North Carolina State University in Raleigh has a seriously detailed set of rules around the campus, but thankfully, two skateboarding tricks were recently decriminalized, according to a story in The News & Observer.
Without comment, the Board of Trustees approved changes to the university’s transportation policy last week that decriminalized two of the most modest skateboard tricks: the ollie (wherein the back foot pushes the tail of the board down and the front foot lifts the board into the air) and the manual (riding on just two wheels, similar to a “wheelie” on a bike).
Sadly, “grinding” is still a crime at the school, but it’s nice to know that simply rolling around is legal.
