There's a saying that goes something like this:

"You don't stop skateboarding because you get old.
You get old because you stop skateboarding."

Is it true? I don't know, I'm not old yet. But I don't plan to ever be old, so that probably means I should get out and skate. It's been too long. I could probably still manage to stick a kickflip, but I don't know if the varial flips or hardflips are in my tricklist anymore. :P

Yeah, made my day :)

I plan to still be cruising along on a longboard for as long as I can still stand. Not as hectic as your pic - but I can’t blame old age if I never really went hard anyway.

Good attitude bro :D Keep killin it!
