Skating Can Change Lives

Video about how kids in Pakistan can have a real hobby in the shitty situation they have to live in. Also shows some strong push for women, for those feminists out there.

Such an amazing video. Honestly I'm a skateboarder before anything I've been skating since i was about 9 and I'm 19 now I've picked up sponsors and do it every day. It has given me so much in life. I have so many friends from it. Met so many good people from it. Traveled the world because of it. I have learned so many lessons and I have learned so much about myself and who I am because of skateboarding. When I'm on my stick it's just me and my skate, nothing else in the world matters, girls, money, grades, parents, nothing matters. It is the best therapy in the world. I live to skate and I will do it until the day I die.

I also love how that girl is involved in skating, despite being frowned upon by her own father. I'm glad she has found something that truly defines her independance and I hope she gets to pursue her hobby forever.

This shows the true meaning of skateboarding and what it needs to be like.
