Yes yes, as an almost 39 year old getting back into skating after a 25 year hiatus, it's encouraging, and great to see others on a similar journey. Thanks for sharing
The Selfridges bowl looks sick. Wish I would have skated it when I was in London a few years back. As for the video even without much footage from Selfridges it was still a super fun watch. Loved seeing the mini tour of the city.
"Show him some lines!" - and you did. Inspiring the young lads already, cool. Me going to Berlin to my cousin to skate and hang out on the weekend, maybe a video will be created, too. Excited!
Awesome video mate, that one was next level! I still really want to skate that selfridges bowl! Congrats again on the 1k, you are killing it and I sense it's only going to get better 🛹😎
Thanks man. I make videos like that when that’s the hand that dealt me… and honestly had to ask Andy to look at it before I posted cause I wasn’t sure it was legit. Glad people are enjoying it.
Seems like you were having good fun. I'm jealous of your smooth reverts and dropping in. Need to get both those down soon. As a yank I enjoy the London footage as well. Need to go there one day.
Reverts are the closest thing I have to showing off. And dropping in, damn I built up slowly and super carefully to my first and then it gets addictive. See you soon 🇺🇸🇬🇧
Thanks for sticking with it! That bowl is not easy to skate, but they are super welcoming and if it's quiet they'll help you with whatever you're working on.
@@goldenshoulders909 it's deep in the Selfridges website, but check for timings of when they have lessons - as long as there isn't a lesson happening you can ride
“Charlie, Dads just gonna watch something on the big tv. Here’s your tablet” best decision I’ve made today 💪 that was a good one! The sweet got me the other day and made me change deck. Was all on my griptape! If we do a video one day it has to be re-enacting this one 🔥 I want to skate both places and the bike ride looked fun asf 👊 sick vid dude
@@Sk8Comeback oh nothing on that one… funny, after you said you wanted to see me bail more I’ve hit the deck a bunch of times off camera. On a 180, on a Noseslide and that dumb frontside thing.
Awsome video. As an old geezer (sameish age as u), look into grab tricks. Like the 80s era before ollie was invented, there are lot of cool looking tricks that are actually way easier to do than kicking/flipping with feet and try to land since you are holding the board. Check out skaters like Andy Andersson. Some tricks to check out; caveman (with variety of tricks to it). fingerflip, hippy jump, shuvit etc Your video made me happy. Need to get a skateboard next summer. Thanks for inspiration!
Great to see a fellow over 40 skater out there in London throwing their carcass around. Also like your recent slappy video . I am currently trying to skate all the postcodes in London let me know if you wanna do a skate in a random postcode
@Ungracefulmovement oh sick that's probably why you came up in my feed. Really dig thr editing style and honesty . Especially things like "insert spongebob meme" . Also the slappy battle is real I cannot do the proper ones only ones to the side . Keep ripping and glad algorithm showed me your stuff
Weird I commented but my comment got deleted? YT ninjas because I mentioned another social media site? Great to see you out skating and having a great sesh! You got a sweat on and seemed stoked, let those good times roll! I was also really stoked to see my boys in the bg at SB - Twig, Nelly etc, which makes me think I must've missed you as I swear I was down this day. I'll be in touch on the social medias and hopefully shred sometime soon
I didn’t see a previous comment so must’ve been the YT censor. I honestly love SB and should go more often. If there’s anyone already there, I’ll hide down the back, but give me a shout if you do see me. 👍🏻
@@Ungracefulmovement didn't even know it existed! I'm closer to a little park called city mill pool st, it's not got much at all. Will have to venture to cann hall before summer is over.
I have a exway ripple electric board for travelling around. With the big wheels it pretty much takes most holes and stones etc. it’s annoying when you use your push board and a tiny stone takes you out. I want to visit the London skate park. Not sure I’m good enough for it yet. But got to learn at some point I guess.
Death by Haribo, looks like we both ate shit this week then. Great vid but you’ve had loads of compliments already so I’ll hold back 😆 Nice 180’s btw 👌🏻
Hey, cool channel! If you want to merge/pivot your channel towards the "walking around" format, at the same time as continuing your skating journey: I'd be happy to advise on the more niche (for the UK) types of Longboarding; specifically the intersection between LDP/Freeride & slalom. I am in my mid-30's; and I am roughly 23 years into the above mentioned type of skating. (In the mid-2000's: if you wanted a Loaded deck, you had to import it). I didn't know it when I was 12, but there is a whole world of skating that is accessible for absolutely everyone; but it's also ideal for +35 skaters.
Awesome vibe. I'd be out skating too, but someone got into my car and stole my shit sometime last night. Took both my skateboard and cruiser board among other things.
more toes on ollie ....might find back foot holding board down ....because back foot is heavy flat .......get back foot on up on toes more and flick with the toes oppose to whole foot ....
Great vid and shout out to the Origin Unknown Long Dark remix🤣. See soon man🤞

Let’s go. Muscle memory kicked in yet?
@Ungracefulmovement more than I thought it would. It seems harder and scarier now, and I've had to unlearn some bad habits, but it's a lot of fun!

Love the vid you seem to be smashing it. Big fan of the Valley of the shadows tune never gets old
🙌🏻🙌🏻
absolute banger of a tune when you were cycling. nice skating too g keep it up
Kinda fitted huh. Sk8comeback goaded me into using it… he’s runs a lot of dnb on his vids

Bra, that bowl at the end is MONEY! Skate that thing every chance you get!
London looks hectic on that bike 😅
London is hectic all the time. That bowl is super tight, i struggle, but the gang that work there DAMN! they're good.
Another class video man, that bowl in Selfridges looks absolutely class (and big up yer wee fakie ollies), looking forward to next week.
Thanks for sticking with it! That bowl is not easy to skate, but they are super welcoming and if it's quiet they'll help you with whatever you're working on.
Aye I'll be checking that bowl out soon

hey man, really enjoying your videos and going on the same journey together. young or old skating is the best. keep it up

good to see you still pushing
thanks bro!

Glad to hear it!! Are you London based?
@@Ungracefulmovement Yeah mate, I'm around stratford, also struggle like you with the skatepark anxiety so always good to have a homie to go with!

if you are able to go there in the morning on a weekday it won't matter how good you are. it would be very quiet and you can just skate around

These flipping 180s every time I think I’ve got it… but my shoulders are just not pulling me round

Thank you. Long boarding is not for me (yet), but I appreciate your enthusiasm. Be safe out there!🫡
If you’re ever up north give me a shout 👌👌 you’re never too old to get into the sport
Nice! 👍🏻
Awesome vibe. I'd be out skating too, but someone got into my car and stole my shit sometime last night. Took both my skateboard and cruiser board among other things.
Sorry to hear that man. DM me a pictures and I can post on here at least… to look out on eBay etc
@@Ungracefulmovement I couldn't find the DM function, I put my email in a comment on your latest community post.
@@thx134 oh I was thinking on the other social media 🤣
@Ungracefulmovement oh, haha what are your socials?
@@thx134 on IG same name as here.
Slam on a gummy cherry. That's a sticky one. :)

Oh… forgot to say! shoulders bro! Cliche I know but get them shoulders involved more and that fs 180 is happening 👊 trust me
more toes on ollie ....might find back foot holding board down ....because back foot is heavy flat .......get back foot on up on toes more and flick with the toes oppose to whole foot ....
Yes. These old legs forget and often end up heavy on the heels.
I want a #overfiftiesskatebiard hashtag, 20 years ago. So I am just going to say if you feel it, do it. Don't let London stop you.
lol saw myself in my background
At what point?
Deathcandy 😂
the title was nearly "trippin on gummies" but wasn't sure youtube would appreciate that
I will be very happy to teach you 180 my brother...
Let s go skate together my man😊
Many have tried to
Mate , we’re a group of skaters over 40 and I can see from this you must be local , so if you want some older fellas to skate with give me a shout .
I’m based south, so we might have already met… you skate SB regularly?
