i have problems for skateboarding. i don't know where to skateboard any more?

Question

hi, name is Matt and i am 12(look 14 or older) and in the 7th grade. I have been skateboarding basically since kinder garden or first or second grade but i really wasn't into it for real until 5th grade. i skateboard a lot with my best friend(Bill) who is in 12 and a 7th grader. he has been skateboarding just as long as i have but i am better. skateboarding my top number one very extreme best sports. same with bill, but bill never wants to admit. the problem is that where ever we go to skateboard we get kicked out and people call the police on us. where can we go to skateboard. we live in North Dallas, Texas and there are no skateparks to go to. they are all from other parts of the city and very faraway and plus our parents don't have time to take us because of work. today, me and bill were both with a 17 year old bmxer at an elementary school skateboarding the high tables doing tricks like ollies and pop shuv-its off them. then, a dumb mom who shouldn't even give a care called the

police. the police chased caught me and my friend and called our parents. it was also the teachers who called police. i really don't see why other people care. it doesn't have any effect on them. and i don't even know those people so why do they care. i skateboarded in my street and people called the police on me two years ago. every where i go i get kicked out. this sucks. and if i refuse to, i will be dealing with the police. what can i do?

Answer 1

I had this same problem. I am 20 years old now and have been skating since i was 13. There are always going to be nice spots to skate, but most of the time security, random people, and the cops will show up and tell you to get out. There is something me and my friends did to solve this problem, create your own spot.

Go and find anything you think is skateable. Find some 2 by 4s and some plywood, or anything like that. Make a launch ramp, or if you know how, a quarter pipe. If you have the wood, time and money, make a mini pipe. I have a 4 footer outside my house, it took alot of time to make it good, but when i have no where else to go or just want to skate really bad, it gets the job done.

Hopefully this helps you.

Answer 2

Well you could skate in the drive way or you could skate in Bill's street .If you have money you could buy quarter pipes and rails and use them at home. Also you could put wood plaques where you could skate in the back yard but if non of that does not work you could try to use the garage to skate but that might not work maybe when you go on vacation or you could skate on a side walk nearby but thats all I could think of unless you have a friend out of state you could visit and go to the skatepark there or since you skated in your street 2 years ago you could try again since you neighbors could have moved.
