"Hi I'm Ryder Mackey and I'm here with Expert Village and I'm here to talk to you about knowing your limit when your out on the street or when your at a skate park skateboarding. It's very important to have fun while skateboarding that?s the whole point of the sport. Um it is a very fun activity, lots of neat tricks that you can do um and it can get dangerous.

Um this is fine I did the same and you will come with better tricks. You will learn faster this way. But you also need to know your limit, um in order to be safe. You don't want to try a huge stair set when you know you can't do it, cause there's a good chance that it will result in an injury. Um so always know your limit, and have the strength to not go past your limit in any situation. Even when your friends are cheering you on cause you want to stay safe and have fun while skateboarding."
