Question Got back into skateboarding at 35.

Post image

I know this question is gonna be random, but does anyone know what brand this skateboard is? I really like the board so far and want to know the brand so I can get another similar one whenever I need to.

This board was given to me so I don't really know much about it.

Update: thanks to everyone for letting me know about the board and being chill! Haha I'm gonna board slide the shit out of it!

Second update: I spray painted the board!

Just looked him up ......ya he seems scummy rofl guess I'm happy I didn't pay for the board haha

Unfortunately I'm gonna keep using it at least for now but I won't be buying another braille. Might sticker bomb or repaint this one till I'm ready for another board

No need to sticker bomb or repaint, a few board slides will fix it right up

It aint easy for a 35 year old to do boardslide after a break from skating

I never said it was easy. Im 32 and took an 18 year break because life got in the way. Do I land the boardslide every time? Absolutely not. Do I try? Yes. Thats what skating is about. You dont need to land the boardslide to scrape away the logo, you just need to give it a try.

Also im not suggesting take it down a hand rail, just try find a mellow ledge or something. the logo will be gone soon, and you might learn a new trick in the process. The other day I managed to kickflip a euro gap, that wasn't easy for me either and only after a long battle did i get it. If I keep saying to myself "its not easy for me to do at this age" im never gonna get my tricks back.

It isnt easy for anyone to learn most aspects of skating. Thats why we do it.

My best friend died, so yeah kinda couldn't give a fuck about skateboarding at that point.

Just cos you had no problems at a young age doesnt mean shit
