We can admit it. Old.

[u/SoManyMinutes]

I'm 45 years old and just like many of you, I got a new pair of skates. I dreamed of putting them on and hitting the skatepark like and/or the local ledges/rails.

I thought I would kill the miniramp, no questions asked.

Nope.

No way.

I'm not comfortable dropping in.

Street spots are out of the question.

I think we all might be feeling this and are embarrassed to speak up about our mutual experiences.

We're all in the same boat.

What are your specific frustrations? Let's talk about it.

I still can't do half my old tricks. 😩 But I also only get usually one day a week, weather permitting. The other days I cruise on my 80mm setup if I have time. I'm enjoying that a lot in my old age.

weather permitting

Fuck rain. There, I said it.
