what about skateboarding/longboarding?

1. Tell the people a little about your self. who is Anthony Venditti?
    obviously I am Anthony Venditti, I usually do not associate my self with any forums or blogs etc.. but truth be told life can be quite the bitch sometimes and we all need somewhere to vent and a way or topic to do that and mine is skateboarding/longboarding... I love to go out a nice longboard that has nice smooth ride to it one that i can enjoy for a long time not a cheapy one to buy ten go out and sell it a month later i take pride when i go out on my board and that is just something else that comes along with the "stress free" feeling when i am on a longboard and it makes me feel so free and it is quite frankly one of the most soothing things to me it makes me feel like the most free person in the world!
  
2. What is your favorite discipline?
I would have to say probably just going down some hills because we all know everyone gets an adrenaline rush from picking up speed! That's how it all started for me I was hooked from then on....

3. How did you get into longboarding? Who/What got you into the idea?
I got the idea of longboarding when I was skating around town, i thought to my self "I wish the ride wasn't so bumpy as well being able to go faster without speed woobles at like 10 mph." from there I heard about longboarding and that it was a faster and smoother ride as well as more stable, just about everything I was thinking about that one day, so i went to zumiez in the mall to find out some more about them and then I went onto youtube and then I was hooked by some of the videos of things that I wish were me.....

4. How long have you been skating? What got you into the sport?
i have been "skating for about 6 years now but i just starting longboarding at the end of last year. i got into skateboarding because i would always admire and look up to the "pro" skaters and then i realized its not about being a "pro" its about going out and having fun at what your doing. and i enjoyed skateboarding when i was younger and now i am enjoying longboarding!

5. How many years have you been competing now? What is your top rank?
i have never competed in any events for skating, i do it for the fun and enjoyment of doing what i like and am able to do

6. Do you longboard alone or with friends?
currently I longboard alone however I would love to have some friends to go with me but I do not have any friends who longboard :[
