Moving board Romantics have about given up on skateboarding. Riding a concrete wave on a street surfboard . . . breaking arms alon~ the way ... doesn't make for a poet1c statement. 路There are some hardened veterans who continue to skateboard, not for its poetic grace, but for the fun and challenge that it can have. Jim Mammel, sophomore, has been skateboarding for two years. He started after seeing many of his friends doing it. He says that the sport was great in populanty a few years ago, but has been declining lately, because "too many people have been attempting to skateboard without first learning about the dangers and problems you can encounter. Many people have even been killed because of carelessness." Mammel doesn't recommend skateboarding for the faint-hearted or for anyone who is afraid of falling . "Its like anything else," he said, "in the beginning, there are hard knocks, but when you get the hang of it, you can have a lot of fun with it."

Heads up. Jimmy Mammal, sophomore, must pay close attention to pick a clear path for his skateboarding stunts.
