Skateboarding Helps People Mentally

Not only does skateboarding give anyone who tries it physical benefits, but it also gives you mental strength as well. What I mean when I say this is when you learn any sport it disciplines you to try harder at it in order to get better by improving your speed or landing a trick you've been trying for a while. Skateboarding helps you mentally by getting you doors and away from everyday life and the stresses that come with it. The more you skateboard the stronger your self-confidence will get which allows you to move on to more challenging tricks and pretty soon you could be doing tricks no one else knows how to do. Skateboarding also gives you better reflexes because you adjust to falling over or whether somebody might run into you or not and eventually adjust on how to avoid these situations by turning faster, getting off your board in time, and learning to crash without hurting yourself. Skateboarding also helps with overcoming fears, and if you were never to overcome your fears you'll never progress at the sport. Kids will naturally want to do the sport  which will make them more happy with their family for allowing them to do the sport and giving them support.
