I like to ride my skateboard but I'm not that good at tricks.

Yeah skateboarding is an action packed sport that does involve performing lots of tricks using the skateboard. I am sure if you practice you will get better.

You're right I do need to practice.  I use my skateboard mostly to commute to class right now.

That is one of the uses for a skateboard. A lot of people use it for commuting but also people use it as an art form or even use it in their jobs. But mostly people use a skateboard recreationally.

Yeah.  I see a lot of people riding skateboards around my campus.  I see a lot of falling.

That is definitely a down fall. Pun intended, lol. They say that there are 11.08 million active skateboarders in the world. That is incredible!

Haha. That's a ton of skateboarders.  I had no idea there were that many.

Yeah and the skateboarding market is worth around 4.8 billion dollars in annual sales.
