Ever wonder how many skaters there really are out there? No one knows! Skaters are like cockroaches - you turn the lights on, and we scatter! And, you just can't kill us, no matter how hard you try. And some of us are very very disgusting.
I get this question a lot, so when I know anything at all, I like to share it! I recently had a conversation with someone who knew a thing or two, and she shared the stat with me that the average participation in skateboarding from 2004 to 2006 was 14,433,000 skaters in the United States.

So, how many skaters are there now, then? Well, all I know for sure are more. And how does this compare with the rest of the planet? These are all good questions, and I'm sure that someone out there knows the answers! So, if you know something, or have a guess, or just want to lie online, please leave a comment below!
