For me, it's sticking my hand out of the window of a moving car. Whether I'm driving or not, I love having the windows down and waving my hand in the wind. I've loved it since I was a child and I'll never stop doing it!

47 and I still try to get out to a skatepark at least twice a week.

No idea how long I'm going to be able to do it, but I'm going to make every session count.

You'd be amazed. You'll probably be doing it up to 60, as long as you don't injur yourself.

So, as long as I don't don't injure myself.... in 37 years of skating....

Are there any other options I could consider? Cause that ship sailed a long time ago :)

Honestly though, while its forced me to change my style of skating, I enjoy it as much now as I ever have. Learning new tricks, getting a solid whole body work out, meeting and hanging out with new people, it's all still there.
