Hello forum,
It's not about dragging western culture to India,but really who doesn't want to perform cool stunts in mid air,with just a wooden plank and a good eye-leg co-ordination?
So the main motive of this topic is to have a discussion about Skateboarding.
Yeah it becomes difficult as well as challenging when it comes to skateboarding in Indian roads :-o
Well we don't have those stunt parks like in New York,but still there are many like me.who get tempt a lot when they watch any video of skateboarding on youtube.
Well what's your status ?
about me- i am a newbie searching for skateboard online.
and enthusiast please help me in answering these question :|
Am i fit for skateboarding?
My height- 6'4"
Weight-95 Kg.
Once i get confirmation on my stature and weight.I will move forward with the buying board and all.
about the weight,right now i am working on it and any further tips will be appreciated.

at the end of this thread i want to thank levis for making this awareness clip.

If you are not too old and your bones are not brittle, you can.

You're too tall and heavy for being mobile with a skateboard. Practice anyway.

This has nothing to do with western culture.

Nothing really. You just need to be mobile and have a good centre of gravity + good balance.

I always wish to do skateboarding. Maybe someday. :(

And that video from Levi's were great. I watched all 3 parts. Greatly moved by Abhieshek's ("Shake") narration.

Also, I would like to share a clip too. Marty McFly changed the world of skating. :D
