Welcome! I just started skateboarding again after not doing it for like 12 years. Wish I never stopped.
Thanks! I'm 41 and have been skateboarding off and on from around the age of 11-12...I don't remember lol! There were times I didn't skate as much and I'd say the same thing however the most important thing is that you're back. Even if it's just enjoying riding a board!
I opened my skateshop in November '08! I love skateboarding, it's a lot of what i'm about but not everything i'm about, if that makes sense....haha.
Thanks again!
That's awesome you have a shop always thought it would be fun to own one. I Think I am better now then when I was younger haha. I am 34 and I think I just understand it more and know my limits which makes me really work on more flat ground techy stuff rather than big crazy tricks.
Yea the shop is great, it gives me what I want out of life for the most part. It's not making me rich as I have to work another job in the mornings to help supplement, however money isn't really my motive in life. I get to spend ever day with my son after school at the shop and hang our with lots of cool people. That's rewarding to me.
I totally hear you on the skateboard side of things. I loved the times when there wasn't a care in the world regarding getting hurt cause I would heal in no time. Now I look at things from a risk reward standpoint. Although put me on a 4' mini ramp and in my mind i'm still gnarly haha
I know what you mean. I own a sandwich shop which wears me out and I have an item I have in the works for skaters that I want to create so maybe I can enjoy life more. The shop does great but boy is it a lot of work.
I wish I were a better ramp skater, but give me a box or a rail and ill skate it for hours. On my way out right now to do so.
Awesome man, and see I've always wanted to be better at skating a box/ledge with grind and slide variants. I've tried man but it's just really difficult for me lol. At any rate have a good one!
Welcome! I'm waiting for this rain to stop so I can skate.
Haha, rain and wind the 2 evils of skateboarding, lol!
and pebbles, don't forget pebbles
HAHA! So true man...so true
HAHAHAHA that reminds me of one morning in high-school me and my buddy got all friggen baked and skated to school......
We were coming up to a road, next thing you know .."ERRRRRR" he hits a pebble, he goes flying backword and his board goes onto the road and just got MUCKED by a car.

Fuckin snapped right in half.
Haha, at some point we are all subjected to the pebble, but I've never had a board get snapped by a vehicle. I've seen plenty of boards get hit but never broke.
