Born in '74, stopped skating ~30 years. I wanted to create a casual skateboarding group for adults who want to learn, but prefer not to skate alone. Website: https://agedskaters.com Videos: https://www.youtube.com/@AgedSkaters

At least you've got another day where you can! Setbacks are typically only temporary. Happy to hear you're starting though!

Once again, we had an amazing day with great weather, a packed skatepark, and a great crew of people. It ended up being warmer than expected, but we brought ample covering for the crew. I also dropped in and rolled into the bowl for the first time since breaking my leg.

I'm almost back!!! My PT won't be happy with me, but I had to see if I could still roll in and carve. I went slowly, but it felt great to be rolling again!

Timeline:
Jun 15 - broke leg (Father's Day)
Jun 24 - surgery
Sep 8 - out of boot
Oct 5 - roll into the bowl

We had another beautiful day, and had a few faces we haven't seen for a bit. This session saw Thomas, Richie, Stevie, Shawn, John, Ian, Dan K, Alex, and Tristan tearing up the bowl. Jenn showed up later in the day, and made some great progress on her comfort on a short board.

Our One Year Anniversary!

This week's video starts with a reflection from the very first day, featuring Sam, Allison, and Dustin. We had donuts, coffee, and some high quality H2O (reverse osmosis, for the nerds). We also had amazing weather, and an even better crew of people!

We had a great turnout, and lots of great progress made. Jim and Allison were continuing to push out of their comfort zone on the quarter pipe, Jenn returned after an injury, Courtney continued working on frontside carves/kickturns, and Mark landed his first ever feeble grind.

The morning started off with heavy rains but dried up just in time as Steven and Christine from Jersey City, and Robert from Rockland County arrived. Allison showed up a little later and carved the bowl for the first time ever, including front-side!

This week we had another new skater, along with the return of Walter, who really stepped up to help Sam and Allison on their rock to fakies. He also played a big part in getting Allison to lock in her roll-ins into the flow bowl!

Lessons: Dropping In
YouTube video by Aged Skaters Lessons: Dropping In

I'm often asked how to drop in, and refer people to these videos. They're not in-depth, but thought it would be worthwhile to have these up in a single video.

If this helps you, please let me know, and perhaps I'll take the time to film a proper lesson from start to finish!

This week was warm and sunny, and we had a great turnout. Laura joined us for the first time, along with Jenn on her long board. Anders (videographer) also came through to capture some footage.

We had another new skater join us (Jenn), and also had Sabrina and Dillon come back for a second week. Sam, Courtney, Allison, Dan, Dustin, Stevie, and Ed also showed up. Unfortunately, I didn't get any footage of Courtney or Allison, and Jenn ended up hurting her elbow.

This week we had a few new skaters join us, with most coming back after being away for a long time, and one brand new beginner! Our group was scattered through most of the park, so quality action shots were a bit more difficult to come by, but it was still a beautiful day.

We were hoping the rain would hold off, unfortunately after only about 30 minutes the rain started to come down. Luckily we caught a tiny bit of footage of Courtney's incredible progress with frontside carves and kick turns!

Even on a very hot and sunny day, we had an incredible turnout. We were blessed to have Eduardo from Brazil joining us, and had the first appearance of skateboarding superhero: The Flying Meatball!

It was yet another beautifully sunny day at Veteran's Skateboard Park. With multiple canopies setup, there was a decent amount of shade. Everyone continues to improve, with many significantly increasing their speed and control while carving.

This week saw blisteringly hot weather, with temperatures reaching 92Β°F (33.3Β°C), and little to no shade at the park. We also had the Long Beach Crew (really Hicksville) come through, along with the triumphant return of Alex who broke his leg this past March at Woodward.

Unfortunately, I ended up breaking my leg on Father's Day, which is why there was no video from last week. This week's video is courtesy of the footage captured by Dustin, Walter, and Sam, who all braved the intense heat at Veteran's this past weekend alongside Allison and Rich

Another beautiful day which started out pretty hot, but then the sun hid behind the clouds, giving us much cooler weather. There was a great amount of progress made, but the most important thing is the company. We have such a great group of people!

I carry a container full of pads and gear for others, typically. If it's just me, I've typically got all my pads, and I include hip pads (Rhip Clips). Also, can't kickflip, YET.

Unfortunately, I only had a few minutes to skate, so I left my camera recording the bowl, but the batteries died pretty quickly. As a result, I didn't get much footage, and had a few people send me some clips. Next week, I plan on being there!
