It never made me love skating less either. Which is why I still embrace all styles. I just cant take landings all day, I feel every single landing the next day and following week. But i can DH and freeride all day so why would i choose to only skate for thirty mins when i could go all day? There was a two year period where I would literally wake up everyday with my back feeling like a 70 yr old man from the different sports i was in. This was when I was 16. that feeling would go all day everyday. I still can't arch backwards whatsoever. my back literally won't  bend back anymore. For example last time I did a backflips on cement I felt it in my back for the next two weeks. So i accept my bodies limits cuz I don't wanna feel like I'm ancient by the time I'm thirty; cuz then I could never skate and I don't plan on stopping till I die. So you've had your injuries as well and I can respect that. But  it's clear what you think of long boarding is what's technically considered sidewalk surfing or cruising which you can Really do on any board. Don't bag it till you try it cuz I guarantee you if you love skateboarding, you'd love skateboarding down hill at 40-60mph the whole way down or pullin your board sideways for fifty feet on soft wheels and feel the thane just peel away from under your feet. It's addictive, just like landing that first Ollie or kick flip.

Longboarding is kind of like the arena football of skateboarding

Nah its more like aussie rules as compared to rugby.

Why don't you just skate transition longboarder? Zero impact and can do tricks easily. Also no skater says popsicle or trick stick or whatever. Only longboarders and children. And maybe horrible poseur's.
I;m sure i;m not the only dc/monster/subaru type guy here

Probably^ I heard this guy telling all these jokes today but they were just so clever no one got them. I mean they were some witty smart jokes, I just guess no one could understand them they were just so deep. That must've been you, right? Cuz you are just such a clever clever guy, huh?

Hell the styles mesh and coincide so much that guys are beginning to make hybrids just so they can throw down tricks as well as slides and go fast all on the same board

Just look up earthwing or comet's website. a giant double kick skateboard with a 20in WB? How can you argue with the awesomeness of that? plenty of other hybrids and slighty longer WB skateboards and longboards with a shorter WB than a typical longboard would have.

What? I made no jokes, and you didn't answer why you don't just skate transition(bowls/ramps/pools).carve/go grinds/airs, there's almost no impact.
I;m sure i;m not the only dc/monster/subaru type guy here

Dude I skate bowl. I have two bowl boards. I just don't get too often. I don't even have a park in my town. Gotta at least go to another town just to skate bowl. But I live in a neighborhood with suuuuper steep hills that are damn fun to slide on cuz you get so much speed and I can push to those hills. I would do pool more if it was more feasible. As long as I'm on a skateboard I really don't care what kind of skating I'm doing because I'm always having fun.

But they are fun, I really don't care how I look to other people. I'm not skating to please others. And actually most people that don't even have a background in skating like they looks of the hybrids. And I'm sure the gonz wouldn't appreciate you saying we shouldn't skate em cuz we look goofy either haha that dude is just happy if he sees a kid haven fun on a board...doesn't matter what kinda board it is.

And I would love some curry as well. It is mighty scrumptious and spicy. I've gotten that my entire life lol. My name is actually dick curry if your into exotic curry dishes Hahahahahah

All I hear is excuses and rationalizations from Rcurry.  None of which make me think longboarders are any less lame.  Shit, in all actuality, all of Rcurry's replies back up my generalizations about every single one of the lamest longboarders on this planet.  Good job!

My friend, you see what I'm saying as excuses while I'm simply explaining how all styles coincide, work together, and all originated at the same time because you are too stupid and close minded to try new things. You are so sure trick skating is the most badass coolest og style of skating that no other style even deserves recognition. when in reality it the techy trick skating didnt get super big till way later. You have your ego so far shoved up your ass, you're spewing shit out your mouth

No managuense, I'm positive it was you. I couldn't forget someone so clever. I mean I was just so impressed at your creativity. You were just SO original I couldn't possibly forget you. Please do us all a favor bestow upon us more of your witty, witty material. It would be a pleasure...no an honor to hear more of your oh so fresh material. Mmm mmm i just can't get enough of this funny guy

You need to learn to put all your replies in one post. You don't need to be working your way to Pal status that quick.

for real though if you like riding a longboard and all that then go ahead and do it,life is really too short to worry about what aothher people think of you. but at the same time coming on here as the fuckin moral crusader for all longboarders is pretty pointless and lame. just accept the fact youre going to get shit for it and move on
