Should I just give up????

Seriously, I'm cosidering it. Every year, I never get better. I can only bunnyhop a foot high on flat, and can tailwhip once in a while. 360s never came to me, and I'm really getting frusterated with myself. I mean, my left side is weak from cerebral palsy, so my body is unbalanced but no matter how hard I try to get better, nothing f*cking works. I'm 16 and my dad says Im getting a little too old for scootering. My mom doesnt care, and part of me wants to just quit altogether. But part of me wants to push myself harder and harder to achieve what Ive tried to for years. So, should I give up, or stick with it? Thoughts?

if you like it, stick with it. it can get frustrating but just try your best and watch vids and tutorials to help learn tricks. just have fun with it. just tell your dad he doesn't know what he's talking about.

Ask andy micky i fucking shred cuz i push my self till I cant do it anymore. i never give up. And i tell all the haters to suck my balls cuz they cant do half the shit i can do. Im 17 bro my dad doesnt understand either but i dont give a fuck. DO WHAT YOU WANT! ITS YOUR LIFE NOT THERES!

Do you really think anybody is going to come in here and tell you to quit? As long as you are having fun, why would you quit?

If your having fun with it, then continue.
If your not enjoying it, then why continue doing something you dont enjoy if you have the choice?

just make sure you're havin fun. if u can't do tricks, learn to ride hell stylish and flowey like and then try tricks once in a while. imo some people are more natural than others. I, for example, am 100% not natural as it took me 9 fuckin hard years to get to my level. i know other people who are almost as good as me an only hav been riding for a year. just find someone else who is about your level and just ride with them, that way there is some competition in it and you just push yourself harder. just go with what you wanna do tho...

Cut a long story story short without the gay -----
If you like it and have fun, do it; if not, quit.

Quit whining about it and ride. You're not gonna get better by thinking, and not everyone learns super fast. It's taken me so long to learn the few tricks I have, but I got those because I didn't give up.

it doesnt matter how good you are. if youre having fun, then keep riding.
dont get frustrated and over think stuff, just ride, have fun, and youll get better
 
Look. I have rode for a little while. I can just tailwhip. But that comes with sticking in.
Ride around for fun. Have fun. Dont push too hard. Relax.
180's. Ride a bit fakie. Then build. Stick with it.
I thought the same like a week ago. Now I can tailwhip constantly.
I ride street. Without a park, its hard.
