Man...
We need more people in this forum...

Other people don't like skateboard la...what to do?

skateboarding is small community..especially nowadays. not many people interest anymore in this kinda sport..
no new face..plus, many old timer quit skateboard..

Yups,also in Malaysia its hard to be profesional skateboarder and make it as your job...unlike US or other europe country.That's why many people choose another sport as a hobby or as a profesion..

I quit from the scene long time ago,but still supporting it...

If there no one interested in skateboard nevermind laa,just grab your board and do what you like...

i think theres a lot of new faces...
u should come to shah alam skatepark...
there's a lot of new faces...
they skate like a pro...
plus, sometimes theres a lot of foreign skater come to skate in shah alam...

skateboard nowdays is not trend anymore..true that in year 1998-2005 is the most popular Xtreme sport in Malaysia..but nowdays ppl prefer playing futsal(popular sport now!),badminton,snooker or mayb squash in my campus...mayb the oldtimer skater's retired edi hoho pak din,amir,joe ipoh(coaching ppl i heard from fren)...but i was once skater in 1999-2004..ollie,big ollie,kikckflip,heelflip,shuvit flip,360flip,double kickflip(my fav ^^),swicth180 flip(another of my fav creation),boardslide,frontsideslide,kgrind..i use to play those kind of trick be4 but after broke 2 of my fingers..i stop playing skate and concerntrate on my study..hope 1 days skateboard era will come back as be4..love extreme especially skateboard and bmx flatland

i've been to shah alam skatepark..
true..there's many of new faces and they r pro to me..
but that's only in selangor or KL..
how bout other places??

most of skaters outside s'gor and kl migrate to klang valley...
juz like one skater named man-xtra...
he's from jb...now he study at shah alam (if im not mistaken)
but overall, they said s'pore skater is better than ours...
so ejat, ur still skating???
if u come to shah alam..let me know...
we can skate 2gether...im a bit rusty oredi...

how come s'pore skater much better than us although we have more fasicilities and spot compare to them?
but, that's the fact..last year x games asia won by firdaus from s'pore..
i still skate and i think i'm gonna skate as many as i could per week
i go to shah alam park with my oldies fren from highschool..now, they scattered all over malaysia and one of them at indonesia..
need to find perfect time when semester break for me and my fren skate together at shah alam..
sure..sure..will let u know..

i've read REVOLUTION magazine (a skateboard mag) and i am very surprised when i read an article about a kid around 7 years old already do this skateboarding stuf seriously and he is a singaporean..surprisingly he already can make some sort of tricks such as kickflip and grinds (i think he is too young for that tricks)....
i wonder if teach my cousin (he is 6 years old) to skate...haha..maybe some day he'll be just like tony hawk or rodney mullen....
even tony hawk's son can do kickflip when was 4..
(my first kickflip is when i was 16).....

Tony Hawk's son can do kickflip because he is Tony Hawk's son...if i'm Eric Koston son sure can do backside 180 kickflip at 3 years old..

hahahahaaa....
unfortunately, u r not koston's son...
if not...u already gone pro by now...

if we think bout it..do we have same interest with our dad?
i mean..if u r really eric koston or tony hawk's son izzit like we must have same interest with them?
As far as i know..tony hawk's son only follow his dad with the same interest..anybody know other pro's son skates?
