i ride park cos there's shit all street spots in my town. pay my bus fares and ill ride in the citys.

also, ramps feel good. sheer drops onto flat concrete feel bad. ive got nothing against street but its more effort and im lazy. ramps push for me.

hating on park is a trend just like hating on kota. for those who say you can't get creative riding park you are anything but right, for example stan smirnoff. he finds the craziest transfers and gaps at park. park is really opens up your mind when i ride park, thinking of new lines to hit in a bowl, different was to hit a quarter, and what can i throw at this spot. i do see the street side of this but just cause you like it doesn't mean everyone does, so i guess ride want you want don't let some ass 4654554 miles away tell you how to ride
 
my local is boring as fuck and so is the street but i prefer street because i am terrible at park haha

Nice sig -__- lol
Anyways, yeah I ride street more because everyone at the park is always so competitive and think you suck if you can't bri. Besides I don't want to spend all day at a crowded park where I see the same thing for 10 hours when I could ride a bunch of new spots

It builds unique riding. I myself only like to see street riding now because I'm fucking sick of how many people just ride halfpipes. Street has a lot of vareity(SP?) in it. I don't force it onto people but I just remind them that if you have all spine jumps, flyout and 540 airs in an edit you'll be sure to get some negative reviews.
Park riding is really annoying in my eyes cause it is consuming most of the sport, making everyone think we just crowd parks and snake.
Street riding is a ton of fun and looks SICK when it's properly filmed. Street is also what brings people to see the sport for how it compares to say skateboarding. Showing that it too can actually give an image close to street BMX or something like that. And really we are in dire need of more people in this sport because of how many people who are against us riding in parks, getting absolutely 'bullied' in public and anywhere we can be seen.

And honestly, what would you rather watch?
