‘Do a kickflip!’ A day in the life of a Madison skate crew

Do+a+kickflip%21+A+day+in+the+life+of+a+Madison+skate+crew

Easily the most common request of a skateboarder: “Dude, do a kickflip!”

Since the opening of Madison’s first outdoor skatepark last September, the city’s skate scene has been on the come up. In this video, a Madison skate crew provides insights into the “SK8 or DIE” lifestyle, and describes the pros and cons of being a skateboarder on the University of Wisconsin campus.

“There’s unlimited potential for skateboarders. There’s ledges, there’s stairs, there’s ramps — there’s everything you’d want,” Samuel Fisher, a UW freshman, said.
