Ride & Grind (Chaser Cloud 9 via Lazada)

It’s been awhile since the first started to ride a penny board. It was my long time dream to learn how to skate and when I finally got one, I felt satisfied and ecstatically happy, thus I see to it to learn it quickly. After a few months of getting used to it and earning not just the skill but lots of bruises in my elbows and knees,  I finally able to ride it smoothly.

I got this board from Lazada. The Chaser Cloud 9 Series Skateboard costs Php 2,790.00, and I was a bit torn before in deciding what color to pick, but eventually I decided to pick this brown and orange combination.  

I’m still on the process of making my self comfortable to skate on whatever road surface. The humps could be quite tricky to run into as well as downward slopes.

 If I felt that its time for me to learn new tricks then that would be the time for me to decide on getting a new skateboard. At least I know now where to go and shop! The pro says, skateboards are easier to maneuver and perfect for other tricks too. But heres a realization I’ve learn when I started to ride the skate; the reason why riders usually wear 3/4 shirts or long-sleeves is for it to become a protection to your elbows whenever you fall off! I was able to notice that, when I first trip off the skate, check out my OOTD below. 

What I’m wearing: Shirt from FrancisM; Shorts from The Ramp Crossings; Shoes from Toms; Penny Board from Chaser

Can you guess how many bruises I got (ATM) from riding the skateboard?
