How to Be a Good Looking Skater
For guys and girls if you want to be good looking skater, read this!
[edit] Steps
- Grow your hair out, Wear a hat MOST THE TIME so your hair will kind of fan out on the edges.
- Work out 3 times a week for at least 1hr to tone your body. Anything less than 3 times a week and there will be no real effect.
- Wear skate jeans.
- Dress in skate clothes like Quicksilver, Plan B, Zero, Fallen, Volcom, Black Label, Darkstar, Element, Zoo York, ALmost, Blind, DC,and Active or any other skate brand clothes.
- Wear a White or Black belt (it helps most of the time).
- Wear skate shoes.
- Carry, and ride your most important accessory, your skateboard.
- Something important is confidence, if you don't believe in yourself (looks/skating) chicks/dudes won't either.
- Wear shoes that are made by good companies like DC, Fallen, DVS, etnies, eS, Vans and Globes.
[edit] Tips
- Practice skating a lot and don't worry if you aren't as good as the other people in the park because everybody has to start somewhere
- Don't get nervous, just skate like you would when no one is around. Who cares about reputation, or how you look, just skate and have fun.
- No one likes a "poser" faux-skater. Actually learn to skateboard before trying to look like one.
- Don't care about what skate clothes you have or what shoes. Sure you need skate shoes and it helps show you are a skater if you wear "skate clothes" but you're a poser if you just talk about skate shoes and skate clothes. Talk about what trick you're trying to learn or what spot you found. Something relevant to skateboarding, not fashion.
- Even if you are going to try a new ramp, dont ride down it on your skateboard on your ass because you will look like a poser and an idiot.
[edit] Warnings
- You will be called a poser if you don't know what you're doing. Don't start skating just because you like the shoes or the clothes. that automaticcaly makes you a poser.
And don't call yourself a skater. skateboarder is better
[edit] Things You'll Need
- A skateboard
- A helmet(people will NOT call you a poser. it might look dumb but if your doing some huge airs. you can't be too safe on that crap.
- Pads (reccomended)(same from the top)
- Skate shoes
- A local skate park
- A local skate shop
- Skater buddies (friends that like to skateboard with you,You will feel confortable)
- Confidence because without that you will never learn to try any new tricks
