Ive been into it for almost 10 years.. but this year I started skateing, and on my first real skate trip, I fucked up my wrist, out for a day. Then I skated yesterday, and busted a Easter day massacre on my hands and thumb. Now my problem here isnt the pain, its that Im not in high-school anymore. I have to worry about going to work the next day, I had to call off a four day weekend this week, and its going to put a big dent in my pay. So basically, now Im hit with the realization that Im not a teenager anymore... lol The only thing that comforts me at this point is the prospect of putting all my skate energy into music now.. cause I need my various creative outlets, im just going to have to change that one
psh. pussy. Go big or go home. I live with that kind of shit everyday. It's one of the calculated risk's of doing an action sport. If I hurt my leg or hand, I probably cant work but it will be worth it, or I just ride through the pain. Man up, don't be a pussy
I could still ride.. but I cant work, and If I cant pay the bills.. then it really isnt worth it.. im just doing it for creative expression feeling the flow, im not getting any money from it, and I can get that same sort of creative flow from other things so fuck it.. Like if I had some wrist guards helmet, and a really nice mini-ramp Id be way into it.. but Im not willing to spend money on pads anyway
as long as i wear some sort of gloves i'm really could care less about falling. i just hate fucking up my hands
