Let me ask you this: At what age did you start thinking "Man, I'm getting old"?

It seems like people I've skated with start saying this in their late 20s. I'm 46 and feel pretty creaky, but then I see guys in their 50s getting busy so now I'm confused. What is old?!? Do we all just eventually get to a point where we just can't skate anymore or will it be one long Girl nursing home skit?

Dude WTF you are destroying it.  Super impressive-and jealous of your spots.

that was honestly sick as fuck.  that ender was next level shit

I started arround 1988.
I don't care about next generations, I just wanna skate.
To feel better maybe you have do some compensatory sport, good warm up, stretch a lot, eat less and healthy: no sugar, no alcohol, no smoke... I know, is not easy, but is possible.

This.

I’m 44 in a few days and I feel great. There are so many IG accounts by physical therapists/trainers with great mobility, speed, and stretching. Also, I’ve seen the end of so many good skaters here because they hit the bars all the time and by late 20s it will catch up and they just think it’s being old is why they feel like shit skating.

Stretching is great but if you don’t have good mobility and do some light/med weight training it will be harder to keep skating at the level you want.

Also, I’ve got a 2 yr old so I stay in shape for her because I’m always picking her up, etc and don’t need to have a hurt back to keep me from skating.

More footage than Gino has dropped in a decade. Really good. Ender was amazing.

Wow. Impressive. Keep going. If this is you now, when was your peak performance?

That level of skating at 45 is absolutely fucking amazing.

Peak performace was at 15 year old, at 21 and 25. Maybe 15 - 25 is the best... 35 the worst and now, with 45 I'm very close to 25, maybe the main differences is stairs, gaps was 9 stairs when was 25, 4 stairs when was 35 and now 6 - 7 stairs. On technical tricks now is better than ever BUT, I need at least 30 minutes warm up.

That was incredible. All those mid 30s guys already complaining about getting old need to see this.

Dude that was bonkers. I'm 48 now and actually feel as good on the board as ever. The main difference is that I just can't take slams anymore, which definitely limits how risky I get. I spend a lot of time skating curbs, flatground, mellow banks - not because I'm not capable of more, but just because if I slam I'm out for like a month and that's too long to not be able to skate at all.

But you're out there skating like you have no fear of injury. That vid got me hyped. Much respect.

That part was really good, not just really good for 45 years old, like proper good for skater of any age.
Much respect for going that hard. Inspirational!

Inspirational for me, thank you for sharing this.  While watching I suddenly realized that a person can die young at any age.

Holy shit

this was genuinely sick as fuck.   the song had me tripping but at the end i was vibing!!  incredible.

has there ever been a more legit part by someone his age?  a lot of that stuff was top notch for any part
