@@theaverageoldguy I'm 51 and I'm having back surgery in 3 weeks. If all goes well, hopefully I can grab a board next summer and start rolling around! I haven't been on a skateboard since I was 16!
@@jeremyvonk6853 Oh man, good luck on the back surgery. I have had several friends have back surgery with good results but its always dicey. I hope you can get back on the board. Its not like it was as 16 for sure, but its still as much fun as it ever was.
Oh man, I was so happy to finally get up on the top! That was so long coming and my local park doesn't have anything as easy to do as this quarter, so it's still going to be a struggle, but at least now I know how!
Watched to the end. To help the algorithm. Anything for a Pal. BTW, Starbucks finally got their remod completed. We’ll link up there for some Joe when you’re back in town. DD’s colors are too bright…
as well as staying sideways I think you need to be lighter on the board as you cross the coping. jump just a little - 1 or 2 inches - as you get near the top.
Being "light" on anything at my age is a pipe dream, a jump of a couple of inches is Olympic level for me!! I am trying to be lighter though with varying degrees of success.
Old guys skating is my new favorite obsession! Being an old guy myself, this is motivating me to try again.
It definitely gets harder as you get older, but the joy of nailing something new never goes away!

Fantastic job man! That video was one of my favorites. I was stuck to the screen with every rep. Felt like I was right there with you.
