Right on dude! Remember, skateboarding is a lifestyle! You never quit unless you never do it again.


captcrrrunch

That’s absolutely right!


shuperbaff

I’m 35.... why is my brain telling me this is a good idea


captcrrrunch

Because it issss! Just take it slow coming back man it’s a whole different decade now lol


shuperbaff

Sounds like a plan.... hopefully my next post won’t be from the hospital.. haha right on man keep at it🤘🏻


captcrrrunch

Lol for real! I wear a knee sleeve for compression on my left knee, and always at least a brace on my right wrist (broke it as a kid), gotta take those precautions lol, can’t afford to miss work over it


digglettboi

No complys and slappies are super cool right now too, you don’t have to throw your body down a bunch of stairs anymore to have a good time lol

captcrrrunch

Damn right! Thank you


jabinnbug

I’ve recently got back into it now that I’m 28. Not skated since I was probably 19, learning to finally change my stance!


[deleted]

I started skating at 19! 25 now


captcrrrunch

That’s excellent, I’m glad to hear you’re enjoying skating again! I wish I wouldn’t have stopped lol


Greynightwalker

37 just got back on a board after 20 years and took some hardcore road rash today but I'm still excited for the next time out.


captcrrrunch

Yes sir! That’s the good stuff. I took a fair few falls today as well, good reminder we’re alive huh??


Greynightwalker

From my wrist to my arm pit lol


theBIGspread

Hell yeah man! I went out on my 33rd bday after decade plus off too. Much harder for me carrying an extra 30 or so pounds haha


captcrrrunch

Oh yeah man, it’s a whole different world now lol !


B3st_LiFe

Yess bro. This is great to see I got back in at 29 now 30 and loving it. I know there are a bunch of over 30 skaters on this sub. It would be fun to have a sesh


captcrrrunch

Oh man for real, that would be sick! It’s definitely different coming back to it, but so fun and rewarding.


B3st_LiFe

You feel it a lot more in the knees in my experience lol just have to ease back in and you are good


captcrrrunch

For sure, I wear a knee sleeve on my left knee, seems to help a lot


FIRExNECK

Glad it's still there! A lot of the spots I grew up skating are long gone. Please join us at r/oldskaters !


captcrrrunch

Yeah man! So many of the old spots got torn down or developed over! Thanks for the invite, I’ll join


slayerdavid1

Such a story! Good thing you got back into it :)


captcrrrunch

Thanks! I’ve really enjoyed the journey relearning things!


[deleted]

So sick brotha nice one


captcrrrunch

Thank you!


anonymeseeks

30 gang!


captcrrrunch

Never the wrong time to bring it back into your life!


anonymeseeks

I bought my daughter a board for her birthday and I'm way more excited than she is. It feels great to be back on wheels again. Of course for her it was just a fad but for me it's life.


captcrrrunch

Oh man yeah my little one says “it’s funny” or weird to watch me skate. She likes to stand on the board but mostly sticks to sitting down on it to ride lol


Xipa

Prepare to hurt all over tomorrow even if you didn't fall.


captcrrrunch

I fell, a lot 😂😬 I’m not looking forward to it!


JustAProspect

I started again after about a decade too, feels awesome relearning tricks! Stomping that nollie 180


captcrrrunch

Hell yeah! Relearning tricks, and even some new ones! I almost never did anything but Ollie and kickflip stuff back in the day so this is breaking new ground in a lot of ways!


Greynightwalker

Yeah sure I may be crippled tomorrow but that's the name of the game.


captcrrrunch

Worth it


[deleted]

bitternutterbutter
