== Skateboard Culture ==
Skateboard culture has been known to revolve around figureheads from the [[MTV]] show [[Jackass]] in which a performer named [[Bam Margera]] does irresponsible and immoral acts for cheap laughs. Skateboard culture has adopted this attitude as their own, contributing to the rising problems with youth delinquency being linked to skateboarding. The defiant and antisocial attitudes of skateboarders has led to many local ordinances banning skateboarding in public places.

:* '''Skate Wax''' - Skateboarders have been known to apply layers of slippery wax to surfaces to facilitate their boards ''sliding'' or ''grinding'' over the surface. This has been known to cause accident and injury to innocent pedestrians who have slipped on surfaces made hazardous by inconsiderate skateboarders, often to the amusement of those who created the hazard. Skate wax is also notoriously difficult and expensive to clean from porous surfaces once applied.
