Welcome everyone from all over the world who as a passion for skateboarding, especially if you're getting back into sk8in or still skateboarding in your 50s plus Skateboarding was my passion growing up in Manchester England in the 80s. We had fun times skating from Wythenshawe to 50/60 aka Split Skates Skateboard Shop and American Sports in Manchester City Centre. We would all meet up and skate the Cown Court Banks and Oxford Road Banks too. Let me know if you was from the UK and you went to these places too.
it's called a Jaw Bone and it is for grabing to do airs or other tricks not to protect the nose. If you want nose protection then you would put on a nose bone. two different types of hardware for the nose.
i thought that graphic was the "vato rat" i had one in 85 it was blue. you need to bend your knees more my man. have you ever used a swing. thats the same thing you do when you hit a transition. we call it pumping. keep your knees bent a little.
Had that one back in 80’s Loved it.. white with clear grip and stickered.. my favorite Gonz from the later 80’s was the man and woman Gonz drawing in green stain.. I think his last Vision model.. fun board.
Awesome! Subscribed! I am 51, and just this week bought a new board - my first one for 30 years or so. Just waiting on some dry weather, but until then I will watch you for inspiration.
I’m 41 and started back after 2 decades off. I skate with my son now. Super fun but it hurts a lot worse now when I fall than before lol. Love the video!
It sure does hurt more now we're a lot older. It's all about having fun Enjoy skateboarding with your son hope he sticks at it. Thanks for watching have a great weekend
Man I was really surprised by that pogo! You definitely got them if you practice a bit. Anyways, awesome vid, definitely waiting for more! And btw here's some helpful advice, try to bend your knees instead of bending backwards.
Im 40 and just got back on a skate this season after 20 years. It has been a hell of a Re-learning curve.. I fell in love again and its amazing. Also, that fall at the end looks so familiar, lol. Stupid stand still shuv its can be nasty !! I'm currently working on landing a kickflip again, i have landed 2 but they were both with me using a waist high bar on the top of our local qrt pipe for stability.
Hello and that's awesome you've got back into skateboarding again after 20 years. It's hard relearning after a long time but it's what keeps us going and keeping fit. Hope you land your kick flip soon I'd love to see your progress. I can't do one but will always keep trying every now and again. Cheers Carl 👍
Awesome man!!! Take it for what its worth but I've seen so many people fall just like that on stand still pop shuv-its..You would have nailed it if you were rolling!!
