He's going to land on that pumpkin, fall, and smash his face, isn't he?
/toy/ is that way-------------->
or he might land a 360 flip
Hey Op:see>>116819also not a /sp/ so gtfo
lets not get pissy now, how is skateboarding not a sport? is it because you don't play with balls? or is it the gay ass emo skaters that ruin it for everyone?
>>117401sport. n.Physical activity that is governed by a set of rules or customs and often engaged in competitively.
>>117401It's as much a sport as ice skating and dog showing.
thank you for pointing out the def. for me. have you seen skate competition? there are rules, lots of physical activity and everything else that goes along with the def. of a sport.
if skateboarding is a sport then so is roller derbyand sky divingand bungie jumpingand red roverand freeze tagand rasslinand ...fuck it who cares
i guess a couple of those could be sports if you get technical, yes.
somebody should have made a gif of the skateboarding dude at the x games that fell from the super jump or some shit and crashed and lost his shoes
i thought that was funny as hell, as much as i love skateboarding it's always fun to see some good bails and that was the most amazing one i ever seen.
>>117414I remember that. It happened after he nailed a 720 off of a jump, and after he fell from 40 feet or whatever it was, the first thing Tony Hawk said (he was commentating) was "Wow...I can't believe he nailed the 720". Priceless.
it would suck to be that guy because thats all he will be remembered for now... bailing so hard his shoes said fuck this
>>117422>>117425hahaahaha found youtube link of it:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SrnJ3JyaekIEpic Jake Brown bail

in b4 /sp/ needs moar skateboarding threadsPic extremely related. Jon Allie is boss.
LYK DOOD YOUER TOTALLY RAD CUZ YOU BOARDgtfo.
really, if you don't like skateboarding don't comment this thread. stick to a bunch of guys playing with balls.this is a thread for people who "like" skateboarding. if you get your kicks out of making fun of people about something so little as this online you need to move out of your mothers house and get some real human contact other that watching ESPN.
>>117796nice pic, thats pretty bad ass. i want to see 117808 try something like that. maybe when he busted his ass he would sop talking shit.
Rodney Mullen, best flat land skater ever.
mullen is insane
>>118223failtroll, 0/10
i "liek" skateboardingcan you fit your skateboard up your ass?if not, you're still a faggot
if you think it's so gay then ignore it and go back to talking about kickin it on the b-ball court.
>>118288ooh, faggot has faggot friendsgo suck each other off emo skate douchebags and don't make posts
skateboarding is not a sport, that's what makes it so great.
>>118314If you ask most skaters, their response is "Its an art form">>118258Daewon Song is pretty bitchin' too.
>>118234Exactly. Its cheesy, but if you don't skate, then you don't understand. Almost all of the douchebags on this thread are the "LEAVE ... TO ME, BECAUSE BASKETBALL IT MOST DEFINITELY A LEGITIMATE SPORT, RIGHT?"fags.
really? you feel cool wishing you could talk tough like that offline? what the hell does emo kid have anything to do with this? i don't know if you noticed but in the sports you think are a "mans" sport they get naked together, shoer together and smack each others asses.
i'm glad jocks still hate skateboarding
it's becuase they are afraid they might get hurt so they would rather stick to steriods and pretend to get hurt on the court. have you ever seen a pro basketball game? everytime something doesn't go they way they want it to they act hurt. they are attention wanting big babies.
If you dont skate, you cant relate
i relate
My god, the skatefag(s)? is a newfag.Also I must live in my mothers basement because I think skateboarding isn't a sport? how the fuck does that work?sage for nonsportSAGE IN ALL FIELD.
/toy/ ------>
no, it's because you think your tough for talking shit on an online forum. if you want to start shit, go outside and start a fight.
>>118508Quit bumping this shit, it's not /sp/ related. /toy/ is over there ->
>>118508god damn, am I getting trolled? This guy can't be serious.
BUMP BUMP BUMPi love bursting your bubble so here it goes. skateboarding is a sport because it fits the definition of a sport.A 2002 report by "American Sports Data" found that there were 18.5 million skateboarders in the world.
bumpity bump
>it fits the definition of a sportNo, doesn't.
>>118521retard
>>118521Is defecating a sport because 6 billion people do it?
skateboarding requires way more skill than any other sport. People can't just do it. How hard is it to play basketball? You can train a two-year old to do it. Give him a ball, tell him to throw it through a hoop, and he can pretty much do it. Take a player from the NBA and put him on a skateboard and he'll probably break his hip. Just learning the basics of skateboarding generally take hundreds of hours of practice, compared to a few hours for any other sport.
>>118552so playing the guitar is a sport too, I guess.
>>118552you can train a dog to ride a skateboard.your argument is invalid
you can train a dog to bump a ball through a hoop
ITT: amazing fucking dogs
how is skateboarding not a sport? it's basically equivalent to BMX which is in the olympics now. which, OH SHIT, "is an international multi-SPORT event"
>>118572Fuck Tibet. This is why I'm boycotting the olympics. They lost me with ballroom dancing, honestly.
>>118572how is skateboarding not a sport?It's judged.Athletic? Yes. Sport? No.
>>118349>they get naked together, shoer together and smack each others asses>shoer together>shoerretard
