It seems like almost every MK1 owner I've met dresses like a sk8er, I'm just wonderin how many really do sk8? I've been sk8boardin on/off for 6 years, but you'd probably never kno it by my apparel. So lets see how many MK1'ers actually bust out on their sk8... http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif

i totally agree with you. most mk1ers look like they skate, or surf, skydive, bmx, snowboard, or some sort of dangerous extreme sport. i skate occasionally, but i don't have as much time as when i was in high school, plus i just gave my board to my buddies little brother. http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif

I tried it back in like 8th grade... Kept falling off.

I'll stick with BMX and Mt Biking.

I have been skateboarding for seven years. In the last two I have slowed down due to college and a girlfriend but I do still skate with my friends once in a while.
But I have only owned my 83 gti for about a month now.

skated on and off since about 10 years old. i mostly ride my hoffman bike now but nothing serious, just messing around. snowboarding is where it's at.

Re: Sk8boarding and VW owners....Is it just me? (JusAnothaRabbitRacer)

the only skating i do is 'on thin ice'.
But I am a pilot... that'll really mess you up too

I skate too, less now with other busying things, like a job and all that. 8 years now.. oi, that's awhile. Too bad I still suck

This will hurt y'all. I satrted skateboarding in 1979, still do that. Started riding BMX street like 5 years ago and I was a bike messenger for almost 10 years. Oh not to mention the years of Hardcore shows. need_a_VR6 Knows the details.

Re: Sk8boarding and VW owners....Is it just me? (phatazzgti)

been snowboarding for 8 years....but I can't ride a skateboard to save my life... fear of pain or something?

Re: Sk8boarding and VW owners....Is it just me? (JusAnothaRabbitRacer)

I used to skate. Then I inline skated. Now I just snowboard, because I'm not working on the car as much in the winter...It's too cold out!

Re: Sk8boarding and VW owners....Is it just me? (TimboAA)

i too have been snowboarding for almost 10 years.....and i will agree that driving a mk1 can be an extreme sport in itsefl...especially when they break and you have to push them across a busy intersection

hehe
