Crooked grind

A skateboarding trick where you ollie onto a rail, land your front truck on the rail, and grind the rail at about a 45 degree angle. Not a beginner trick.

Crooked's look neat.

Prep

One, male or female, who is completely focused on being popular. Often wear Element skate clothes, and DC apparel. Also, they might yell out cuss words in class when everyone is talking, and they then think they are quite the rebel, even though they don't get in trouble.

R: DEWD! I yelled 'F***' in class, and I didn't get in trouble. OMG I'm such a rebel! Im going to now shop for expensive skate clothes that a real skater would tear up in no time.

Shopping cart

A shopping cart is, to the untrained eye, a device for holding your groceries. But, to a skateboarder, a shopping cart is an obstacle you can ollie over, grind, and ride in. To find an abandoned one of these is like finding a ticket to FUN!

Today I ollied over a shopping cart from a 3 foot ledge.

Leap of Faith

A huge 2 story ledge next to a large double set that only one skater, Jamie Thomas, has ever landed.

The Leap of Faith is a sick spot, but I would only try it if I had a death wish.

skate poser

One who pretends to be a skateboarder. Most of these people are preps. These people can be recognized by their preppy status, and by their clothes. The brands most popular among posers are DC shoes, Element/Bam, and sometimes Circa.

Dude, Mary is such a poser. Yesterday, she was her normal preppy self, and now she is wearing DC.

Rock and Roll

Skateboarding trick where you do a rock to fakie, then do a 180 pivot in either direction off, and you come back in the stance you came into the trick on.

Rock and rolls are harder then rock to fakies.
