re: How old is too old to stop skateboarding?

That Gonzo should still have the plastic rails and kick tails.

Still a damn good pool board.

Drop in and get wet.

52 and still at it, though mostly longboard cruising these days. No parks or ramps in about 10 years, but carved up a pool a little bit last summer. My dexterity is not what it once was, but I still have fun.

Only Tony Alva matters, and Stacy Peralta.

Ride to live.

I'm in my late 30s and can't take it like I used to. Usually everything just hurts now. Also, now if I break a bone it affects my job. I just go pretty easy these days.

Amusing prank (in Spanish) of a pro skateboarder pretending to be an old man with a brace.

The look on the skateboard kids cracks me up.

Old Man Skateboard Prank

I still have my circa 1986 G&S Foiltail (black board with hot pink Q-bert), white Trackers, and hot pink G&S 95's.
