🤔Are you too old to skate? Why I skateboard as an older adult & how to keep skateboarding forever!

#genx #skateordie #oldschoolskateboarding It's crazy to think I'm an over 50 year old Gen Xer and I started skateboarding again! If you would have told me that last year I would have just laughed! It's been very difficult for me to get back into it. Anything worth doing won't be easy. If I can do it so can you!
Let me show you how...😤❤️🛹
I'm so GRATEFUL ☺️ for all of you that have been subscribing it's been 1,400+ of you awesome people within these last 6 months! 🤯 I'm really blown away by the support and love and thank you all for taking a chance on me! So much more content on the way and I really want this to be a sharing and supportive community. KEEP SHREDDING!!! ❤️ 🛹🔥🤟
Welcome to my journey It hasn't been easy and life has a way of getting in the way. But I pushed through all the BS and shed 60 pounds and have been progressing at a steady rate. I'm so excited to take you all along on this journey and I hope it inspires you to get back on your board. Please join me, like, subscribe and stay tuned for more skateboarding! It's been a long time off the board and I just wanted to share my experience for anyone looking to get back into skateboarding or even if you're new to it. I've missed skateboarding so much and after weight gain among other life issues skating just took a far back seat. I'm happy to be back and I'm not going anywhere...UNTIL THE WHEELS FALL OFF! 🔥🛹🤘

I haven't been on a board in at least 20 years, then one day the YT algorithm snuck a few skate videos into my feed and I watched it. So many memories came flooding in of 'the old days', which was nice, but I went on my way. Then about a week later it happened again and this time it struck a nerve. So much that I've started browsing for more content and about 2 weeks ago, I order a deck, then truck and hardware, wheels, etc. Now I have a complete and am currently trying to work it into my schedule. Being older has me thinking about things in my life I 'will have' to change, diet and exercise, etc; but I know in the end it'll all be worth it. Glad YT helped to find this video, just to give me so extra motivation and determination that I'm doing something good. Not just for me, but my loved ones too. Keep Shredding.!!!!

Man that’s so RAD to hear! I love it, you owe it to yourself and the good years you have left and more to come by changing for the better! So happy for you brother, this makes me so happy!❤️❤️❤️🛹🤙

[@ChongcoSk88]

Im 45 and just started skating again after 20 + years. It was a little odd feeling skating again. Mostly started in a dark parking lot with no one around. However the more I skated the more I wanted to and the less I cared about what people might think. Idk where it came from , but something sparked my interest in skating again and it definately one of the best things in my life right now.

[@kyddshine]

My dad was so jealous of urethane wheels. Was also giving me his first deck to ride, metal skate wheels. Then he push around on my eighties board like, man this is it. He was an active thirty five. Outside the ramps which he said he was to old for. Then he was always trying to bomb hill in front of our house. When I was about his age then. I was out at skate park all day. Phone died or something and he couldn’t get ahold of me. When I saw him that evening he went off about how I was Californiacated skate bro. I said ya and whose fault is that bro. We laughed and he went off about urethane wheels being so great! He was right. Miss that dude.

So true! Soon to be 46, started skateboarding at 42. I have always been interested in the culture , watching movies and playing all the videogames all my life. But in my small town almost nobody skated growing up. It was forbidden in Norway a long time too😅 But when my son wanted to try, I got the chance to buy myself a board. Instantly hooked! Best thing ever! It has done wonders both physically and mentally. So while he gave up on it after some time, I continued and will continue to skateboard as long as I can walk! Keep pushing!

Great video! I'm 53. My biggest concern is just not getting hurt. Nothing worse than the "I told you so" from the people that tell you're too old. Just got to be careful. But I definitely got the fever back, especially seeing all the og guys getting back into it.

[@scottskateboarding]

You know I feel that but real talk the I told you so’s are way easier to shrug off than the regret of never pushing it. You also gotta ask yourself do these people really care about my happiness or do they just want me to fail because they care more about being “right” 🤷🏽‍♂️ This is from someone who had to trim the fat from my life, so trust me I HAD all the I told you so’s in my life but not anymore!💯🎯KEEP SHREDDING!❤️🛹

Thx guys.. Skating really save me... From life and the daily grind. After i had a breakdown and got asthma and 5 slipdisk in my back and neck after years of hard heavry work. I forgot who i was.. and what i am.. Skateboarding is one for the reasons why i get up in the morning..! Thanks again

[@kiloai]

I am doing the same thing, but I stood about 15 years without skateboarding. Now... I mean about 3 years ago I started again but with more skills. Doing things that I could not do when I was younger. That is life. I am 44 and will stop skateboarding till I die. I can ride 4 to 5 skateboards at the same time, one on top of another with only one foot on them and push myself kicking the palm trees on the streets... It is really amazing. I also do wind skateboarding taking out my t-shirt and using it as a wind sail because we have a "small" storm over here that happens once a year. So, I take advantage to do it. My next plan is to ride 5 skateboards with one foot while using my t-shirt to do wind skateboarding. Maybe next storm I will do it and make a video. My muscular memory still strong and getting stronger. People over here turn me into some sort of celebrity because of my balance while riding the 5 skateboards with one foot. I am really enjoying my life. No regret at all. I have broken the same rib twice in different years. A lot of pain while breathing but next day I was there skateboarding and listening to music at same time.

[@AndySo2000]

Loved the video man! I'm 46 returned to skating 4 years ago. I look at skating the exact same way you described. I did have to have knee surgery a year ago which has brought a new chapter to skating at middle age. I was wearing 187 pads too and still managed to tear my meniscus. It wasn't fun and has since made me very cautious on what I do on a skateboard. I will say that you're more prone to serious injury at 40+, your body stops regenerating cartilage etc after your mid 30s according to my surgeon. It also can depend on how much damage you already have done to your joints. If you just started at 40 you are fine. I did a lot of damage to my knees skating as a kid and more so with snowboarding later. This all depends on the individual so don't take what I say to heart. So go light everyone, skating is rad. But be careful out there we aren't 14 anymore! No matter how hard it is to realize that you aren't going to be able to skate like a teenager again! Some people have it in them, that I can't deny. Just look at all the legends still doing it, granted they also skated like that in their teens so it's not like they are learning much at 50+. I just moved from Seattle to San Diego, Seattle and the PNW have tons of middle aged skaters, it's majority of the scene in that region. Lots of old heads are either back at it or still doing it!

[@scottskateboarding]

Yeah wise words of advice, I will say I’ve been very fortunate in my pre-teens, teens, 20’s and 30’s stepped away in my late 30’s up until 49. After strengthening my knees loosening up my joints I feel super good and flexible. It’s somewhat surprising to me but I’ll take it. The stronger I get the more billet proof I feel, but I know not to get ahead of myself. Recovering from a shoulder injury and it definitely is taking longer than I anticipated but I guess that’s due to age. Yeah staying within limits until you’re ready to graduate to the next is super good advice.❤🛹

[@mikeronni1]

If you start feeling fragile, don't go fast. Lesson learned the hard way.

[@scottskateboarding]

True true 😅❤

[@DoubleSupercool]

Cycling, swimming, and skateboarding: that feeling of flying. "Traditional" sports never really appealed to me, but skateboarding, bmx, and mountain biking have always just hit the spot. Do exercise that you WANT to do and your life will improve and you will feel younger.

[@scottskateboarding]

Man I love crushing my bmx! I couldn’t agree more! Well said my friend, KEEP SHREDDING!❤️🤘

[@kilamajaro1085]

Skated from 13 to 16, came back at age 46 now age 48. At this point I am more bowl and transition now as I used to be all flip tricks and gaps as a kid (I wanted to skate transition then, but there were no parks or accessible ramps back then). I will say nothing more gives me more joy than sessioning with my 7 and 12yr olds or meeting up in the evenings at the local bowl sessioning with other guys my age who rip but will cheer you on when you make the smallest trick.

I really enjoy your videos. I’m 49 and have had multiple knee surgeries and have been skateboarding again for almost a year. I was over 315lbs about 10 years ago but now I’m 175 and in decent shape. I might not be progressing as fast as I should because I do tend to err on the side of caution to protect my legs, but I can Ollie and do a few tricks. I skate a little street and in diy park locally. I’m having a blast and that’s all that really matters. I’m glad I’m not the only old guy doing it

Dude thats a rad story! Crazy how that works any idea why or how?

[@buckwheat2210]

I think I've got more focus on what I'm doing and understanding how making tricks work or how to move the board might be why. When I skated at a younger age I took it serious but compared to now I think because I'm out there every day I haven't driven a vehicle for 3 years I've skated everywhere

[@SongJLikes]

It’s perfect exercise… just gotta take it easy on what tricks you do, cuz a priority has to be not to fall/get injured

I understand if you can’t skate when your older due to physical condition. But I 100% believe if you start skateboarding at an older age like 20’s / onward and you’ve never skated before your style and tricks have a higher chance of being compromised. For example lil wayne, yeah he knows how to skate but his style is ugly af. It’s all stiff and shit.

Developing style in anything you do takes practice and eventual mastery. Depending on how dedicated and consistent you are 5-15 years is normally the time frame, regardless of age. 🎯

@@scottskateboarding I don’t think you’re understanding what I’m saying. Lil Wayne is a perfect example. He got into skating in his later years. Yes he’s continued and yeah he’s gotten better trickwise but he still is very stiff looking. There are numerous videos on here of people skating at an older age /progression and their style all looks the same. All I’m trying to say is if you got into skating at a much younger age is different from when you start skating later. Hopefully that makes sense lol. Lastly this is not a dig at anyone and just something that’s been on my mind since forever. I know skating is hard as fuck and it’s truly a blessing to even to just push around.
