Hey old farts. I felt like sharing this pic of the best session I had in years: reunion with some heads from my old crew!
We're all over the 40 mark....and some guys I hadn't seen in about 10 years. Super fun. It felt like we were 15 again. I'm the dude far left.

Shot in Paris, Porte de la Muette skatepark. 6 days before the attacks....None of us were directly affected luckily, but this shit hit hard.




PS:
Floop, I share your love of fs pivots!

-> coneklr : thanks man! And wedding session sounds super good. Just watch out not to roll your ankle before the honeymoon trip ha!! Bride would be bummed.....  ;D

I had a week in Copenhagen skating with friends before my wedding in Sweden. We had a blast. One guy came from Australia, another from New York. We skated everyday and the only injury I got was a minor break on my thumb so I was pretty stoked even though my wife wouldn't have been shocked had I turned up on crutches. Another great part of the trip was when we found a discount shoe store selling NOS Osiris D3's so we bought some and tried to skate in them, it wasn't easy but it was hilarious and every spot you turned up at the locals would be stoked to see someone sporting D3's.

OBF haha, can not bum the bride on that day so I'll try to not go all out  ;D

Soda, yes!  This is what I'm talking about.  I bet it was one of the best times, I can't wait!

Haven't been posting cuZ haven't been skating. Literally two sessions since my 2nd son was born in mid April :-((( both were when I had to take my car to tire shop so I sessions the curb and long manny pad in the strip mall parking lot for about 2 hrs each time. That's as good as it gets for me these days unfortunayely. Glad to see all you dudes doing well and continuing to shred. Rad flick OBF!

Your clips are always great 144p ,I'm a big fan of the half cab feebles variations you do on parking blocks.
The rock wallie manual front shuv was outstanding.

Homie from Japan turned 41 and busted 40 blunts to fakie in a row  on mini ramp and kickflipped out on the 41st one.
Sick as fuck!

Fuck yeah 144p! Really liked the wallie to bank fakie. Fuck that, all of it was sick.

As for me, I'm stoked to be skating again. For 2 weeks now. My ankle ended up taking me out for 6 weeks. It's still a little crunchy. But almost back to full strength. Good to be back on board. I'll be 39 in a few days.

Nice pic Frenchie! Having a skate crew that spans decades is the best. I know I'm thankful for mine.

also that 40 blunts video was crazy. that last frame! not even sure I could do 40 rock fakies before my legs give in.........

anyways best wishes to all you guys for the holiday season!
I'm about to head to the Alps with wife and kids for the first time, super excited about that. Not skating until then cause I'm just too scared of hurting myself before I get that snowboarding week in......

At 33 I'm pretty hyped that I skated a handrail last weekend. Just did a boardslide, and only tried it like 5-6 times max before I rolled away, but I'm still sore today, nearly a week later.

Getting older is interesting.
Are you a kook? If you would say this, the answer is “YES”
I quit skating for a time due to piling out

i'd like to fs board and 50-50 this 6 stair i boardslid a long time ago. ideally i'd like to skate a few rails after winter's over, we'll see. i know i can, it's just hard to do it alone and the older i get the less likely whoever i'm hanging out w/ is gonna be spry and intent on doing it w/ me.

Fantastic as usual Dave, inspiration.


Yesterday night I met with Sodajerk and have a little session in an spot right by my house that I didn't know of. Perfect curbs and smooth ground. It just brightened the prospects of my winter and I couldn't thank him enough for that.

Before meeting I wanted to warn him that I am 39 and, as it turned out, he is almost there too. Nice session and great meeting you Sodajerk, thanks - I am coming back today!


Also, I believe that I didn't share this pic. This is me in my favorite ledge in my favorite part of my hometown when I last visited Spain in September.

Always good to share the stoke Cosme. I'll message you when I finish work and if you're still about I'm down for a session, maybe even a pint after. Keep it up old guys.

I didn't step foot on my board more than 3-4 times the whole summer/fall between buying an investment property and regular day to day work/life shit, which is sad, but i have grand plans to hit an indoor mini on my time off between christmas and new years and see if my knees will hold up. 30 years old but my knees and wrists feel like 75 from my early years of throwing my self down shit on a regular basis from 1995-2005

Today's my birthday, 46 years old, I wanted to see if I could do 46 tricks in one session on my favorite bank to parking block so if you wanted to see an old man do some old man things on an old man friendly obstacle, today is your lucky day.
