That was awesome. I just watched a documentary on Christian Hosoi last night- amazing how all these guys influence each other.

I'm hoping to get my mojo back. I got back into it bigtime between '05 and '10. Tapered off after that. I haven't hung it up for good yet, though.

that's awesome though, you're never too old to get on a board or bike it's always nice to get back into it and show the youngins what's up

In reply to NickF40:

Yeah, the kiddies were usually mystified by the dude in his mid-to-late 30's (me, now 40) tearing up the bowl. The thing l like about being an older skater is that no one knows about us. There are plenty of us out there, but we're completely off the public radar.

I think when this new Bones Brigade docu comes out, I'm gonna want to rage again.
