i just skate when my body and brain start digging for it. It's certainly not daily or even weekly like it was for years, but fuck, it just gets in me and i've got to do it. I definitely stopped for a while due to excessive partying mostly, which furthered injuries that were never able to heal because i'd tombstone or hack it on the pool, and even then i was thinking "shit, man, that rock would be the dopest fucking 50-50 up and down. or fuckin shit, look at that virgin barrier." sometimes stop to skate it, often just put it away in the back of my head for another day.
Now that i'm living healthier i stop and skate when i see something that i can make into the shred. Long ass sessions, because i'm always on the solo run, aren't too common, but i just go out and do what i want to do and feels natural.
I can't lie and say that it didn't bum me out that i wasn't skating and was still dreaming about it, but it's what life brought about.
i just want to have fun riding. that's what's up.
so to answer the question, i don't know. i'm not gonna judge someone who isn't riding anymore because i used to worry bout people thinking i was a kook for just stopping into the park to say yo for a few minutes or whatever, but now i could care less. i know how good the fucking carve feels, that's what matters
