Hey skater dudes and skater chicks name's Davino.
I'm writing this article to get skaters to check out the Vans Skatepark
in Milpitas CA. Well if you haven't been to this skatepark or ever
been to a skatepark that's OK there's always a first for everything
right? Well I'm just going to tell u bout my first time at the Vans
skatepark and hope that it motivates some of you to go check it
out.
This was my first time at a skatepark, so on
the drive over there I was so stoked out. I couldn't keep still,
shoot I was going crazy. My friend told me it's just a skatepark,
"Obviously he doesn't skate." I said "Bro" just a skate park "Bro"
this is 60,000 sq. ft. of skatepark. Come on u got to be a little
stoked? Shoot I had goose bumps I was little nervous my first skatepark,
didn't know what to think or what people where going to think of
me. While walking to the skatepark as I got closer all I could hear
were trucks clinking, wheels screeching and spectators yelling in
awe at other skaters busting their tricks.
This was the coolest place I have ever been to
but that's me you got to check it for yourself. Finally I made it
to the entrance as I looked up I saw VANS SKATEPARK, dude I was
in heaven! I took a moment of silence just to check out the park
and thought to myself "hell ya, we got a skatepark, finally a place
for skateboarders to unite as one to have fun." It was a dream come
true, A skatepark in the Bay Area. Well I ran through the doors
to the fence and two words came to mind "MAN BRO." It was awesome
there were rails, two sweet pools, ramps, ledges, hips, and much
more you name it they got it ohh ya and vert ramps too. I was already
planning my run and I wasn't even skaten yet. There were "hella"
skaters there. I just wish I could have skated that day, I didn't
take no pads or helmet and I didn't have money to get in.
Well while watching the skaters I looked around
and I saw the coolest thing there were old school skaters keepen
it real showing the some new skateboarders how to ride the pools,
and new skaters doing the same showing the old skoolers some new
tricks. It was tight to see two different generations of skaters
skating at the same time helping each other out. But what blew me
away was I saw some girl skaters. I thought that was great to see
girls and guys skating together. Let me just say some of those girls
were tearin that park up. I was just breathless to see all this
happening in one place. Remember girl skaters it's your park too!make
some of those girl skater haters out there look stupid. HAHAHAHA
Well skaters I hope this little experience gets
you thinking bout going to the park. There's something for everyone
no matter if u like street or vert its there so come on down and
skate Vans Skatepark. I know you will have fun; just bring some
friends or come alone if u do don't worry, you'll make friends were
all skaters just there having fun. So if your looken to have some
