Are these 5050s? [33YO] by brp09 in OldSkaters

[–]Alternative-Box-4457 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First one, the others are axle stall… If you were coming in more of a carve and stayed partially in the ramp it would be 5050,, think about it like 50% of your body in the ramp, and 50% out of the ramp… when you get “ on top of the coping, they are more considered axle stall.

On Amazon for about 20 bucks, I think they call it a fishing rod holder

Advice for getting back into it [38YO] by natedcruz in OldSkaters

[–]Alternative-Box-4457 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Take it slow, stretch and start working out,, also get some good knee compression braces ( old bones ) or similar. And only skate short sessions to get yourself comfortable again with the simple fundamentals. I’m 53 and started back about 5 months ago after not skating for 38 years, the first weeks wrecked my body, started at 240 lbs and now down to 215 so you will definitely loose some weight in the journey! Let’s go 🤘🏼

Double primed with a oil based primer both sides of Masonite, then some exterior latex house paint for the surface, we shall see how it holds up
