“So Tony Hawk is a loser???????”
Worse than a loser, he is the god of losers.
Skateboarding is a way of life man, not a sport. I am buying a house in a skateboarding retirement community in florida, Tony Hawk is the first investor. Yea BABY!!! I am getting in on the ground floor, wait until all these 50 year old losers with skateboards retire I am going to be rich. RICH!!!!!
Hey, Chuck. The Homage folks are already involved. Great minds think alike!
Hey, you two-bit cynics predicting NIMBY anti-anti forces, the group proposing the new design for the park (the skateboard stuff is only part of it) is composed of well-respected neighborhood leaders, including Sue Wolfe, President of the Boerum Hill Association, and Jo Anne Simon, future candidate for City Council. The group is eager for more volunteers, so if you are interested in helping design and fundraise for this park, contact Sue.

“Anyone over the age of 25 that has a skateboard is a LOSER.”
Wrong. Anyone over the age of 18 that has a skateboard is a LOSER.
5:24 – That’s like saying skiers over 25 are losers. It’s a sport like anything else.
“The nioses coming out of the projects next door at all hours will easily drown out any skateboarders.”
Actually the project (Wyckoff Houses and Gowanus Houses) are betwen two and four blocks away, not “next door,” but I get your drift.
