It's scary to me!
that is my main problem now with re-learning. I've advaned past the days when i was 12-20 and I'm now learning new things. Those new tihngs, I don't know what it feels like to land these tricks and I bail or psyche myself out of landing it, I was afraid of success.

Muscle memory seems to be removing the old and replacing them with new memories!

i'll be out on my middle aged skateboarder tip too.

I got better as I got older. Was never sponsored...got flow from some shops rode in some random videos with friends here and there...designed some boards ran a short lived company...I just skate for myself now.
:yeshrug:

Ive been riding a Palace board...that shyt is nice.
With Independent Trucks
And OJ wheels and China Red Bearings.
I came up skating in the 90s.
Technically the 80s (1989) if you wanna be specific.
But that shyt makes me feel hella old.
:dead:
First real board I bought with my own money was a Hook - Ups board/Birdhouse. in 1998.
before that was nash, variflex, voltage, mall boards all throughout the early 90s.
My first board was a banana board in 1989. Then I had them fishtail boards.
First double kick tail board I ever owned was in 1994.
Then Chocolate
then Element
Then Zorlac
Then Zoo York

My bread and butter will always be street skating.
Got kicked out of spots bu police and security.
Used to skate at Love Park (RIP) in the early to mid 2000s in Philly.
Mainly repped Pittsburgh skating.
Moved to NYC and stepped my game up skateboarding everywhere in all five boros.

Ill shred here at Denver skatepark...but since the rona hit I just skate near the park near my apartment.
