If you were offered free skate gear like decks, wheels, trucks, bearings, etc.
ex.(Products like blank decks, venture trucks, swiss bearings, spitfire wheels)
from a company such as blankdecks.com that doesn't really support the industry of skateboarding. You have no money to buy stuff from your local skateshop or catalog. (CCS, ACTIVE)
I'm not saying you have to support them by skating their products, but just using them.
Would you take the free products if you didn't have a skateboard?
