So A Lot Of You Have Forgotten Where Skateboards Came From

Not a lot of kids understand that the rollerskate and the skateboard came form the same roots. With there being a big growth in the industry in the last five years.  This boom has made people forget how hard it has been in the past to buy  long skateboard thing in the old days. When every skateboard shop in america funnily have excepted  longboards to the market after so long. Back in the old days you had to find old rollerskates to use as replacement parts just because there was no skateboard shops that carried longboard anything back then, so we where stuck finding rollerskate at thrift store that had the hardware you needed.  After seeing how the late 90's where like and now to see what it is like in the 2013 year, thing have really turned around for this market that was deemed, that would never make it from the other skateboard market people.  To see that we have tuned around after years of struggling.  The skateboard came from the rollerskate and there is a lot that we can say (thank you) for now that longboards are excepted into the main stream market.
