Good article on "Skateboarding"

Please read the following article I found in a New Hampshire newspaper. It really does a good job of explaining skateboarders from their point of veiw. Here is a sample:

Dyrdek and Rodriguez said they’ve both have been chased by the police.

“I’m saying I’m running from cops not even a year ago,” Dyrdek said, describing how he and a group of 30 other skaters fled from police at a Santa Monica schoolyard. His description, including how he climbed over a fence, sounded similar to the opening scene of his movie.

“It’s the reality of what we all do. It’s not like there’s tons of legal places to ride a skateboard,” he said. “There’s only one in L.A. Everything we skate to this day still is illegal.”

Here is the link to the article:
