People may disagree with me, but to just start out, go to walmart, buy some pads, a helmet and a board, ride until your comfterble, get used to it without pads, then search for some good skate shoes (I suggest e'S or Emericas) and start trying tricks.

you girls should create your own little girls club in private and shit, and talk about experiences as girl skaters, that way you can stay away from horny teens in front of computers all day Mcjesus

then i can start a new account and prettend to be a girl and find out what your talking about hahaha. yeah no i wouldnt do that

nice, high five

umm, just say "im not fragile, GIRL POWER!" and he'll get scared, run away, and forget his skateboard
but really, ask your brother how you're ever gonna get not fragile with him treating you like a porcelin doll
if shes fragile, she might be hot, think guys, a hot skater chick!

Just get some pads and get used to kicking and everything. All you have to do is practice.

Well try it, my sister wanted to try it and she was like "OMGOMGOMG I wanna try an ollie!!!111". So I let her try and the board slid out from under her. She then FLIPPED out. She started cussing and crap, and I started laughing my ass off.
