23) Mason R. From Houston, TX (18.1 mi)
Mason R has been skating since the age of ten, over ten years of experience. In the past, Mason has provided skating lessons to young adults and children as young as nine, for the duration of a few weeks, free of charge. Mason would describe skateboarding as his number one passion, dating back to his roots in California. He can professionally perform around forty different tricks and techniques, with enough extensive experience to pass on the knowledge to any aspiring skaters. These include, but are not limited to, the nightmare flip, the 360 no-comply, and the tre-flip. Mason’s friendly, outgoing, and patient personality, along with his passion and experience would make him ideal. His young age also makes him ideal for beginning skateboarders looking for an instructor they can easily relate to. A self-taught skateboarder, he understands the amount of patience and persistence needed in order to learn new techniques, and over all improve one’s skills. He understands the need to begin with teaching foot stances, pushing techniques, turning styles, and ways to stop the board. Mason’s combined passion for the sport, experience, skills, and history of teaching beginners would make him the ideal skate instructor. |

Experienced Skateboard Instruction with over 25 years of skateboarding experience. Im great with the little kids and great with adults. I can break down instructions so that a student can learn the basics of safety, park rules, and having fun. I have two kids of my own, so I understand how a young person may act, and how to keep their attention by having fun. Also, letting the parents feel good about the students safety is super important. |

He wishes to share all of the knowledge he has with the community in order to encourage young skaters to pursue the sport. In the 11 years of skating, Justin has learned a lot of lessons that comes with it. He knows exactly what to say when a client is having trouble. He has skated for local skate shops in Las Vegas, NV; one being “FIZZ” skate shop. He has gained an exceptional amount of recognition and experience from riding with this company. FIZZ skate shop not only allowed him to get more recognition as a local skater in Las Vegas, but it also gave him more opportunities to skateboard. Experience is key when it comes to teaching a child how to skate. It is a lot better to have an experienced trainer than someone who has lack of knowledge and little experience. Justin is currently enrolled at the University of Las Vegas, NV as a full-time student, therefore he is a motivated individual. He is very outgoing and prefers to be outdoors at all times of the day, presumably skating. Lastly, what makes Justin a great skateboarding instructor is his work efficiency and determination. The type of determination and passion Justin brings to the skate park will easily encourage a lot of young kids to gain the desire to land or complete the task they want to on the skateboard. Whether it be something as simple as turning on the board, or riding the board. He is an exceptional motivator and brings a lot of enthusiasm to the park. Justin is skilled on and off the skateboard. An under-looked skill of his is with girls. He is like the Elvis Presley of the African-American race. Girls simply cannot resist his smooth style and perfect body. If Justin is instructing your child, it is almost guaranteed at least 30 girls will be screaming your childs name. If you happen to have a daughter, watch out. |
