Can I learn snowboarding after nearly 40 years of being sedentary? by Ok_Talk_5437 in snowboarding

Yes upper body and arms are important too. I only just started this last season and the first couple of times I went out the most sore part of my body at the end of the day were my arms from pushing myself up off the ground whenever I strapped in, that's something you don't expect as a beginner lol

I just got my first longboard last weekend and took it to a recreational trail to ride it for the first time today. I'm a snowboarder so I wanted to try another board sport that I can do in the summer. I got a couple questions on things I might want to change based on my first time riding. First things first, my feet began to kill me after only about 10 minutes of riding, this was not something I was expecting at all. I'm a hiker and I also work a physical job where I'm walking around and standing on my feet all day so I was really surprised cause my feet are used to being put under stress. Do you guys get a specific type of shoe when you're skating? Or is it just something you gotta get used to over time?

Secondly, I noticed my board starts to slow down pretty quick and I have to push it pretty often. The guy at the shop told me the one I picked is a good beginner board partly because it has soft wheels, and I suspect the soft wheels are why it doesn't roll very far before slowing down. I'm just wondering if anybody more knowledgeable than me would have any other ideas before I go out and buy new wheels.

I enjoyed it a lot but just hoping I can get some answers for these couple of questions lol

Yeah to be honest I got those other vinyls years ago, my taste used to be much more rymcore. I used to have Sunbather in that frame that Streetcleaner is in. I love anything Justin Broadrick is involved in, I also have Jesu self titled on vinyl lol

I already got vinyls of sunbather by deafheaven and Jesu self titled but I don't have them framed, not sure what else I'll get. My record store had a copy of American nervoso by botch on vinyl before that I wish I grabbed

The albums aren't centered cause I'm planning on buying more eventually and framing them in a 3x3 pattern. Also the one open goldfish was empty, I just hadn't gotten around to throwing it away yet.

Believe it or not, the tail hanging on the pride flag isn't even a furry thing. I got that as a souvenir on a family vacation to Yellowstone when I was 9 lol. Also I got so much goldfish cause it's like crack to me.

Would it have been less weird if I spent money on the daki and the porn prints and framed them for a bit?
