My First Time at the Skate Park ( Learning to Roller Skate again )

Thank you for being part or my Journey whilst i try to work out the basics of ramp skating (:
I'm in my 50s ! I Skated street in my teens for a few years but lost my skates moving house and didnt skate again until now (:
Since taking up Skating again in my 50s, I have managed about 8 hours on wheels !spaced out over a number of months ( due to RL work loads & of course Covid restrictions)
Skate Parks are very new to me as you probably saw in my Video & to be honest at first *it scared the hell out of me * lol
This short video was my first time at a Park.. i did take a hard fall but the battery in my camera ran out so i missed the footage * Sorry lol * I limped for 4 weeks and questioned my sanity (: so i decided to share this video of my experience ..
I fully intend to go again now that im back to skating fit, and hope to improve with the coming months ! I hope you choose to follow me as my journey continues, & to see how i progress (;
YES ! SINCE THE MAKING OF THIS VIDEO I HAVE BROUGHT A HELMET AND OTHER PROTECTIVE PADS (alas i couldn't find a sumo suit) lol
as some of you may have all ready seen in my previous videos
There will be more tips and tricks / tutorials coming soon on Skate or Scoot Day * Coffee Time* (;
Thx for visiting , see you all next time ..

Do yourself a favor, wear a helmet. At our age it pays off.😁
