What were you wearing at your first skateboard lesson?  I actually don’t know what I was wearing – but I know Faeryn was wearing stripes thank to amythebrat for sharing.

There are people who think skateboarding shouldn’t be taught.  I respect their opinion and maybe for them it’s true – I know you can be an incredible skater without taking lessons.  But if you have the opportunity for lessons – why not?

I totally believe in positive vibes & doing better at something because someone is encouraging you – someone who’s been there, done that, and knows you’ll live!

The other part of the story I love – Faeryn wanted to try skateboarding because she watched big kids around the county!  Please keep sharing your pictures and stories – someone might not have “neighbors” to see skateboarding but they can see you in this blog & be inspired to give it a try themselves.
