From a small group of people bringing a slide to Putin Park and Ly Thai To Flower Garden to practice, the sport of slide has now become quite popular and is developing day by day in Vietnam.
Due to their risky nature, the majority of participants are usually young people with health and flexibility.
Becoming a skater requires courage, passion and perseverance. The first obstacle for players mostly came from the family. Since Skateboard is an adventure sport, no father or mother is confident in letting their children practice this sport.
As Vinh - a long-time skater shared, "No matter how proficient this sport is, accidents cannot be avoided. Every day I fall and every day I get injured. Heavy, there are cases of broken legs, while bracing and flatulence are normal".
When asked about skate how he has changed himself, Cong Le shared that "First of all, improved health, skiing also helps me relieve my stress. I get to meet friends and people with similar interests. Before, when I only knew about skating on X Game programs, I felt like doing it. When I slipped on my own board, I thought it was inseparable, it felt great."
Despite many challenges, skating has become a passion for skater. It helps them feel adventurous, excited every time they stand on a board and especially the feeling of winning themselves every time they conquer a difficult move.
