Not been skating that long so haven't got a skate history. I used to have one made out of the split roller skates in the 70's but that was about as far as it got - I was about 7 then I think. Started surfing 4 years ago and that how I got into skating. Longboarder at the moment but the Middle-age-shred site has inspired me to get a short board - Cheers lads.
