Nice MC, I’ve always found peoples need to “control” skating bothersome the clique-ishness the act of inclusion or exclusion for the “right” to dictate the who, what, when, or where of something so open; People are boxed in from all sides at an ever increasing pace and scale. And in a search for a more spacious form of self expression people seem to get a little lost without the tools they are so familiar with, the ones they picked up in high school or the work place so they seem to “go with what works” the irony being it was precisely this that they wanted to escape from, the core experience we are left with is the impotence of the individual no doubt… thats all before you step on the board and give everybody the finger!
