That is so OTM. Just down my street, there is a skatepark. I pass it several times a week, and those punks NEVER seem to get it right. They wear expensive sk8er clothing, though.

I have. My nephew's friend could do amazing tricks. Sadly, he's in a wheel chair because he broke his hip due to skateboarding.

keep in mind like most pro athletes, skateboarders who rake in the bucks (bam, hawk, etc) do so more from endorsements rather than money tied directly to the sport.
so for me definitely i'd rather be a skateboarder - far cooler.
I've had a thing for them since i was a wee lass of 13 and really wish I had kept up my own adolescent skating attempts.
any boy on a board with wheels on it gets a double (or triple) take from me. . .

There is no way I'd be a professional skateboarder. One of my friends has a sister who got injured skateboarding. She's fine now but it was quite a tragety(sp?). And the other sister my friend has is a lot of fun. She's a punk with a kind heart.

But the masochism of stuff like Jackass is pretty jock-like to me.Alex is OTM about skaters being jocks, I was actually gonna say the same thing. Its also really boring to hang around skaters when you're not skating. My brother was a skateboarder. He used to watch skate videos religiously and try to show off the tricks he could do, but most average skateboard tricks are pretty unimpressive to watch even if they're hard to do. Skate videos have cool music sometimes, though.

Jocks can be rock stars (hell, look at Hootie & the Blowfish....if they still qualify as 'rock stars').
While I respect those gents profiled in "Dogtown & Z Boys" (and it's a great goddamn film), I'd still call them jocks.

Excuse me, but it would be exceptionally preferable if you were to stop invoking my name on these threads unless absolutely necessary. And I'd like to add while I'm at it -- if I may -- that I most assuredly do not appreciate being compared to the likes of diminutive Jon. Though I do quite watching ladies "get low". That is all. Honor the fire.
