As you might guess, skaters like spending as much time as they can on their skateboards . Skaters love the feeling of freedom that comes with whizzing down the street or defying gravity in a skate park on four non-motorized wheels. So, you want to look like a skater? With the right shoes, an iPod , a hoodie , and, of course, a skateboard, you can.
