Just doing a general survey here. Do any of them still skate regularly or at all? Prison? Drugs?Small group of like 5 for me. One of them still skates a little, but is all into Qanon type shit. I think two of them are tweakers and one's currently in prison. The dude who taught me to ollie is always in and out of prison too, probably addiction related.One of my old friends will take profile pictures with his skateboard, but hasn't actually skated in years. Always tries to talk to me like we were serious business back in the day. He makes a lot of comments like, "do kids even skate street anymore!?!??".
Very interesting thread, brings me back to my youth. Insane how many of you report that at least one got 'distracted' by drugs. Same happened to the best guy from our crew. He cleaned his mess up afaik but doesnt skate anymore. My brother pretty much stopped when I got better than him no joke. Others lost interest as most of us moved away. My oldest friend is a lawyer and skates from time to time when we see each other. I am sure we would skate a lot if we lived in the same city again.
