Beginning Skateboarding amoung experts should really be the title....these are pictures of several of the bigger kids mixed in with beginners Gabriel and Isaaiah.
Glenhaven is a Portland Parks skatepark. Its on 82nd street by James Madison Highschool. The kids were a little intimidated by the big kids on the first day....these pictures and video are from the second day. When it seems that they felt comfortable to work on new skills. Isaaiah worked on skating with her Heelys, and Gabriel studied the ramp. Next time Isaaiah is going to wear more padding....Gabriel's padding came in handy as you can see.
Here is a short video that I made with Windows Movie Maker...after I converted the video files with Prism Video Converter..from mov to avi...(free!) I am hoping that my older step boys are going to love this skate park...I'll need to stock up on the padding...and get some black helmets with skulls on them from Goodwill...so that the helmets will be cool enough for teenage boys to wear....wish me luck.
Super Cool! Especially now that my computer will all allow me to view the slideshows and video. You guys do such fun things! --Aunt Beth
