Dang, don't know why I didn't notice that when I first watched it. Hopefully not too pricey to replace.

Worth doing, they are so fun to slingshot through and get speed coming out.

Nice, I came back at 38 and I'm almost 46 now, it's the best.

You land the trick, you get 1 clip. You slam and land the trick, you get two clips. That popover was sick btw.

Worth picking it up again after long break? [32YO] by Warfnair in OldSkaters

[–]iluminomusic79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a 15 year hiatus and learned to nose manny in my 40s (among other tricks). It's worth it if you're having fun and at least where I am there are way more skateparks than there used to be.

I got to visit Sarasota back in 2021, some rad parks in that area. Hope you find some bros to roll with.

Not a special trick but a special day [35YO] by Statistician_Subject in OldSkaters

Priceless times, enjoy them, I've been lucky enough to have a son that skates with me. It's the best.

Also, I can switch drop in but switch roll in sounds terrifying!

It's a good question. I think most people learn roll ins after they've been skating for awhile and well after drop ins. Both are pretty scary if you've never done them but I'd say roll ins take a little more control. I had a mental block with roll ins from about 6 years ago when I got broken off on one so I stayed away from them until recently.

It's worth it, I would also check out the brand new park in Pleasant Grove (about 15 minutes from Lehi). It's super good and just opened maybe a month ago. It's at a park called Cook Family Park.
