SKATEBOARDING

Anybody who is over the age of six knows that there is nowhere safe for
skateboarders to skate. This prevents young people from enjoying an active,
energetic and adventurous pastime.
Just watch a local street for a short while and note the steady stream of
skaters speeding up and down the footpaths. Toddlers can be trampled on and
old ladies can be knocked down as they struggle home carrying their cat food
from supermarkets.
Skateboarding is a serious sport that improves young people’s health. It
increases fitness, improves balance and strengthens the joints in knees and
ankles. Although it appears to be a solo sport, when groups practice together
and compete to perform stunts or runs they form firm friendships.
Young people should be prevented from becoming overweight couch
potatoes. If they are actively involved in skating, they do not smoke, take drugs
or break laws for fun.
Kids will always seek thrills and excitement. They need to practice their
180s, 360s and Ollie’s free from restrictions. We must build skate parks in the
suburbs so that streets are safe for small children and senior citizens and skaters
have spaces where they can race, chase, speed, and soar towards the sun.
