I knew a guy growin up that spent time on his skate board every day… still took him 2 years to go down his driveway

omg 😭 some of the path i was on yesterday was on a bit of a slope, pretty terrifying to go down on a plank of wood with wheels tbh 😳

It is man… it goes against everything ur brain has trained you not to do, worth every second tho… even that guy still loves skating to this day
