I second this! There is something special in the rag tag, rejects of society, put togetherness of skateboard and longboard communities that make them so special. I have never felt as accepted as I did when I finally met all the skaters I was seeing online at my first big longboard event, and it made me a community builder as a result. Then I saw what SteemSkate was doing in 2017, and I knew I had to bring the longboarding community here.
That delegation from @LionDani, as well as votes from @curie and the witness Wolf, has been making my posts do pretty well, which in turn has just got a few new members to join. If it goes well for these new members, I honestly expect a flood of ppl. This is a group of people, wjo despite being all broke skaters, managed to raise over a million dollars for cancer research with their nonprofit they started called Push For The Cure. They've also organized an international race circuit, and formed their own governing body to regulate it themselves.
We need more people thinking like you @Steemmatt !
Actually, i think my next video will be about how awesome these guys are, and why the whales of Hive should support such a community joining.
