The skate/scooter/bmx state of mind.

[Jon.]

I really started to notice this a little after I started skating back in 07.

But once you start doing any of these sports it seems like everything you look at turns into a potential gap/rail/spot or whatever. My outlook on everything around me completely changed. Even during the time when I had quit all of these for about 2 years I still looked at everything with this divine possibility.

Discuss your thoughts about it here.

pritty sure this is already a thread..but i dont really think about it that much unless im riding around.

Every time I go to Seattle (like 30 minutes away) I think, oohh look at that stair gap to rail!!

 

[Jon.]

I used to think about it with literally everything I saw. Now it's alot less but still there.

 

[dezbert]

Yea, I'm the exact same way.

 

[CJ Treihart]

everything looks rideable to me its all i think and i always think of shit like what if

 

[tylerbillman]

I always look around for spots, ALWAYS.

Haha there is this plaza in town and everytime I walk through there I sit down and think of all the lines. lol.

And there is a sick street hip on the way out to my dads work and I always look at it when I go past lol

every time im in a car i just imagine that theres a rider/ skater/biker right outside the window doing grinds and flips and whatnot over everything. hahah
also everywhere i go, pretty much everything looks like a skate spot, its strange

 

[Ryanscoot]

Weird, me too.

 

[Micah.]

This is almost exactly how I feel. Unfortunatley, most of the spots I see while I'm on the car are really far away and I know I might never ride them.

 

[michaelchavez]

wenever im in the car i ALWAYS do this, or just walking around

 

[Derek Seay]

i always think of the most impossible gap ever!

 

[Chase Marsh.]

I like to look at things that nobody could do.
