Just think about what would interest you in skateboarding then direct your questions to obtain that information. When did they start, how much practice time, competitions, etc..\nWho knows, you might have a future as a reporter.

I love boogieboarding. Im 14 and i have gotten very good at it.  I can do tricks and even stand up on it.  Its a little easier to do then surfing, but learning how to do tricks is very hard.  I have boarded on a ten foot wave, it is hard.

If you are a top rated High School basketball player, only the NBA is off limits.  A top rated HS football player, no NFL.  But there are other leagues you can get paid to play in.\n\nA HS golfer?  Sure you can.\nA HS Tennis Player?  Sure.\nA HS Baseball player?  Sure.\nA HS Soccer player?  Sure.\nA HS CC/Track athelete?  Sure.\n\nOf course, if you just mean will you EVENTUALLY have a chance at going pro, then the answer is yes.  Heck, you don teven have to be good to have an opportunity.  Just have to make the most of it when you get the chance.

sure! everything is possible in this world. but keep in mind that\n1.never get addicted to smokes and alcohols\n2.improve your athletic side\n3.always drink milk (it has lot of calcium so it will make your bones stronger)\n4.if you really decided to become a pro-soccer player never forget what you want and don't lose your motivation!\n5.always keep a soccer ball with you and learn cool moves and tricks!\n6.search for famous players' biography and history. and start writing yours ;)\n\nBest of Luck!

I have no idea but if you want to join I think you should start practicing for what you would like to do like figure skating or somthing.

My first suggestion would be to play all the time.  Just look at every successful sports star...they played all the time!  To be successful in America, fitness is a major part of the college soccer scene.  I would suggest asking for a fitness guide and make sure you pass all the fitness tests with flying colors at the start of preseason.  To go pro, especially to get drafted into the MLS, you need to stand out...so work your ass off until you are better than everyone else!  Play soccer, 1v1, 3v3, 11v11, whatever, all the time!

im with you... it seems like everytime i try to do an impossible i crack a nut... seriously, it never works. my friend is the best skater [non pro] that ive ever seen, and he cant even do an impossible. i guess u would be able to do it if you like ollied higher or u were higher up and jumped and did an impossible... beats me...plus,  i cant afford any ramps or rails to get more air anywase... lol

first, buy all your equipment so you don't get hurt. then, try to stand up on your skateboard before you try any tricks. try yor best and slowly begin doing tricks.good luck and put all your heart into it.

I dunno, do you know how to do what they do? If so, are you practicing regularly? Are you as good or better than a pro? Are you committed to becoming a pro? If you answered yes to two or more of the above questions, the answer is yes, most likely.

Well it's gonna take awhile to do the tricks that you see the pros like Bam Margera, Tony Hawk, Joey Brezinski, Mike V......ok all the pros, what they do so if you don't have time then I would just do it as a stress reliever.\n\nStart out with going straight. Gradually go faster and faster. Then try turns. Skateboards can turn pretty sharply and it can be surprising. \n\nAfter you get a feel for your board try a ollie. A basic trick. Just bend your knees, push on the tail of your board, and sometimes rolling your lead foot forward helps too! (helps the height of the jump)\n\nAfter you master a ollie try to manual. It's a pretty easy trick. But you will have some nasty falls trying this one. But it's all in the game.\n\nAfter you can do these two tricks, you can do anything. A ollie is the grounds for most tricks you see people do. Everyone has to start somewhere. The next tricks you learn are up to you and time. All tricks take time to learn. \n\nThen once you get better, try ramp tricks. Then you can decide what you like better Vert or Street. Personally I like both. The thrill of rocketing down the Vert ramp, olling curbs, boxes, and anything that I run into on the street. But you don’t have to pick one. But if you do, there are tons of tricks that you can learn for both. Kickflips, heelflips, melons, shoveits, acid drops, nollies....the list goes on forever.\n\nGood luck, take your time, have fun, ROCK ON!!

No such thing sorry dude.. This is not even a proffesional sport so this answer can change depending on where you live and what your skill level is.

Ok well, believe me i know what im talkin about. I think you do need skateboarding shoes... I have been skating for about 5 years... and i can NEVER get near enough the same... just good grip with reugular gym shoes. It makes it basically impossible to ollie at all. Skating shoes pretty much work all the same, i pick whatever looks the best... but i recently found out that DC shoes are more for showing off then actual skating... But ya... I think you do definetly need skating shoes...\n\nAlso, once you start wearing them, you will find out that skating shoes are MUCH more comfartable than regular shoes...
