Day 2- How did I come up with the idea

 Well, first I was at Starbucks and I said "  I wanted to start a skateboard charity."   I wanted a skateboard charity because I thought it wouild be good for people and good for me.   Skateboarding is good for people becuase they use their hands for christair and they use their feet for doing ollies and so on.  It is creative too!  They might be able to invent new ways to skateboard or they might think about being a pro someday.   It is good for me because it's kind of like homework and free time at the same time.

So after I decided to start my charity and came up with the name,  I did some research on charities and the first thing to do was come up with a mission statement.

My mission statement is to get all kids to skateboard and give them something to look forward to.


I hope to collect donations of money to buy skateboards and helmets for 10 kids for this first Christmas of christshare.  There is a donate button at the top of the page here, every little bit will help.  If you can dontate a board or any safty equipment; we would love that too, just leave me a comment and my mom will get in touch with you.

I sign off today by sharing  information about one of my favorite skaters, called the "godfather of skateboarding: Rodney Mullen.  This is from his website...go here if you want to learn more.

Rodney Mullen is widely considered the most influential skateboarder in the history of the skateboarding. The majority of ollie and flip tricks he invented throughout the 1980's, including the flatground ollie, the Kickflip, the Heelflip, and the 360 flip are regularly done in modern vertical and street skateboarding.

Day One -Why the name?


 Why did I pick this name?  

 Well, a christair is a great skate board move.  It is when a skater grabs the board out from under them, does a christ on the cross pose in mid air, arms spread wide and returns the board to there feet to land.  It was invented by boarder Christian Hosoi and it is awesome.   So I thought, my charity was to get kids new skateboards and the chirstair is an awesome move. christair, share, christshare was born.

This first photo is my logo.  I drew it myself.  It is on my brochures and on my Facebook page.
Here I am doing a sweet jump.  Skateboarding is so fun.  You have to try it!



More to come later!
