I did get back up and start skating again a little while later, but my tailbone is actually bruised now, and I'm resting so it can heal. According to the people there, I'm a poser because I can't take a fall. After I took the fall, (my lower back slammed into a concrete slab on the ground) I had to sit out in the bleachers aside of the park for a few minutes. Yesterday, I was at the skatepark and I took a pretty hard fall onto my tailbone, so I'm not actually able to skate right now.
I think it's ridiculous to be judged by the clothes I wear, and where I buy them. I don't know what makes clothes purchased at Zumiez different from clothes sold at other places, such as Thrasher, but if someone could let me know that would be great, because apparently my Thrasher shirt isn't real and I'm a poser. Over time though, people continued to point it out and call me a poser, so I changed the way I carry my board.Ībout a week ago, I bought a Thrasher t-shirt, because I thought it was a nice looking shirt, and I wanted to purchase a piece of clothing to wear. So, in defiance I continued to carry my skateboard by mall-grabbing. I thought this was absolutely ridiculous, that every skateboarder had to carry their board a certain way or else they wouldn't be taken seriously. The term is used to describe people who carry their board by their trucks, rather than the deck- and is often considered a sign of a skateboarding poser. I didn't know what it meant, so when I got home I searched up what the term meant. I'm posting this to r/NewSkaters because r/skateboarding seems to not allow text posts, and I feel that this topic is somewhat relevant to the topic of new skateboarders.Ībout a year ago, someone pointed out that I was 'mall-grabbing' when I was carrying my board on my way to class. Recently, however, I've begun to fall out of love with skateboarding, or at least most of the people who associate themselves with it.
I'd like to preface this post by saying I'm not exactly new to skateboarding.
