Dude, I know. It's all good. It's all fun. We coo, we coo. Haha.
Also, I love how PopwarPunk called me Snacker. That made me giggle. Like, I'm the thing you eat when you come home and get high after skating all day.

I got my first skateboard when I was 7.
I only started skateboarding technically for about a year.
Though I learned all the basics in riding and ollies on my own. It helps since now I can learn tricks quicker, and explain to other people the key points in tricks. I landed my first kickflip probably when I was 11. But I never had them consistent until I just started again last year.
