1s who started skating before 2008-2009. Cause I see now skateboarding is being invaded by kids who skate for all the wrong reasons(reasons other than pure love)
@fashobro88 okay this vid is how ppl racist bout being black and skating, now im just sayin no disrespect but u made that sound like some sexist shit, cuz girls can skate 2 so deal with it
I admire anyone who can skate; it's such a hard sport to do.
I can't believe that some people are that ignorant to think that skating - or any other sport/activity for that matter - is just for one race. It's scary, and I'm glad these guys spoke about it in the video.
I think this is really awesome. It's disgusting to hear about people getting shunned because they do something different. When will people get skin colour is just that. I mean sure there are cultures. But hell I eat Chinese food and I ain't Chinese. Mix it up a little!
LOL If I was them I'd kinda like the fact that posers try to skate because of that rap song. While the posers are breaking their arms and falling on their asses, these guys can laugh at them while they shred the pavement doing crazy tricks.
same here, i got the ballance of a frigging quarter, any sport that puts wheels under my feet = ass bruse. so i say if you got what it takes to skate well, go for it, so long as you have fun.
this video was mainly on the east coast... when i used to skate there weren't any problems like the ones in the video. but maybe the west coast is different?
Jackie Robinson, Tiger Woods, Arther Ashe were also told that their sports was for white people only. Go on guys, Do you!!! It's a shame that OUR own people put you down for doing something positive. I guess that they would rather have you in gangs or something. Personally I think that a black Tony Hawk would be outstanding.
See, i know a lot a guys who skate who are total dueches tho. These guys are pretty awesome on the other hand. Besides, those dueches i know only wish they were THIS good.
@itsalljustasham It doesn't matter Lupe wrote a song for all skaters and if your life in someway didn't relate to that song (not taking away from what u do or know) maybe u don't love skating or don't actually live the life of a skateboarder. Oh and Kareem Campbell is my MLK in the skateboarding world.(not literally though)
