Yesterday, With ONE membership pack to the Irish Skateboard Association to giveaway, we asked: Tell us your first skateboarding experience.

Adrian Conway wins the pack with this bruising recall:

The first time I stepped on a board was about 17/18 years ago. A mate of mine came to my house to show off his new toy!

I went outside and I asked for a go. I placed the board on the ground and put my right foot forward and the thing went flying. My left foot stayed planted and my right foot went with the board down the street.

Landed on my right hand cutting it up and my face bit the floor and ended up chipping my front tooth and to this day, still the worst injury I ever got. This accident started the best eight years of my life.

Mmf.

Thanks all
