My nephew loves everything about skateboarding. I think it allows him the freedom to express who he is. It’s a great outlet for him. I’d love to win these tickets for him!!
My son loves to skateboard and would be super stoked to go see this event!
Wow!!! What a terrific giveaway! I have 4 boys (ages 10, 11, 13 &a 15) that absolutely love to skate!!! I appreciate the fact that it keeps them active and it’s such a great outlet for expressing their individuality. They would really truly enjoy attending this event.
You WON 6 tickets. Congrats. Message me at info@gailsscoop.com to arrange pick up
I love skateboarding because I loved to skateboard when I was a kid and now my son and daughter both love to skateboard!
I loved skateboarding as a kid and even had a halfpipe that I practiced on with my cousins. My nephew who is 7 is just now really getting into sports and would love to see this. What a great giveaway!
I have never seen any kids that love to skate as much as mine. My 9 yr old son asks to go to the skate park every day, my 10 yr old daughter insists she will be a girl pro skater and even my 2 yr old daughter tries to scoot down hills on her mini skateboard. My kids would be so thrilled to be able to go to the skateboard event and would love to win free tickets since we are not able to afford to go and would be great way to spend a birthday since my oldest daughters birthday is on the 12th! We love checking out Gailscoop and looking for fun activities all year long!
What a great give-a-way!
I have 4 boys and they all ? watching the skateboarders do all their cool tricks at the skate park! They try to copy them but aren’t there quite yet.
Thanks Gailscoop for letting us know about this great event!
My husband has skated for years. I love just going to the park with him and taking pictures while he skates. He’s done it for so long that he has made it a special part of my life. I’d love to be able to surprise him with tickets to this weekends event. Thank you for the opportunity to win these tickets. I hope I can win some!
What a fun event. I know any skateboarding boy would love this. My son’s favorite activity is going to the PV skatepark. He is an accident waiting to happen but he loves it. I am certain this would inspire him to do all sorts of crazy things but he would be in heaven!
My son would LOVE to go see his favorite skateboarders! Pick Me… Pick Me!!!
My son loves to watch skateboarding and is learning himself! He is a dreamer too and would love tickets to see the show!
Fearlessness!!
Wow-what an AWESOME giveaway, Gail! My 14 year old son Zach, and 2 foster sons, Wes, 9 & Garrett, 11 would LOVE to go to this~they try to outdo each other all the time on the skateboards and ripsticks! Thanks for the giveaway~ but also, thanks for informing us about this event!
This would be a wonderful early Father’s Day event for my husband and our son! My husband at 34 has started taking our 3 year old son to the skate park… it is the extreme sport he never got to do as kid and is making sure our son doesn’t miss out! It is so fun to watch them “do tricks” together.
Sounds like fun!!! It would be great to take my oldest daughter and her friends to as a graduation present!!!
My kids would LOVE this!
I have 4 girls and most are tom boys. I am a single mom and I rarely get to get them event tickets like this. They love all stunts from biking to skating.
Wow we love skateboarding. I have a 21 year old boy. A 7 year old boy and a 5 year old boy they would love this so much. Thanks gailscoop for all of this wonderful stuff!! I find out so much that I would have never known about without your site
My son would LOVE to see this and I would LOVE to take him!!! It looks like a BLAST! WE LOVE YOU GAILSSCOOP!!!
I would love to have tickets. My 14 year old son has always been very athletic. Things like skateboarding, rip-stick, and uni-cycling come natural to him. Last April he was diagnosed with cancer and in July he lost his leg. He sold his skateboard, rip-stick, and unicycle thinking he would not be able to use them again. He is strong and stubborn though and has since ridden a rip-stick through Wal-Mart and once again mastered the unicycle. i know he would love to watch all of these guys in action.
My son Alex says that skate boarding is fun. “It gives me the thrill of knowing I could get hurt any second”…
isn’t this what a Mother wants to hear! But boys will be boys!
I just started my new role as a stay at home dad. This would be a great outing for my o kids and myself.
Thanks,
Samuel
What I LOVE about skateboarding is that it started when I was a child into the sport it has become today, and the kids keep making it fresh and new. No one kid is alike, and skateboarding is just one more chance for some kid to express him/herself in a way that works best for him OR her.
And now I hear Free Falling by Tom Petty in my head and wishing I was that young girl skateboarding and showing the world what a strong, unique, independent woman I could be. And hopefully my two children see that, too.
Both of my kids love to watch stunts. Our Parks and Rec. just got a new skate board park and they love to go and watch. What fun that would be to go!!!!!!!!!!!!!
W/4boys-would love to win this
Would love to take my son – and some of his buddies if I win the 6!!
You won 2 tickets! Message me to arrange pick up info@gailsscoop.com
I love knowing that my son has such a broad array of options to have a good, healty, happy, childhood. If that means a few scrapes and bruises from a skateboard, that is just practice for life. The local municipalities have done a great job of getting skate parks, disc golf courses, and parks safe and clean for us.
My daughters absolutely love anything that involves skill and risk at the same time. This would be an awesome show to see!
MY KIDS LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE SKATEBOARDING AND I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE GAIL’S SCOOP!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT AN AWESOME GIVEAWAY AND WEBSITE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WE’D LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE TO GO!!!!!!!!!!
My son is a skateboard fanatic – he would be thrilled to see this!
Love skateboarding – it’s modern dance on wheels!
My boys were just asking about this last night as some of their buddies are going
They love to skateboard on their make shift ramps in the backyard
My fingers are crossed that I can surprise them with tickets
Thank you gails scoop for the opportunity to enter we love your newsletter
My step-son has enjoyed skateboarding for years! Most of his friends have found other hobbies over the past few years, but he is still skateboarding at 16. I know he would enjoy going to the Sprint Center and seeing the “pros”
Gail, what a great opportunity to see something like this live and take my 6 year old boy that is completely fascinated by skateboarding!
Thank you for all the wonderful newsletters that keep us moms in the loop and allow us to be a part of fun events.
