the old-school skaters were the soul skaters in the late 60's and 70's that skated when the waves were bad and they couldnt surf, they were the true skaters, today, u still have a couple real skaters, who enjoy it and are talented, but u do have some posers who try to do it just to look cool, they think its a trend or something, but it isnt...

Actually, there are tons. And you seem to be assuming that skateboarding is a white only thing. Plenty of 'gangstas', by which you obviously mean young, black males spouting hip-hop slang, actually skate. Half of my friggin family is spread across NY, trust me on this one.You people are so hung up on cliques, yet you claim not to care about them. Makes me wonder.
Huh.?!?!?I live in NYC.
I hardly ever seen sk8ters.Now most people just bike since it is faster.
And "gangstas" do not skate.In the hood they see u with a skateboard they steal it.
And there are white gangstas if u wanted to no.Not much though.
