After riding longboards for years I wasn’t awful, but stopped seriously riding a decade ago after being hit by a car and my arm snapping in half. Still went out as much as possible after that, but been 5 years since I did more than the odd day.
Not sure I could even balance on a board any more!

Oof, ouch. That’s rough!
I’ve had a broken arm from skating too: sketchy bowl, borrowed gear, jetlag, beer : /It’s been 3-4 years since I stopped regular noodling on any type of board. In lockdown I’ve tried to get out more. Rolling around streets with no traffic makes me remember why I love it so much. While I’m never going to retire from work because I can’t afford to - there is a possibility of becoming classified as a home worker - and that means my dreams of a backyard green bowl (tyres? rammed earth?) COULD come true : )

had a trundle on my old gs rig yesterday. It’s a bit shocking how much you lose in your heels, toes, knees, legs when you haven’t been skating on loose/tippy trucks for a while.
