Decide to go on a roadtrip. Do it the next day. Don’t make any plans before or during, just exist. Float along with friends who become family in a matter of days. Skate your face off. Skate hills you never thought you could handle, and do it without any hesitation - even if it gets sketchy or wet. Keep up with the skaters who inspired you to start. Be proud of yourself. Drink an absurd amount of beer and rum. Spill your heart out. Get more hungover than you ever have in your life, and take a day of rest from skating. Absorb the scenery, the air, the people. Smoke spliffs all day long. Don’t check the time, ever. Meet everyone with a hug. Get inspired by the locals. Try new things on your skateboard. Go faster, slide faster, trust yourself. Go to a rave for the first time, take care of your homies when they can’t take care of themselves. Wake up at a place called Treasure Island. Keep skating. Skate every spot the locals bring you to, even if you think you don’t know how to skate it. Let loose, get groovy. Accept some compliments. Don’t feel like you have to do anything. Do everything. Get personal and honest with the people who care and want to help you. Still, don’t check the time. Get dirty and smelly. Start heading home, but stop at your favorite spot on the way. Huddle cuddle to keep warm. Camp out on the top of a mountain, wake up to the breath taking view and skate down completely solo. Get in your head. Hike back up. Tell your friends you love them. Go home changed.
