    Hey ill be skating 9 years this year.. I use to be able to skate pretty well but I broke my ankle and since then I just chill and try enjoy it more then progress!

    Theres so many good skaters now in Ireland so trying to keep up is pretty hard unless your naturally talented.

    You'd want to be pretty amazing to be the best.
    I skate with a guys who people would think is one of the best in Ireland.
    Skating with him just makes me feel like shít.:rolleyes: Haha, nah but really like, he's something else when he gets on a board. Just back from America skating with pro's and getting footage and now he's off in Europe to get more.(i think:eek:)

    What I'm saying is, it'll take a long time and some serious balls to get to that level.
