Army of one.I am so glad to read and buy your mags over here in this forsaken for·sake tr.v. for·sook , for·sak·en , for·sak·ing, for·sakes 1. To give up (something formerly held dear); renounce: forsook liquor. 2. country, Afghanistan, city of Bagram, where many poor Afghanis work for lass than a dollar a day. I have now been in this sandy mountainous region of crap for seven months now and it still sucks pretty bad. Day by day continues to go by without my board and my freedom. And to me that is what skating is entirely all about, just getting on your board and thrashing, letting out your aggression on the asphalt instead of something else. Feeling completely free to do whatever you want, whenever you want, with total control over the board and the whole situation. But those days are fucked up now. For example, my hometown where I used to skate? You can't anymore, because these fuckers put blocks on top of all of the ledges. I swear that the people today just like to take everything away from us. They tell us skaters that we are supposed to go to skate parks and do what we want, do our thing only there. Well, the thing is, they don't know Don't know (DK, DKed) "Don't know the trade." A Street expression used whenever one party lacks knowledge of a trade or receives conflicting instructions from the other party. a damn thing because to me the street is the soul of skateboarding skateboarding Form of recreation, popular among youths, in which a person rides standing balanced on a small board mounted on wheels. The skateboard first appeared in the early 1960s on paved areas along California beaches as a makeshift diversion for surfers when the ocean . It's the freedom of just letting go and zoning out in your little world. However, do not get me wrong. I also love to skate those few skateparks, such as the Van skatepark A skatepark is a purpose-built recreational environment for skateboarders, bmxers and aggressive skaters to ride and develop their sport and technique. A skatepark may contain half-pipes, quarter pipes, handrails, trick boxes, vert ramps, pyramids, banked ramps, full pipes, stairs, and a couple of other good ones. In a few months I'll be able to get on board. Jason Lewis Jason Lewis may refer to
