4. Read about Jim and David. Why do they like being part of their urban tribe?




Skaters: a freestyle     

 Hi, my name is Jim. I am a skater. Skaters have a simple style. We prefer wearing light shorts, skinny denim jeans, T-shirts, dark trainers or skate shoes. We love skating in parks and on the streets, but skate parks are the best places for us. They have ramps and obstacles, and it’s safer than skating on the streets. The most exciting part is when we jump in the air and do tricks. Skaters are an urban tribe, but we are more interested in having fun together. Looking good or competing with other groups isn’t important to us. We love skateboarding and that’s why we do it.




Floggers: a colorful style   

Hello! I’m David. I’m a flogger. The name ‘flogger’ comes from ‘Fotolog’ – a website where we share our photos and comments. Everyone there has a love of fashion. Floggers wear fun, colorful clothes. For example, we often wear brightly coloured jeans or trousers, fluorescent T-shirts and colourful trainers. We love music. We like dancing to electro house and listening to techno music. I love being a flogger. We have lots of fans who follow our styles. It’s very popular with teenagers because everyone enjoys taking photos of themselves! It’s a great urban tribe.
