i used to, like Alien did.
Tony Hawk Pro Skater on the Playstation back in 1999 got me into skateboarding.
It got a shitload of teenagers into skateboarding.
my problem was I ride goofy but made the mistake of learning ollie without actually riding
instead i just learned to ollie standing in place
so when i started skating, i couldn't ollie, but nollie.
i pretty much gave up after that. maybe i should've kept going.
also for those familiar with it, I helped build the flat top pyramid at the legendary (kinda) Skankytown skate spot along the East River in Williamsburg.
it was a mere 10 or 12 blocks away from my house and i remember also being surprised when KCDC first opened. now it moved next to Beacon's Closet or some shit. don't live in W-burg anymore.
