Skateboarding is something that has consumed most all of us ever since we started to push, carve and grind. It has taken us around the world, introduced us to new friends and changed the way we look at life.
For some, it even pays the bills that affords sports cars, custom built backyard pools and rockstar status. For others, there are a few obstacles that need to be overcome first before the passion of skateboarding takes over…day jobs.
While our mission at SKATEDAILY.net is to present the news of skateboarding to you, well, daily, there are times when unique and random things keep us from doing that. The beauty of it all is, when these things are completed there is a reward at the end of the day; skateboarding, and for us that means the very act of skating and providing its news, reviews and coverage.
We thank you for letting SKATEDAILY.net into your digital world since 2004. Now entering our seventh year, we are stoked as ever to be a part of skateboarding and to be able to connect with you worldwide.
Time warped once again to a time when the vert ramp was king, Quiksilver intends to deliver an afternoon of skate sessions with shaped signature decks, namesake tricks, assorted handplant variations, lappers, copers, “The Squeeb” and more at Orlando’s Surf Expo on January 7th. Tony Hawk, Steve Caballero, Christian Hosoi, Kevin Staab, Mc McGill, Buck Smith, Henry Gutierrez, Ben Schroeder, Rodney Mullen (skating vert?) and many others are ready to relive and entertain.
