- Aaron Kyro explains how you're never too old to skate! Anyone of any age can pick up a skateboard and start learning some tricks. When you start to get older, you have to take a few more precautions and take better care of yourself to make sure that the learning process is smooth and injury free. You can do it!

I'm 54 years old. I skateboard every day. I'm only old if I stop skateboarding
You only get old if you allow yourself to
I'm 34 about to be 35 next month on the 26th, you inspire me! :)
You don't stop skateboarding because you get old, you get old because you stop skating
props to you stay active
Agree 100%. I'm 47. When I skate I feel 14. Never stop. Like the saying goes: Live to skate, and skate to live.
I'm 59, started when I was 12. That was before helmets and pads. Hit my first concrete park in my 40's. Love my downhill boards, now I ride an electric board every weekend. Yes, I wear pads and helmet.
that’s very cool 😎
Nothing wrong with protecting your body! Shred on!
@@brailleskateboarding For real! I think its crazy when people say wearing pads is for posers. It's really not because you never know what will happen. If a beginner asks me if they should wear pads, I tell them yes
Sweet
I believe it's the same as when you ride a motorbike, there are many little sayings but they all say the same thing; "dress for the slide not the ride"
32 and basically starting fresh. I had a junk board as a teen but never really stuck with it. Excited to learn together with my son.
40 and my daughter wanted to learn to skate, so I got her a board and pulled out my old POS board. I learned to stand and roll down the street, but nothing more since there was no RUclips in the 80s. We're gonna learn together.
I am 60 years and bought my first board yesterday!
Hey, Aaron, there's a whole up welling of people relearning how to skateboard in their older years, and you, yes you, are a reason we are being successful. I'm 56, picked up a board again after 20+ years off during the Rona lockdown, and you taught me to Ollie. Never could before in my life and 56 you taught this old dog a new trick. Thanks Aaron!!!
same. Almost to my year anniversary of me skating again. Finally got some Ollies and Shuvit's going. Thanks Aaron!
@@nicholasmavridoglou9835 Now I want to get a skateboard in addition to my longboard.
@@RandyD1972 pfft, poser.
@@MrJakePaddy ;) Wooot!
@@RandyD1972 nah I'm just jealous because I'm not cool enough to pull off a longboard.
56 learning to ollie with my 14 year old. Yikes.
Having a buddy speeds it up WAY more
U go dude
Cool dad vibes! Just don't kick him out next year when you find his stash.
@@bofurseamantle9547 Jokes aside...or he finds mine? Lol. I find honesty is the best policy.
Lol just go slow im 30 and i feel wobly enough. You got this man.
I’m 55 and recently started to skateboard again with my 11 year old son. It’s fun!
That's awesome! Thanks for giving this 35 year old skater hope for the future!
I'm about to turn 35, I'm a nurse and just got my 1st board after 12years without one. My ollie is terrible but I am loving being back on a board. Life is too short to miss out on the things we really want to be doing. Get out there, give it your best and most importantly have fun.
41 year old nurse here and I've been skating pretty regularly the past few months after a 10 year break. Keep it up!
32 YRS OLD AND YOU DUDES REKINDLED MY LOVE FOR SKATEBOARDING 2 YEARS AGO. THANKS A BUNCH
dude same here
I just turned 30, recently got back into skating again after a 5+ year hiatus. Forgot how much I love skateboarding, your always a skater once you start.
Im 35 just getting back into after an 8 year hiatus. I just missed it too much. Tricks are coming back just kind of slowly.
I'm 46 and I'm about to start skating for the first time ever. I can't wait for my board to arrive 🙂. Love your channel
I’m 55. And learning. Don’t have a Board yet but I emailed a company. Looking for a board for my weight which is 225.
How did you end up doing ?
Did pants tbh lol. Not been on it in over a year. Lot harder than I expected and we'll it's hard at my age haha
This weekend was my first time at 43years old
@meg_5140 so how's it going?
52 years old and been skating for 3 years now, I was 13 before that. I just love Skateboarding.
I'm confused... did you go to bed a teenager and wake up 49?
@@MrJakePaddy That's sure what it feels like.
Skated in my preteen/teen years then dropped it during high school. That was 20 years ago. At 33 last week I dropped in on a quarter pipe for the first time ever! I owe a lot to you guys.
18 years old but still watching cuz my body 47
ha! lol
Dude I feel that 😂 I’m out here doing warmups like I’m about to play a soccer game, but it’s just so I can skate 😂
I feel that I'm only 13 but I have a bad back
@@jazgaming9434 same here buddy lmao
Fr fr 😂
31 Here, been skating my whole life. Three, yes Three left knee surgeries later I still skate. What little I can. Your videos have helped me regain some of my confidence on the board. Thanks Braille
I'm 32 and I just started back last year after a 16 year break. I started back in rocket power and Tony hawk pro skater days.
Same! I keep rolling my ankles though and it puts me out for a week 😫😫
This comment. 👆 32 and it’s been 14 years for me.
32 and considering starting up again after 14 years and 3 screws in an ankle.
32 here also and took took off 15 years so cool seeing so many people my age getting back into skating
Same dude
My uncle is 42 and he has been a skater in his whole life and he looks like he is 27 years old and he have a really flexibel body
Yoooo that is so true!! My uncle too, he's a bmxer and age 48 but still look like 30s. I guess skating or pedaling, makes us look younger.
Your Mom does to. It must run in the family ; )
@easyadrian .Adrian T hahah
I’m 50 and bought a board yesterday. I’m gonna try my best until my knees give out!
@@danielf.6770I am sure you really care. Smh.
44. Started a month ago. Ollie - quite ok now, did a shoveit yestreday :). Feels great. Time to start jumping over stuff.
stretching is essential!
Hey mogely has my GameCube arrived
Hi mogely
Wait your a dad jkjk 😂😂
Game N Fix it has, hoping to use it this week
Nice thanks for letting me know I also put in an adapter to hook it up to hdmi
26, watching Jonny Giger, Vinnie Banh, Braille and others on youtube has interested me into getting back into it. Wish I never stopped.
I'm 29 and just started! For my 4 yr old son! I really appreciate you guys and all your videos!!! Thank you, truly
I'm 49. Still learning new tricks, taking risks, having fun. I stretch a TON. Could probably eat better but I mostly eat well and hydrate. Still love skating as much as ever.
Me too, 49 and still shredding. I just ordered an Ed Templeton reissue with indys and dogtown wheels. Can't wait til it gets here!
Even though I'm not nearly getting old (15 years old) this still helped me immensely to keep myself healthy and stretched for the sessions. Thank you
Stretching is great for all ages, whether active or not. Make the most of your youth - once you are out of school, time flies man!

....what are you trying to say RUclips? 😕
I'm 21 years old. I watched a lot of Tony Hawk and Rodney Mullen clips while growing up. and it is only now I am finally learning how to skate. If not for watch this channel, IDK if i would have put out the effort of learning something. Anyways I just want to say thanks for you guys for doing what you do. Stay dope!
38 here. Starting again after YEARS. I plan on just riding for a while. Just cruise around and go with the flow.
Same here. Im 39. Gonna cruise for a while so i can get my old balance muscles back. Not sure if i go back to street/park skating or maybe try something new like free ride or downhill :)
Started skating when I was 8 years old, stopped when I was 15. I’m now 45, started to skate again and am going the local skate park with mates I used to skate with back in the 80’s. Dropped in on a 5ft mini ramp, slammed on the first attempt, then nailed it in the second attempt. Great advice Arron, many thanks for your support to all skaters of any ability and age.
I just turned 30 and feel the best I've ever felt. I dunno when feeling "old" is going to kick in but it isn't now. Also this is kinda funny considering the vast majority of you're subscriber base is most like under 20 lol.
Those are rookie numbers
It's when you hit 35 that you grasp what's about to happen.
You got about 5 years before life kicks in lol
Frankieare Happy birthday
@@Alfie-ft3bx Thanks bud! But it was a couple months ago. I'm a black belt in approximations.
I turned 54 last week and one of my goals for 2020 was to learn SMS vol 1. My ollies are finally starting to improve, I can occasionally land pop shuvs and frontside 180’s. Gotta long way to go in the second half of the year!
I'm 46 and I start again after 25 years
Can u do tricks?
@@danielf.6770 bad ollie
anybody else watches is videos just for his amazing personality?
just me? cant be...
this man is awesome!
CipCop me
Either this or an episode of Mr Bean, same thing.
Wow, there's 3 of you?
Just turned 60 this year and haven't skated since I was in my teens (though did a lot of rollerblading and regular skating) and wanted to see if I could get back into it. This video really inspired me to try again with a much better board than I had as a kid! Got the pads, got the helmet, now just need to find a place where I can practice...! Thanks for the inspiration!
you need to lock that skateboard in a cupboard until your midlife crisis passes. taking up skateboarding at 60 is like taking up coloring books as an adult.
@@jimbeam-ru1myehhh honestly it really depends. I disagree. Just riding or cruising is pretty easy and the best imo. like long boarding
@@jimbeam-ru1myyou have a problem whit color books now cuz I do it
I'm 46 and picked up the board after 30 years plus I'm teaching my 11 year old son as well
aaron will never get old lol
he’s a teen in his mind and physical fitness 😂
Well said sir! I'm 33 picked the board back up after 17 years an feel like I'm progressing faster than I was when I was younger! Let's keep pushing!
I’m 37. I picked up a skateboard because I got tired of paying for parking at my new job. I’m super excited had my first skate today. Thank you for this video.
That is awesome!
Thank you for this. I skated when I was 15 - 20 and never really got support if I wasn't doing Rodney Mullen style tricks. It was always an aggressive, toxic environment that fatigued me. I finally quit after I broke my elbow taking a hill too fast. This really makes me want to dust off my old boards and start from the beginning again.
I just turned 35 and I just built a mini ramp in my backyard. Shred till you’re dead.
61 and still carving bowls. Grew up in the early years skating pools in the late 70's. Spent alot of time at the Pipe Line Skate Park in Upland CA. But pools were my addiction. Now it's early morning sessions at the skatepark. Skate or Die !
I'm 26 and over weight I ordered my first board and it gets here Friday. Iger's watched braille for a while now and I decided to finally make the leap and get a board. I mostly just want to ride around my apartment complex at first just to get outside and stuff. I dont really plan on doing a ton of tricks or anything like that I mean eventually I will but my plan is to just ride around a ton first. But love the channel you guys got me into it and we will see how it goes :)
Goodluck i hope it goes well and i recommend riding outside 100%
Yeah thats my plan too, buy a board and ride in the apts...less traffic! I just want to cruise it..im not going to do crazy tricks and hurt myself! I do tricks on my bmx bike but i feel im missing out on skate boarding too so im going to get a cool board!
How is it going?!
In two days i will get my new board. After 25 years break :D i stopped skating with 13 and start now again with 38. At the weekend i tried some ollies with the board of my son. And... Yes its better to warm up. My back hurts now since that. Great video thanks.
This is exactly why I subscribe to yall. Growing the community, spreading love and spitting facts!
I'm 44. Recently started skating again after some 25 years. I'm hooked.
wait he’s 36-
Yup but sounds/acts like he's
U did not not know that
Robert Karoyan he’s like childish/immature yet full of wisdom and maturity at the same time. And I mean that in the most respectful way. Aaron is very successful and is like the dad of Braille that keeps everything and everyone in line
@@NickyNicest exactly bro
When ur mind thinks he’s twenty but ur phone says he’s 36
7:12 "you need to eat alot of healthy foods as well"

In my experience, vegan is the best.

Just turned 31 and have always wanted to learn how to skate. This video is the motivation to go through with it and learn something that has always interested me.
I'm in my early 40's; got back into skating 2-3 years ago. A few months ago I landed my first kickflip ever! I do pretty much all of the things Aaron recommends. Solid advice!
Man I’m thirty five and you guys got me on a board again! Appreciate the inspiration to finally start trying!
Where's the ramp!? Houston here! Picking up skating after about 26 years!
I thought i was too old to be skateboarding! Im 36 and i want to buy a $100 board
My great grandmom taught me how to skate!
I am an elder ( much older than all mentioned in the comments ) I am planning to teach myself skateboarding .Your videos are so valuble Aaron and excellent preparation . I am determined to have fun learning .
That is awesome!
I’m 33 and only recently started skateboarding due to boredom because of COVID-19. Four bruised ribs, and lots of binging Braille later, and still loving it!
The thumbnail really creeped me out!! No offense 80 year old Aaron!
I am 41 and 3 weeks ago picked first ever in my life skateboard to learn along with my 5 y.o. daughter. Am I all right or just going crazy? 😜
You got this just take your health seriously. I'm 33 one of the best skaters I skate with is 57.
38 and doing the same thing with my 15 year old son. We wanted to challenge ourselves.
You need to be a little crazy to be all right. :-)
I'm 33, and we started to skate with my 8 year old son this summer. We learn with your help Aaron, thank you!
40. I've skated on and off since 86. Now I skate 2-5 hours a day and feel great.
59 here, just slowly starting again after almost 30 years. Somehow feels familiar and scary at the same time...
Dude you are a legend. Here I was thinking maybe I’m too old to get back into skateboarding at 35. Kudos to you man ✌🏻
I'm going 42 years old this year. I always have been a street skater and unfortunately my body, specially my knees don't manage all the impact. So I switched over to skating on transition and it goes pretty well, I don't do anything specific like stretching or yoga but I make sure to warm up well, skate for short periods, drink a lot.
Started skating at 12 stopped at 20 and got back at it at 40... Now I am 48 and still going at it. Thanks for the inspiration! Love your channel, love skateboarding!
love this topic !
I’m 40... my 12 year old and I have been having a BLAST learning to skate together.
thanks Braille !!
Back to boarding in my mid-40's after stopping in my late teens. Modern long boards are a BLAST! Totally agree with these tips, and knowing when your tired/time to stop is a HUGE thing. I've been riding MTB's for 15+ years now and I know that once I hit "pretty tired" my chances to injure myself thru dumbness or just simply overstress something goes thru the roof. :)
Just want to agree 💯. Great video great tips. I myself just started skating at 40. Started lil over a month ago. Got decent at riding, pushing, turning, kick turns. Went out to local park this last wens. Skated for hour n half just cruising for first time.!! Totally awesome. Got home body not use to skating big park. Then I was on a high I jump back on at home 3 hours later fall cuz of noodle legs fractured my left elbow. Best and worst day of skating. Should have rested and skated next day. I tried to push to hard. Skating is not one of those activities. But I'm in a splint n sling and am itching to get back on. Fyi had pads at park got to comfy to should have put em back on
There's so many people prove that age is only a number and i admire them a lot 🔥🖤❤️💚💛
Im 36 and i thought i was too old to skateboard! I figured most guys my age are married and they ditched the skateboard in their teen yrs! I never grew up so i want to buy a cool board!
46 here and haven't had a board since I was 15. Decided to get back into skateboarding after I bought my son a board a few days ago. Waiting for my new board to turn up so I can teach him. Loving all the videos really helpful.
I am 56 (began at 11, stoped at 17 restart at 34 to 37 then stopped again,restarted at 55)...Since I have had some skate injuries due to fatigue or being impatient to drop the 6` quarter ramp without much preparation at 37 or recently right wrist bad tendon injury for a simple olly attempt on the flat, I totaly agree about what you say. GREAT advice. MANY THANKS
I started skating a year ago at 31 and I definitely feel more confident with my helmet, elbow pads, and wrist guards. Somehow I keep injuring my toes though, broke a small toe and hyperextended a big toe. Maybe I need thicker shoes.
Get some cupsole shoes like we had back in the early 2000's and before. Shoes like eS Accel OG.
I started skating again at 26 after 10 years... 26 is old guys. My back, my neck, my ankles and kneecaps.
Yup, turning 25 in two weeks and I'm struggling to ride.
@@scottperkins5038 yes it's really awkward. Your brain knows what to do, but your body just can't do it.
I'm 27 and can skate 10 miles
lol im on vacation. I took a month break jus cause😂😂
The 3rd Jake From State Farm lol same here..
And i take about an hour nap after😂😂😂
Im 25 and trying to learn to skateboard, Its a weird age where people look at me and expect me to be able to skate but I can barely tictac without killing myself. dropped in off a ramp today for the first time and slammed a few times trying to get it. But seeing adults starting to learn to skateboard all over the place is really inspiring thanks for the awesome videos Aaron! Gonna definitely get myself a helmet and some pads before I try any of the ramps at the park again though that's for sure lol
At 63 I'm still running full court bball with 20 somethings until covid came along and no games. Now I'm back into skateboarding working on my ollie, with a goal to fly over stairs one day. Ironically I recently found out Allen Gelfand's car repair is one block away from me...I'll have to stop by and say hey when I get a moment.
I'm 46 and just started learning how to ride with my daughter. Thanks for speaking to us old farts!
Oh i remember this channel i used to always watch this when i never knew how to master an ollie
your advises about warm up + streching before + after is absolutely CORRECT !
I’m turning 40 in October. Haven’t been on a board in 20 years. I just started skating again and I’m happy for these videos.
I’m 28 just started skating like 2 weeks ago and my kneeeeeeeesssssss😫😫😫. Got some great stretching in the gym to today, rode about a mile on my board for my cardio Nd I feel great but my knees are sore
Same man. After taking a few years off of skating i didnt expect my knees to hurt so much im only 24
I’m 24 and haven’t skated in 3 years. I want to get back into it, but I feel like I’m at that age where it’s not a priority. Plus the risk of injury that could last a lifetime.
You're 24 and you think about lifetime injury's when skateboarding?!! Better don't ski or snowboard or play soccer because that's as dangerous as skateboarding. Dude, I'm 51 and skateboarding every weekend.
My biggest problem is high blood pressure, high cholestorol, some overweight and mild diabetes, and that's the result of not skateboarding enough.
I’m 23 and fractured my wrist. Was told I’ll probably get arthritis in my wrist but that’s something I can worry about later on.
U used to skate?
same i went to the park with a friend and could barely do anything
Broke my hip skating. It healed with 4 screws in it and I went back to skating 3 months later. Idk what my point is. Do what you have to do.
i gotta thank Aaron and Braille for getting me back into skateboarding, i'm 28 and haven't skated since middle school and just today finished setting up my new board and cant wait to get back into it
I just got back to skateboarding this week, the first day at the skate park, thought I'd do the same tricks as before, felt a lot, and even injured my arm. This advice will help me of course.
53 here. Out on my RipStik every day or two.
In the netherlands their is a whole new skatepark
Is it the one Skateboard Bruh made a video about?
@@blueberrybubbletea_ yeah
Sweet
It's insane
@@PHeMoX nice 🤙👍
I'm 31 next month and these videos helped me finally try skating for the first time. I feel a bit silly wearing my pads but I hadn't had the courage to do this before and I'm proud I'm finally giving it a go.
I’m turning 43 next month and I was inspired to assemble one again after seeing my old deck in storage. I haven’t skated for 26 years. I hope I can still pull off a couple of tricks!
I'm 36 and just got back into it after 20 years. Your videos have been so helpful and motivating.
You need to make a video where you spend an entire session warming up and by the time you're finally ready to skate everyone else is ready to go and you're left sad and alone. :(
I'm 17 and my bones snap with literally any quick movement
I started skating in the mid 1980s! A Ray Barbee deck Thunder Trucks and 60mm Powell Bones. I stopped when I was 36 thinking ahh man I'm too old. Ten years later and Pandemic lockdown has got me back into it. Feels a little like starting again and I've now got a cruiser to get back into and a local skatepark! Your videos have been so encouraging! Thank you!
Im 134 years old, i stared skateboreding when i was about 212 yo, i love all your videos ive been watching for about 5 minutes. Love you NORAA
Can someone help me😅 I just got my skateboard since I wanted to find a hobby during quarantine and Idek where to start💀I don’t have any friends so how tf do I practice at a skatepark? 😂
Practice at home. Theres alot you can learn just in your parking lot.
Just ride around first and maybe try some hippie jump or nose pivots. Once you are comfortable on your board start learning ollies.
First practice learning how to skateboard at home then when u feel comfortable skateboarding then skateboard around the block
They have a playlist here called "How to Skate" i guess. Look for it ;)
Me E thanks!
Come to the netherlands
Yeah! And then to Germany 😁
I’m 53 and just started skating again so excited about it
32 here. Haven't skated since I was 15. But I got a skateboard this weekend and rode for the first time in 17(!) years. Haven't had so much fun outside in a long time, and this channel is excellent.
Waiting for the early squad comments LOL
>me 21 mastering ollies
I'm 24 and just learning tricks lol
I'm 32 and can barely stand straight up on it.
Keep it up guys!
Thank you so much for this and all your videos! Just bought my second skateboard. I am skateboarding since three months. And I love it. Last week I became 54. Now I am sitting watching skate vids and havind a bad flu. All I can think is getting better and skate :)
100% agree. 32 years old and got back on the board. Went to the park without protective gear and broke my arm. I'll be back at it again in 3 weeks once I'm all healed up but this time I'll be prepared. Love the videos! They honestly were what got me hyped up to do it again so thank you!
guys guys tony hawk is old lets be honest
Aaron’s showing is age talking about orange soda at McDonald’s lol rip hi-c
Wait... what happened to Hi-C?!?
@@Adam-M- McDonalds doesn't sell orange Hi-C anymore.... :(
It's in Cicis pizza & dollar stores .
They got pink lemonade hi c in tons of places it's even in Sam's club .
Hi everybody! Amazing video! I’m 43 and decide skateboarding again after 25 years, thank you! I think is very important to know your own limit. But you must never give up! In my opinion, you must to do what makes you happy and realized. Skateboarding is life, it is a state of mind. Be safe, take care of yourself but always have fun! Regards from Brazil to you and to all people who has not afraid to get older!
I'm 55 haven't been on a skateboard in 40 yrs. I just bought a new board yesterday. Excited to go for it. Thanks for the video. I'm in san jose
I am sad I can’t afford a skateboard 😭
That sucks
I was saving money for 9 months for my first skateboard
Iove from india🇮🇳 hi my name is divesh I also want to be a skateboard dut my present are not allowed to buy the and what nothing ❣️😊
My dad's 60 and he's still got it respect for older skaters 🤟
