The Roof
The Roof
It was the summer of 2000 and my friends and I were skateboarding at my high school. The sun was hot as hell and we were sweating like crazy. I doubt there was even a cloud in the sky. It was so hot that we couldnt even skate, so we decided that we would wonder around the school and look for things to do.
Being a skateboarder really changes how you look at everyday life. On the street, anywhere, were always looking for more things to skate. Handrails, stairs, gaps, and things that would appear normal to anyone but a skateboarder. So anyways, we were walking around school and my friend Jon said
“Hey Chris, check out that gap up there, it looks makeable.”
” What, the one on the roof” I asked.
” Ya lets go up there and see if we can do it.” He replied.
” I cant believe Ive never seen that before.” Said Mike.
From the roof of our gym to the roof of the cafeteria there was a gap about eight feet high and eight feet long. It took us about half an hour to find a way up there and when we finally did get up there
