    Default my 2011 Old Man Skate fest I put together

    I put together a little old man skate fest this weekend. EA skate represented itself with Midnight from DP. Was cool skating with someone from the community.

    this was towards the end, its probably about 1/3 of all that showed up. Midnight sporting his DP shirt.


    I was a little hungover and forgot my cam, but there might be some more footy of me than usual because of it. My buddy has a go-pro cam so I got to film this bowl train with it. If I get any more stuff I will post it.

    its a facebook video, I tried to download it and this is the best I got, if it don't work let me know.

    There was a shit ton of old heads that showed up, I won't name drop but there was the East coast Vans core sales manager, lead singer of a touring punk band, old school skateboard photographer/downhill slalom pro, 2 EA Skate legends haha, and a bunch of cool ass dudes.

    I also got this sick ass shirt


    Another clip, my buddy gets a little carried away with the slomo

    Dude that sounds awesome. And that video made me want to buy a board again and carve up some bowls. I am most definitely one of those old man skaters who is in it for the cruise now and not the tricks... lol

    Here is another event this last summer that gives a better view of the park
    I only wish they built it sooner

    As a fellow "old man" i love when you post stuff like this.i don't think a single dude i grew up skating with has anything to do with skateboarding anymore,so to me it's pretty cool that you got a group together like this.looks like it was a damn good time.

    As long as you don't fruit boot over to me and say hi. Oh and don't bring up that you know me not only because I'm all geeked out over a video game but that I mod the site devoted to a video game. I'm kidding, actually I filled in my 2 closest friends about midnight beforehand and I tried making him feel welcomed with my buds as you see in the pic. He's half everyone else's age haha. I've seen only maybe 2 bladers

    M7419, almost every single one of my friends have all stuck together. Maybe not skate often, but as much as we can.
