The only genres worth listening to while skating is rap and old school punk rock. I'm not even a huge rap fan, but it just goes so well with skating. It's like the yin to skatings yang.
If you have ever played any old playstation skate games such as Pro Skater, or the more modern Skate, you would hear a lot of rap and punk music. Why? Because they go hand in hand and the punk rock also amps up the skater. At least in my case it does.
It's not the hip-hop/rap combinations that a lot of todays music has become that goes well with skating, its more of the old school Public Enemy and Rage Against the Machine. For punk rock it would be The Dead Kennedys, Primus and Suicidal Tendencies.
If you were to lookup videos of skating on the web about 80% would contain rap, while about 15% would have punk rock. The last 5% is any of the weird music kids listen to these days that they sadly put into their videos.
