How do you give back to skateboarding?

[TheBoognish]

I’ve been buying my gear from the same skateshop for 22 years.

I’ll also clean up the park if there’s trash on the ground.

That’s about it, with all the injuries skateboarding has given me over the years I don’t owe it shit.

I’m still waiting on full payment of that wheelbite in the rain skating owes me, before I reciprocate in kind with any sort of give-back.

By lighting a bundle of sage at each skate sesh to fend off the evil spirits.

I believe it was Walker Ryan that said it perfect. Core brands don’t really give a fuck about you it’s all marketing. If you’re buying product of the skaters you like that’s giving back enough. Skaters don’t owe the industry shit. We are the ones keeping it afloat.

Right now i've been skating hand me downs and blank decks so nothing really. I watch skate related youtube content, which makes the creators a weasily amount of money. So gotta be honest I basically just leech of of skateboarding.
