It Kicks Butt

Here are two skaters' thoughts about skateboarding and the 2001 Slam City Jam.

I started skateboarding two months ago. I still can't do very many tricks but I can now do an ollie. The Slam City Jam was awesome. There was a massive skate bowl there and tons of people were there skateboarding and doing lots of tricks. I didn't do any because I'm not good enough to skate in the bowl yet. When I was there I met Bob Burnquist who is my favorite skater. I also got some free stickers and a t-shirt from Shortys.

I have been skating for one year. My worst skateboard accident happened when I was skateboarding down a hill. All of a sudden I started going really fast and I couldn't stop. My skateboard took off and I went flying. I broke my wrist and hit my head on the pavement. I was wearing a bicycle helmet and it broke in half, but I didn't hurt my head. At the Slam City Jam, I skated almost all day at the outside skate park and watched the street contest inside.
