    Default 4 dudes over 100 years of shitty skating

    http://vimeo.com/m/40786704

    This was from my annual "old dude christmas gala"
    Only 3 other guys made, pretty much just the same 3 that come every year. Suppose to be like 20 but fuck them. We will do this the same night every year til we just can't move anymore. I'm rockin the beard toward the end. And I shittely filmed most of it with a go pro cam. No preview screen so it sucks. My buddy edited it, he's a fan of slomo

    I'm not judging, but everybodies knees are fucked up. Push a time or two down the block every now and then.
    You won't regret it I promise you that.

    I'm very lucky to have got to skate with these fools all these years. Same guys like it's yesterday. Good shit

    Love this! Always hang out with the old farts at the park, they know to appreciate stuff. Also they can have a civil conversation.
    Keep it up!

    Yeah Knex, the old guys at the parks are the best, they can appreciate all kinds of skating and they don't ask me if i can do any "real" tricks haha.

    Nobody gives a shit that's the beauty
    Nobody showin anybody up or caring about your setup
    Going to NYC in Jully with some old heads "in the know" hope to get to skate some off limits kind of shit. Kind of rather we were the only guys there tho, I seem to skate less when there is actual talent skating.

    yeah man im almost 38 myself; but it wasnt the knees that killed me; both my shoulders got dislocated multiple times pretty much making them double jointed; that really sucks to have them throw out reaching up too fast to turn your ceiling fan off... gogo GIMPS!

    Yeah the ramp is fun. The coping is beat tho and the tranny is bout a foot to slow. It's about 4' tall. There is actually a 7' spine right behind it. That's why my buddy was all padded up. I didn't even skate it this year. There is pipes and poles and shit right next to the ramp so it's kind of sketchy especially if it hasn't been cleaned in a while. But that lil mini is almost impossible to get hurt on.
