What happened to skate or die, skateboarding is not a crime, and etc? Bills and responsibilities! lol There is a ton of skate parks now all over the world now, and you see parents with their kids skateboarding, which is interesting.
Yeah, I just bought a longboard skateboard from amazon, hopefully no one steals it, when it's delivered. I'm gonna skate the sidewalks at the park. lol
I finally hit the skatepark in Wilmington, great place, a few other skaters there all guys ranging from like 20-40, nice fellows and a few were very good skaters....
I'm banged up a bit but it was worth it, after 30 minutes of testing the waters (it's been about 20 years since I've skated anything near vert), i was able to carve the pools/walls fairly well and do decent kick turns at the tops.....the last run I was going to try and grind a lip wall and the board stopped, I kept going and my side and hip are a bit bruised up.....but it was totally worth it, the adrenaline rush is exactly how I remembered. My issue is weight, if I could drop 10-15 get down to 175 or so it would help immensely.....
