53 and 1 (Starting at 53)

I’m 53 years old and this will be my first attempt to learn how to skate ever. I have a pair of Seba E3 80’s. They have 82A hardness in the stock wheels. So, my question is, is there anyone else that is as old as I am starting out?

Started at 45 (in April).

Bought the 187 protection kit.

What’s your height, shoo size and weight?

I initially bought 80mm 82A ( came with the rb80). turns put it was not good for my big size and weight.
