Just a little update, I practiced skateboarding for about 2
hours. First just standing on one the board still for a while, then
barely riding down a super gentle slope, then down my driveway (not
all the way).

I am sure that I I looked ridiculous, but I still would look
ridiculous even if I had passable skateboarding skills. But it is like
any other balance sport, just takes some getting used to and some
patience. I did it on my son's skateboard, but since I liked I bought
my own online.

Shrug.

If not...better order it online or shag your ass over to the second hand
stores.

Or you will look far worse than I did when they cut my heart out for 4.5
hours

I will try to find some kind of a helmet.

And elbow pads, knee pads and wrist protectors.

Once you get the hang of it..you can go naked..but while your
learning......

Think of your body as a machine tool. A very very expensive and very
complicated 6 axis milling machine. And you just got it.
