Grats on the upcoming day SG! I turned 40 this past Feb 9th and have been skating since Christmas of my 5th birthday.
CAL 240 Flex Board, Represent! Even with Psoriatic Arthritis I still get out a couple times a week on my board and skate.
Here is to many more years for us all being able to skate and fakeskate as we please.
Mine was Blue and had a Black top.

I never realized there were that many "old heads" playing the game/on fluckit, seriously stoked on that. And to think that you've been skating for 30+ years is beyond sick. I've "only" been skating for 12 years now, nothing impressive to show for it either, but I felt as if that was a long time already haha I definitely will keep on pushing for many years to come, for as long as I can stand on both legs, and I hope you will all too! Have a good one SG!
We "Elder Statesmen" have to stick together. Can't let these young punks try and run rough shod without respecting history! And I am definitely an old fuck.
I rode other peoples boards until my friend got a new complete for his birthday. So, he sold me his Roskopp 1 for $20 which became my first "Pro" model board.
It was kitted out like the Max Headroom deck with lapers, copers, nose, tail, and ribs as well. >_<! It had Gullwing trucks and OJ wheels. Broke the Gullwing
trucks inside a month so I bought Trackers and broke them inside two months. Bought Indy's and have never looked back. When I finally took all the crap off
of it except the rails the world opened up in my skating. Too bad I snapped the deck doing a Boneless over a little red wagon. Went to the local skate/surf shop
back then and bought my first Powell-Peralta deck... Also, love the D.R.I. sticker on the deck above. Skateboarding also introduced me to my love of Punk music.
