I am happy to help anyone who is keen to skate, but I draw the line at people who always have their hand out for cheap or free product, especially when I see them smoking, drinking, partying or whatever then cry broke and cannot afford a deck.
Almost always when I try to explain this, they have even more of a whinge which makes me just NOT want to help them at all, but it seems to be an all too common issue.
A little respect goes a long way.
