    I am a skateboarder who has been skating for over 20 years. I am a parent, a Nurse and a husband now and I still love skateboarding. I made this channel to inspired dads to skate again and I can still enjoy talking about parts of skateboarding even when i cant skate due to new priorities in my life. I Still love to skate. I feel Nyjah and the Boss Andrew Reynolds are my favorite skaters of all time but I love so many others! Mark Suciu, Shane Oneil, Antwain Dixon, TK, and the amazing Anthony Perkins LOL. You will see some reactions, discussions, skating from yours truly. Come here to get inspired and have a good time

    Skated for 10 years before I got into drinking/partying instead; gained 90lbs between 20 and 22, and I still have the weight. Just turned 30, 3rd Little One on the way, and I'm going to get back into it. I miss the shit out of skateboarding, and I need to lose weight.
    "It's okay, trust me. Just. Skate." Hell yeah man. I'm gonna be thinking of you when I go to my local park!!

      Your story is very similar to mine besides quitting. I. 35 y/o, 6'2" height and about 250lbs. It's hard with the weight gain but very worth it. Hope you get out there and shred brother

    Love the channel. I just turned 40. Skated for about 15 years. My 8 year old son has really fell in love with skating and it has pushed me to get back out there with him. Videos like this certainly help!

    Nice skills Dad, I'm a 50+ skater South of Indianapolis returning to skating after 11 yrs. Fat, unfit but stoked. Looking for old man skate buddies so if you're in the area get in touch. Skating alone sucks!!

      Yea man I know the feeling of skating alone. After awhile I started to get used to it. But if I want to get better than skating with people is the way to go. I appreciate the invite. Most definitely I would love to. Add my on ig cause it's easier to communicate that way

    Hey man - I'm trying to get back into skateboarding at 36, can I ask if it's not rude, how old you are? Also, how long did it take you to get this good?

    • @tonyperksexperience1988
      @tonyperksexperience1988  Před 3 měsíci +2

      I'm 35 and no it's not rude lol. I'm a open book so ask away. Also I've been skating for most of my life so I'm very comfortable on my board. Started when I was about 9 years old and started taking it seriously when I was about 17. So over 20 years skating
