i think ima stoip skatin cuz liek i SUCK!!!! and plus i never have time to skate anymore im either at skool or working or sumthing. and ima be in a band (hopfully) soon so that will take up what time ill have and i cant fit skating in anymore. im prolly stupid for stopping but im not imporving and i dont skate for a long time and then forget how to do things and have to learn them over again. so i think ill stop and be done.

I suck horribly at skating compared to some people. I just live for the feeling you get when you land a trick for the first time with all of your friends around.

Well I don't think you should quit just because you think you suck. I'd only quit if I wasn't having fun anymore.

Just because u quit skateboarding, u sign a contract ,and give ur board to an anti board destryoing company...
Yoy can easily go back skating, there's no such thing as quiting skateboarding, becuase it a free for all sport.
- It isnt a job in other words.

whaa? why'd you start in the first place? if it was to have fun, i had fun even just practicing ollies. You probably just started skating to be popular, or cool like so many people nowdays, who load up on skate apparel, and then quit within a matter of months...

Style? So, its about showing off eh? Those bastards.... jk :).
Ya, many of my friends skate to be cool, be in the crowd. Gain popularity, and etc. The list will go on for the benefits of skating... its like a style now.

okie for one i didnt start skatin cuz everyone else was doin it but if it will make you happy ill say i did just so you can be happy for yerself. i started cuz i like the sport but the thing is finding time for it.

Took the words right out of my mouth Mooshoo. you cant quit because some time down the road you will get back on a board again and want to skate again. you cant say "im not gioing to skate for a while" but quiting all together, in my mind al least, is impossible

So??? Im Still Shite at skatin - i cant get near a 360 after nearly 2 yrs!

Ive been skating 2 and a bit years and I suck... i cant 360flip or jack shit.. its just for fun and transport. some of you guys miss the plot of skating you can skate for 40 years and still not be able to drop a vert but who cares? another thing you naturally progress in skating as you go along, if you just skate everyday for like 2 hours, and you go skating at the weekend you will try stuff thats like 2 inches higher than those last set of 3... then you think wow, maybe i can ollie a 4 set, so you try them. Just think how long some skaters have been skating and then think about it again, some of them 15 years they naturally progress.. cmon 15 years!!! thats my lifetime here! just dont stop.. 10 minutes of skating is better than nothing

you don't suck if your having fun,,,,and you are having fun right?if your not having fun then you should quit cuz its all about fun, and who ares if you don't have any time,make time!!!

my theory is that if you keep devoted to skating, and never stop, you could go pro. it doesn't matter if you suck, just stick with it and never quit. so many people quit, thats why everyone thinks its hard to go pro. it not, really, it's all building on your trick vocabulary. like i said, never quit, and you could go pro someday. like yesterday. me and chris (globesk8er) were skating, and he just got boardslides down, and he says "i'll practice 50-50's" and by the end of the night, he was doing crooks.

well...if you suck AND don't like it, I say quit if you want to. You don't have to force yourself to do something if you don't like it. Some people suck and still like to skateboard cuz they know they're improving their technique and everything, but if you really don't like it, quit.

Thank god dude. Thanks for not quitting I hate skaters that quit. My best friend just quit the other day and I was ****ing pissed
