      I saw this video on Monday and broke out my board Monday night. I had not been on a board in almost 20 years. When you fall at 39 it's definitely not the same as falling at 20. Woke up sore as fuck on Tuesday but, can't wait to get out again.

        Only a few old ones can skate like this.

                I skated from the age of about 14 'till I was around 20.

                Just the idea of it now makes me wince with pain!

                Fantastic times though and much missed.

                  Potentially midlife-sad-but-truly a crisis that I've just bought an SC Jeff Kendal reissue custom, same deck I had in the 80's, it's going to hurt but not as much as sports car and teeth whitening!

                    I was a skater from the late 70's riding a plastic board with Gullwing trucks and Kryptonic wheels 'till the mid 80's riding a Zorlac Craig Johnson board with Independent trucks and Powell Peralta Bones wheels, street skating and riding ramps.

                            Just let me know, could set up a show. The park has a pa and enough space for a huge gig…

                            Or I'll do it in a local club just like the last time.

                                I skated with Jason Jessee yesterday.  That was cool.  Still the best frontside Ollie.

                                  Definitely no tumble dryer!

                                  Taking fit pics is like diving in a bathysphere for me.
                                  For that reason, this pic is more like a homage to a good old friend  ;).

                                  Bandana from @Chris in my pocket
                                  IH T, 634od, Banglu, pin
                                  Brütting shoes
                                  My back pack is not seen: Patagonia Black Hole 25

                                  But the focus is on the board.
                                  Bought in 1992 as a hand built deck from a long time friend I started skating with in 1983.
                                  It has still a tremendous rebound in the flex, so it is still used as a city cruiser, built with Gunmetal axes and Tunnel wheels.

                                  History:
                                  I was hooked by the story of 'Sims' 1980 and my first admired skater was Lester Kasai!
                                  My friend  bought his deck and an intensive friendship over the decades started.
                                  When he opened his own business with Wefunk, I bought the fourth deck he built.
                                  We are both skating till today!

                                    I must have been a skater between about 1995 and 1998.

                                    I had the movie that this vid is from on VHS.

                                    Buggers charged £20 for a skating VHS back then.
                                    In todays money that would be like £30+ or $40 or something crazy.

                                        The Skateboard talk got me to a point where I seriously consider buying a Skateboard again, not for Tricks but for cruising, these Old School Cruiser Decks from e.g. Powell look fun.

                                          Regarding the Skateboarding Theme, I skated from 10/11 till 15 I think so 2002 till 2007 but I wasn´t really aware on when it came to the Story of Brands and the Orgins, the Internet wasn´t that big of a thing and the Magazines where focused on the People instead on the Brands, so no Hype really back then, at least here, every Brand basiclly was in the same Price Range in the local Skate Shops.

                                          I was a skater 1993-1996 in the UK and have never heard of Supreme. We liked Element, Blind, Alien Workshop, ES, Etnies, Emerica, World industries etc. And they were viewed as equal more or less and no brand loyalty, picked whatever we liked the look of lol

                                          I’m an old fart. I used to skate from ‘86-‘89. Back then it was all about the Bones Brigade, Christian Hosoi, Santa Cruz, Vision street wear and the like. I’m still nostalgic for old skate graphics, especially Jim Phillips’ stuff!

                                          …...

                                            Lester Kasai was an old favorite of mine from that era. Same with Hosoi, the Powell & Peralta guys, the Gonz, Tony Magnusson and so much more
