    I skated for about 10 years but I haven't in about 5 or so. I was never amazing or anything, I could do your basic tricks (kickflip, varial flip, basic grinds, vert stalls, etc.) but I enjoyed it. I was more of a speed skater, and also used my board for travel a lot (to and from school/work, etc.) I certainly still can, but I just don't.

    When I was about 10 I got my first skateboard, but I was just pushing. Now I'm 16 and I fall in love with skateboarding just few months ago and I really regret wasting those 6 years

    Landing the first kickflip is the best feeling ever :P how old are you now? You should really come back to it, it's the best thing ever

    I am 30 now, I started when I was 14 or so, but I am too lazy to keep going at it anymore. I don't really have that "no fear" attitude that most skaters have. I will agree though, landing that first kickflip is the best. I gave my buddy a giant hug when I did it and he was like wtf. Lol.

    I've been a skateboarder since I was 15. I'm 35 now and still skating around when I can (read not as much as I'd like). I'm pretty bad now but I still have one-foots and Nollie Hards on lock though!

    K4kshi - Are you in the facebook TF group? Also where is PL referring to in your uplay ID?

    EDIT: I'm guessing it's Poland, right?

    It will come dude (I've got them switch too - but not normal haha). I've been skating for over 20 years and it's not the easiest thing to learn so just keep trying and having fun with it. Honestly though, I'm really bad now - I don't skate enough to be consistant. PS. if you can kickflip, you can fakie flip. I'm a heel flip kinda guy though. My kickflips have always been stinking!

    yeah same with nollie=switch.
    sadly my kickflips are still poor, i landed it few times, not even while riding i started not long time ago, but im progressing all the time!
