Anybody who is over the age of
six knows that there is nowhere safe for skateboarders to skate. This prevents
young people from enjoying an active, energetic and adventurous pastime.
Just watch a local street for
a short while and note the steady stream of skaters speeding up and down the
footpaths. Toddlers can be trampled on and old ladies can be knocked down as
they struggle home carrying their cat food from supermarkets.
Skateboarding is a serious
sport that improves young people’s health. It increases fitness, improves
balance and strengthens the joints in knees and ankles. Although it appears to
be a solo sport, when groups practice together and compete to perform stunts or
runs they form firm friendships.
Young people should be
prevented from becoming overweight couch potatoes. If they are actively
involved in skating, they do not smoke, take drugs or break laws for fun.
Kids will always seek thrills
and excitement. They need to practice their 180s, 360s and Olliea’s free from
restrictions. We must build skate parks in the suburbs so that streets are safe
for small children and senior citizens and skaters have spaces where they can
race, chase, speed, and soar towards the sun.
