so true... but with skating, you had to get a new $50 deck every 2-3 months, some new $30 wheels every 6 months, some new $40 trucks every year, and some new $20-45 bearings every 6 months (or at least I did... I skated hard!)

with guitar, it's more of a one time fee for the guitar and amp, until you need new strings every month or two... then when you want to upgrade...

then again, I've put more money into my guitar then I have on any other hobby I've ever had... so, yeah I guess it is more expensive... oh well

I sucked at high ollies, the most I ever did was 3 boards interlocked primo-style. and that was a one time thing, my average would only barely clear two boards.

I would argue with you... but everyone else I've seen argue with you has been banned...

and actually, I don't mind "Nate" all that much. but usually it's older people who call me that... my friends call me nathan... or mellow mellow marshmellow... but that's a different story. lol
