“The idea of looking like a skateboarder without participating in the sport is the reason why the explosion happened, and allowed a company like ours to grow beyond the core scope,” Mr. Obre said.
he said it right.
At least you are trying to participate, just don't try too hard my friend. You don't have to prove anything to anyone that you skateboard by showing your barely torn/worn shoes.
but hey at least you got money. and you know it, take it out yo pocket and show it...like whoooosh!.

we all some punks..we cant say it 2 yo face..LOL
skating and looking dope at the same time is an expensive business....it's simple don't skate in fancy hi tops, get some shoes that arent made out of sparkly leather etc....they'll last a lot longer than 3 days.
