Skatepark Etiquette and young skaters (Age 10-17)

I just got back from the skatepark in the next town over... And I gotta say, EVERY person, be them boarder or blader between the ages of 10 and 17 just did not have ANY skatepark etiquette. Standing in the middle of skate traffic doing nothing, cutting in front of you when you're about to drop in, letting their boards go flying and leaving them where the lay... I mean COME ON! You aren't the only person there, stop ruining the experience!

Just thought I'd add a little rant about my inability to tolerate idiots at the skatepark.

Lol I'm such an asshole at the skatepark just cuz I'm sick of kids that do this. There's a few towns around me that have older skateparks, and most of the people there are older, around my age, so they don't do that shit really... but the closest skatepark to me is in a town called Cheshire, it's all fucking rich snob brats driving their parent's Miata's to the skatepark, or getting dropped off in their H2's, and they just dick around. I HATE IT!

When that happens I take it upon myself to "accidentaly" run down some of the kids in the way. All the little groms in the park are more careful after that.

I hate when people do that. Even if they are older than me i still run into them as hard as i can on purpose, and im 13.
Also there are like 10 year old kids on kickscooters and bikes all over the skatepark. Its fucking annoying

damn i thought i was the only one that noticed this. it's only with the new crowd too. when i was younger i remember learning about skatepark etiquette when i first started skating like when i was 13. now i see 16 and 17 year old fuck tards just droping in on the mini when they first get up on the ramp not knowing the rotation it fucking pisses me off. P.S. it's nice to see that some of the old crowd is still here on aggressive.com i always wonder what happened to The Xsjado

Thats one thing I hate about parks.... Although the park I sometimes go to has some older BMX riders there that are like the police, they will make sure everyone is skating nice and no one is causing trouble.
