This sounds kinda weird but here we go. Snowboarding is not cheap skateboarding is. Skateboarding is also more of a culture. When you go snowboard you're all padded up in skiwear and when you fall of you land on snow which is relatively soft compared to concrete or wood etc. Maybe you just need to be more confident skateboarding and try walking before you run. IE don't get cocky or over confident
well, yeah, there is that daredevil adrenaline rush you get from doing risky stuff. but you gotta admit even doing something less risky like just rolling down the street is funner than walking, right? and you know skating doesnt have to involve the risky and injurious behavior. to me, even doing simple tricks on flat is fun. you dont need to kickflip a 10-stair to have fun
People skateboard because they like it and it probably gives them an adrenalin rush. People skateboarding doesn't affect you in anyway so just don't worry about it.
ive got one korean american friend and one friend fresh off the boat from korea and we skate together basically everyday, and we do it because its fun and the world is our skatepark
For the hell of it I guess. Why do people do anything? You can get hurt walking you know...
