Good luck with it, I picked up a board in the summer but fudged my knee which put a stop to things. Keen to get started again but this weather isn't helping. Have you got somewhere local to skate?
I'm going to take a couple of lessons I think. Yesterday I went from one end of the kitchen to the other and at 39 that was my first time on a skateboard. So, there's a long way to go.
Just bought a board. Going to try and learn.
