  1. You just need to learn some of the jargon used in skateboarding.  http://www.skatewood.com/jargon.php

    Don;t be too obvious or lay it on too thick.  You will be branded a poser or will be laughed out of the skatepark.

    As far as dress, wear what you like and what is comfortable to skate in.  The worst thing you can do is to go overboard and quickly, it will again bad for you.


  2. _._ ::sigh::

    as a fellow skateboarding chick I say: just be yourself.

    I personally hate the the skating lingo.

    People don't need to know you skateboard.

    but whatever; for the clothes: loose baggy ones and Vans or Converse. Billabong, Element, Zoo York kind of brands.

    skate talk: sickk, clean, wipe out etc.

  3. Just act yourself.  Just becuase you skateboard doesn't mean you have to jump on the band wagon and try and be stereotypical.  Show some independence and act and dress how you want to!!

  4. If your try too hard your going to end up being called a poser...i've been skatin for 3 years (first two i skated almost every day) and it never mattered how i talked or dressed...just wear clothes that are comfy, and skate shoes help...(dont skate in hiking boots it doesnt work).

    If you really care about how you look when you skate then you wont have as much time to actually skate.

  5. shop at zumiez, its a skate shop that sells boards, clothes, and shoes.

  6. well, for the clothes u can wear as a girl....billabong, volcom, roxy, and pants...tight fitting pants such as kr3w pants, and shoes would be vans slip ons, or skater shoes, lingo= sweet, killer, awesome, rad, totally, say dude alot, call girls chicks....etc, not to be mean or anything but this sort of stuff could kinda make u...unnattractive to other guys, and less popular with the girls, and make u seem like...a les IF you go too far with it and start acting like a guy, but hope it dont, good luck and have fun =)

  7. hahaha your a funny chica..

  8. If you really want to know the lingo then the best way to learn is watch skate videos.  Learn the names of the tricks.  Youtube is a good site to check for skating tutorials.  CCS is a good site to give you an idea of the brands of clothes and equipment.  Here’s the link:

    Also if you really want to be “wow’d” look up Rodney Mullen on youtube.  =)

  9. Never call a tre flip a "3 flip" you will sound like a r****d!!
