OT can an adult learn skateboarding

I have to admit to having almost never ridden a skateboard, certainly
I am a complete novice. My older kid started to learn it and I am
wondering, can an adult pick that skill up or is it too late.
A related question is what skateboard would be good for an adult sized
beginner. I just want it to be easy to use.

I tried my son's, around 12 years ago (I was 50). I had been a tolerable
surfer in my youth, and I think I could still do it -- but the skateboard
would have killed me if I didn't give up after about an hour of trying.
It's harder than it looks. So is the pavement. g Talk to the oldest guy in
a skateboard shop and see what kind of armor he recommends.
