I skate just about every day. I wouldn't say I'm great, but I'm pretty good. Skating has been a major part of my life since like 5th grade, when my dad and I built our first major mini ramp. From then on I've been skating that and the local park about every day (in between footbag sessions of course!). So I guess thats been about 5 years. I also have quite a few friends that are pretty amazing at the sport of skateboarding (they are all sponsored by some major shoe and board companies and win some pretty big contests often).

Here's a pic of my mini if anyone was interested:

I just had a brain fart. Ok if you go look at the Roger Team members, the fourth one says placeholder.
I totally thought that was a person, then I realized it was a placeholder. Wow!

SICK mini ramp dude.

I'm mostly into downhill speedboarding, but I would love to learn more street and vert stuff.

Mini ramps look soooo fun.

Kbizzle- your parents are awesome for letting you build something like that in your backyard. My parents wouldn't let me do that.

Haha yeah my dad was the one who even suggested building it. He's just as into skating as me. He isn't very good (can't move his one ankle from a really bad accident a few years ago), but he has just as much fun as anyone else.

That's sweet. My dad is the same way, he can't play ball anymore, but we are both baseball freaks.

I started skating when I was in 5th grade, around the time I started hacky sacking out on the playground. I'm 19 and I still skate, but and way more into footbag now.

Best tricks were Big Flip, Fakie Big Flip, 3-Flip, double flip. Love Habitat, Anti-Hero, Popwar, and blank decks.

I don't do as many stair sets and gaps nowadays, from fear of hurting my precious legs. Broken leg = no more footbag :(
