[@edwardstormrage4707]

[@pa.infante]

[@tunstall429]

34 and just bought my first board in 14 years 👍

[@stasioto]

A skatepark is being built near me and I'm also going to buy a board, 35 years here, keep your thumbs up 😜

[@michalistikas8174]

I am 32, I used to skate for 1 year when i was 12, i have been back to skateboarding for 5 days now and i can do ollie,shove it so far. i can say it has been the nicest decision so much joy to be back on a board. loved your progress well done man

[@calebolsen5801]

Thank you!

[@mrrmpr]

Dude yes!! I’m turning 30 this year and doing my best to get out daily and stay on the board!

[@calebolsen5801]

me too! even just half an hour makes a big difference.

[@paulespino6462]

This is cool to see man. I'm 50 and just started skating again last week. Haven't been on a board since I was 15. This was motivating to watch.

[@calebolsen5801]

"you don't stop skating because you get old, you get old because you stop skating!"

[@mandrew767]

show us howyou doing man! much respect

[@brads6304]

Inspired! Good video too. 42 about to turn 43 just got back on the board since my 20's. So sketch, plus I hurt calf muscle already. Loving every moment!

[@AndySo2000]

Good progression, skating takes at least 5 years to be any good. You started to get more of a style on month 10. Keep going with your skating and just have fun!

[@calebolsen5801]

Thanks man. So far so good!

[@RyanTheSenpai]

Now that I’m getting more and more into skateboarding, it’s honestly one of the most under credited hobbies in the world… takes a ridiculous amount of time and skill to be even looked at as “good”

[@LilTraptune]

This is accurate especially if u skate about everyday

[@treLOUGETA]

This is lit and real motivating. I started skating as a kid but never progressed with it. I’ll be turning 30 this fall, and decided to get back on the board to not only remain active but to learn this hobby professionally.

[@calebolsen5801]

Get it! 💪

[@joshpurdy8052]

I skated for almost 10 years of my life when I was young. I just turned 30 and tried to boardslide a rail the other day and completely ate shit. Falling hurts 10x more in your adult life lol

[@calebolsen5801]

Truth. I just bought a rail and have been working on boardslides. Luckily I haven't fallen too hard yet. Shins are taking a beating though.

[@maimedmursi6535]

I love the fact that you can see how comfy he gets with the board each month

[@padsrambler]

I'm 40. Used to skate. I'm going to buy a set up next weekend due to this video. Thanks man.

[@calebolsen5801]

That's what I love to hear!

[@NickInRealLife]

Ayeee nice to see another KC local on here! Perfect video to watch for inspiration as I get back into skateboarding again at 29 lol. Keep skating bro!

[@3dmadness296]

i thought i was alone! keep up the good work guys! we can do that!

[@RyesFamily]

Love this shit glad to see I’m not the only “old head” thinking about getting back on a board

[@EthanAcapella]

Dude really nice progress! I’m 31 and thinking to go back at it after many years, you motivated me!

[@calebolsen5801]

You got it! 💪

[@nate5051]

these videos are what motivate me to keep skating

[@calebolsen5801]

Same.

[@spadeskxpx8795]

And you are doing this alone most of the time. Cool, man! Keep it up. I'm a bmxer but I appreciate your dedication.

[@calebolsen5801]

Thank you! Love watching BMX.

[@pnksmigge5324]

epic journey my man, have started to skate now at 31 and I try to make an hour after work every day to stay consistent. so far I can ollie as high as I can jump and I can somewhat ollie while rolling most of the time. shuvs are so damn scary to jump forward and onto a spinning board... I land them sometimes. Just figured out how to get the spin on the kickflip, but I keep my legs straight after their motions so they are first to the ground all the time... 180 turns on ramps at the skate park and ollies are the most fun so far :) thanks for posting, definitely got me motivated!

[@calebolsen5801]

sounds like you're making good progress! something that helped me with shuvs is to imagine my back foot is passing the board to my front foot. focus on the front foot catch and landing them will be a breeze.

[@SkateVibes]

Niceee🔥 this is awesome dude keep it up🤟🏽 you’re killing it👏🏽

[@cassidylocke7648]

this is so good i’ve been wanting to try to skate and i thought i was too old, you’ve inspired me

[@olegfare4625]

thank you for giving me hope

[@nonphixion777]

This gives me hope. I skated tons in my teens and yesterday was the first time I practiced flat ground in 14 years and I fell in love with s'bing again. I used to get so angry failing tricks but now I understand it takes time, patience and consistency. To see how far you've come has boosted my confidence and one day get back to a decent level again, If not better one day. Keep up dude and thanks for the inspiration and happy skating.

[@calebolsen5801]

Happy skating bro, it's worth it. Keep a record of how far you go because it's easy to forget how much you improve

[@skateboardingoverthehill3577]

Great job dude! Nice to see another older skater here! Dig the music! Keep up the good work!

[@calebolsen5801]

thank you man! very much appreciated!

[@Unoriginal3]

Props to anyone coming back or even more daring learning at an older age 🤙🤙🤙

[@julianbueno8090]

Congratulations! Good.

[@joeretrogaming146]

This was so awesome to watch! You learnt a lot in one years time and this video reminded me of why I love skateboarding so much. Keep pushing!

[@calebolsen5801]

Thanks for the motivational words, brother!

[@jean4j_]

Very impressed! Your progression is crazy fast. I'm 31 myself and I just got a board. I haven't done tricks for 15 years haha I did some cruising with a cruiser board though

[@calebolsen5801]

Excited for you to get back into it!!

[@jean4j_]

@@calebolsen5801 I hope I won't hurt myself too much though. I have other activities and sports I can't skip. I guess I'll go easy :)

[@mauryc7608]

nice music dude, also congrats on your progress. I started riding cruiser longboard this year being 38 and I love it!

[@calebolsen5801]

🙏🙏 thank you! cruisers are fun to skate around town in!

[@cesarianbag]

Man I love these vids. I used to skate and now my 8 year old son wants to learn. This inspires the hell outta me. I was messing around on his new board and I can still ride…did a couple shuvits but I didn’t try anything else. I ordered a new full set up and it should be here soon. I can’t wait to get back out there.

[@calebolsen5801]

Glad you're getting back out there! You'll be kickflipping soon.

[@PeterParker-xk6oc]

Looking good... keep it up

[@chelseasoulshine6662]

Ahh this is great! I'm still working on rolling ollie's and going down the ramps at the skateparks lol. My brain can't compute the shove its yet!

[@calebolsen5801]

those were confusing for me at first too. you'll get them!

[@sk8fm448]

Great job.

[@eddiebayron2501]

I'm skating for 3 years my progression is slow and im not rushing. I really enjoy cruising late in night and going to skate park is fun , it's pretty much like you go out and party . Im 32 years old . One love

Good job man!

[@isthisagoodyoutubehandle]

I was never able to get into skateboarding like I wanted to when I was younger because of my weight and where I lived but now I'm 27, skinny, and live next to plenty of flat concrete. Videos like this are how I'm convincing myself that I'm not "too old" to get back into it lol. My knees have like 10 more years in them and I'm gonna take advantage of it lol

[@calebolsen5801]

Maybe more than 10! 27 definitely ain't too old.

[@skatemodostreet8545]

Epic progression!!!

[@CannibalOX99]

Imma be 30 in 2 months. I'm picking up skating again. Thanks man

That's good to hear! About 10 hours a week on average.

wicked progression man. just started again myself at 33 so thanks for the inspiration. small q, what are the black shoes you are wearing near the end?

Those are éS Accel OGs in black! Great beginner shoes because there are 3 layers of suade where you ollie. esskateboarding.com/collections/shop/products/accel-og-black

you already did rolling ollies and shove its in your first 3 months?😧wow! Ok, now I feel bad for my slow progression

i was already pretty comfortable on the board when i started learning tricks - i have longboarded and snowboarded for a long time.

[@federicolambardi4534]

Cool

[@McChuggah]

This is wildly impressive dude! How much did u skate on average per week?

[@calebolsen5801]

On average, probably 4-5. The pandemic was helpful in that way.

[@McChuggah]

@@calebolsen5801 haha true! Well, you helped to convince me, I'm getting a board asap!

[@MrStonedwizard]

Awesome ! you seem very dedicated. How much time per day/week have you been dedicating to the practice since you started ? You look very at ease even the first month 😮👏 I am 41, bought my board 2 weeks ago. Hoping to achieve such good results.

[@calebolsen5801]

I skated about 2 hours a day 3-5 days a week, or whenever my legs weren't sore! Good luck man don't give up!!

[@tommym875]

Try some slappy nose slides/stalls. Super easy and fun. Low commitment!!!

i tried slappy noseslides on a painted curb one day but didn't slide far enough to get any good footy. but i moved and there's a buttery parking block at the skatepark so i'll give it another try!

[@canadiancarpenter4672]

hey i am just bought a board and have only ollie while rolling learned 75 percent. how often do you spend time skating and practicing tricks a week?

[@calebolsen5801]

Pretty much any time my legs weren't too sore. Even if you just go out for half an hour or 20 minutes, better than nothing!

[@CyborgNinjaGaming]

How many hours a week you were riding?

[@marcsanchez324]

How many hours a week did you put in. I’m currently 30 putting in about 5 hours a week. Profession is coming along. You should do another video like this!

[@calebolsen5801]

Hell yeah, way to go! Record your progress, too! It's easy to forget how much better you get w/o the footage to remind you. I have another couple videos in the works and planning on posting soon. I put in about 2 hours per session, 3-5 days a week. Pretty much whenever I wasn't sore.

You take to the board veey well. Most people are not pulling off moving lickflips and 50 50s for at least 2 years. Start trying shit bigger and faster and the rest will stsrt to fill in.

I agree - I'm hoping to hit a 5-stair soon!
