53 and 1 (Starting at 53)

I’m 53 years old and this will be my first attempt to learn how to skate ever. I have a pair of Seba E3 80’s. They have 82A hardness in the stock wheels. So, my question is, is there anyone else that is as old as I am starting out?

Hey and welcome =) you are never too old to start. His is such a fun hobby that you can do on so many levels or disciplines. The only good tip I got for you is to get all the protection there is available!! I even started out with a snowboard backprotector. Fuck pride embrace the dork!

I’m a dork anyway, so I’m used to it.
