practice it, so I went to see the park manager and I told him about my plan to build one in his park. I was very happy to learn that he also thought it was a good idea. Two weeks later, my friends and I began skateboarding on a new ramp.

I have been skateboarding for three years and I still love it. I like the feeling I get when I am getting ready for a ride. I get excited and I can feel my heart beating faster. When I concentrate on the way my body moves in the air, I feel that I am flying and I am free from everything.

I am like every other rider; I always wear a helmet and other equipment to protect myself. I want to do it well, and I also want to play it safe.
