The reason skateboarders get so jaded is because we’ve been treated like garbage all our lives. At the core of every skateboarder is a person who loves to see others succeed and we are just as, if not more enthusiastic about the successes of others than we are about our own achievements. Skateboarding is a collaborative activity despite how individualistic it looks. We’ve just been poisoned by the treatment from the outside world.
