sandy learns to skate

smp learns to skateboard. One day smp looked out the window and saw a boy coming down the hill to their house on a skateboard. it looked as though he was going really fast! his movements were very fluid almost like cooked spaghetti! to make things even better he was doing s shaped lines...this is was too perfect sandy had to meet this kid...she had to let him know about his new name! as the spaghetti skater neared the end of the hill he got really low on his skateboard and began to learn to one side creating a loud noise as his wheels slid along the concrete.

after getting off his skateboard, he looked up and saw sandy, all awash with envy at his skill. he smiled after seeing sandys pretty eyes and honest smile, after taking a second to catch his voice he said ‘hello my name is , what is your name? Sandy could wait long enough to reply and bursted out MY NAME IS SANDY WILL YOU TEACH ME TO DO THAT!?

was surprised at her excitement and was actually a bit startled... he once again tried to speak but his voice just was having a hard time getting past his smile....”sure i always like skating with someone new, do you have a skateboard?”

yeah my dad rides them all the time, but what you did was pretty amazing! can i call you the spaghetti skater...because thats what you reminded me of going down the hill all s turning and stuff...”

“yeah thats a super cool name...ill have to practice my s turns more! ‘ go ask your dad if you can use his skateboards..im excited to see all these old boards!”

sandy ran up the stairs to her dads office where he was busy ‘hey dad can i borrow one of your skateboards...my new friend is going to show me how...he’s really good.”
Mr potatoes replied..” wow, you want to learn? id love for you to learn but make sure you are careful and if you want, wear some pads.”

sandy ran downstairs to the garage and told to follow...they opened a closet and found about 10 skateboards all neatly placed in the closet.

“wow!!! look at all these boards”....all the boards were different shapes and sizes....sandy grabbed one that was fit her size and a pair of skate shoes her mr potatoes had bought for her.

she was ready to roll.

was impressed that she was so eager, as well as being well equipped, “your dad must be an awesome skater”

“yeah he is, hes been doing it for like 30 years or something”


an embarrased smile overtook sandys face as she looked over at sketti...he was amused and did his best to hold back his giggles.
‘ are you regular or goofy’ ...
sandy looked puzzeled at this question ..a little bit of both i guess’
the skaters smile grew even bigger
‘no i meant, which stance feels natural..right foot forward is goofy and left foot forward is regular..’
ohhh..ha..oh..umm i am goofy...
okay well lets go check out the skatepark..it should be empty right now..

as the duo entered the park the spaghetti skater took off shredding as usual. the newest trick he was learning was called a frontside air. sandy watched his stringy golden brown hair play in the passing winds as he zipped and zoomed around each hip and transition.

at that moment sandy knew this what something she wanted to do well.
sandy was at an advantage as her father has cruised around with her on surfboards and long skateboards..she had an idea of how these things felt. she stepped on the board and started rolling along...as she figured out how to steady herself her comfort started showing. the spaghetti skater cruised over and rolled next to her watching her with curious eyes..she didn’t look like this was her first time...
‘you are a natural...do you surf too?

‘no but i’d like to learn...’
