OUR SKATE INSTRUCTORS

Jacob G. from Morrison, Colorado!

Jake has been skateboarding for 12 years and has been riding aboard since he could walk. Jake has experience with kids as an office assistant in schools. He also has experience with skaters of all levels and has been teaching and giving tips to other skaters since he started. With Jake, students can expect a relaxed session where they will learn at least one new thing about skateboarding, guaranteed. Even if you haven’t skated before Jake can teach you. It is Jake’s policy that “practice makes make perfect” and students can expect to learn a basis of skills before applying them at the park. Safety is also a big concern for Jake and parents can expect their child to be safe during the lesson. Jake will conduct safety checks on the board, and make sure they have all the correct gear on before the lesson begins to ensure a safe environment.

Eric G. from Lafayette, Colorado!

Eric has always loved helping children and taking them under his wing ever since he was a little kid. Even for all of the years, Eric has been skating you would always find him helping the kids and growing with the community. He is kind, compassionate, caring, attentive, and adaptable. When challenged with failure, he would never give up. He took his defeats and made them a success. No matter how big or small he would show the world that he is winning. He would show everyone that it is okay to fail, that getting back up again is the strongest thing you can do, and the reward of self-appreciation is something you do not do just for yourself, but for the impact, it has on others and watching them succeed with you. He would be a great teacher because his reward is succeeding with you, his community.

Learn Skateboarding in a 7 Day School

Skateboarding is a leisure activity, a work of art, or a method of transportation. Skateboarding has been molded and influenced by many skateboarders throughout the years. A 2002 report by American Sports Data discovered that there are 18.5 million skateboarders in the world. 85 percent of skaters polled had used a skateboard in the last year were under the age of eighteen, and 74 % were male. Those numbers have have doubled since the time of the study. In the coming years the skate parks tripled making skateboarding more accessible as publicly and privately owned skate parks and indoor skate parks are coming into the picture. The largest change has been the generation bubble that skateboarded in their youth and have grown up with the “X” Games explosion into the global mainstream of competitive sports and now sees it as a participation sport for their children as led by X-Games Athletes who are affiliated and instruct for our brand and web site.
