Grown Men riding Skateboards in the streets ?

No they are not grown men and they probably still live at home with mum and dad.

Great to see them doing sports that are fun to them, being active, moving outside, instead of just sitting in front of computers all day (like me ), eating too much and becoming obese

^ good point

i saw a little girl about eight on a scooter,, skateboard with handle. she pressed the handle and the electric motor kicked in? she took off down the street like one of the jetsons. holy crap i thought. wish i had one of those. limping to the shops.

Used to do the occasional Skateboard stunt but not done a handstand for
a long time as last time I tried one all the change in my pocket ended
up all over the road

still got the road rash from the 70s

they should allow those segway scooters along with shotgun mounts on them.

Caisey Neistat uses one to get around New York. He's late 30's I think. Highly respected YouTuber with millions of followers. A large percentage of the New York population knows who he is, especially taxi drivers and bus drivers.

One of the good guys.

I bet they do

Tricks I used to do were Handstands, Long Jump from one board to another, High Jump and the usual 360's and other common stunts
I was one of the first to get O.J. wheels and special trucks I bought ball bearings from some place too to get faster..Great
times as a teen

Tony Hawk managed a 900 aged 48. I think I might be able to manage a 9.

The Chaser - yeah, that's him!

I liked his vlog where he was dragged around Boston on his skateboard by a drone and then hauled into the air by the said drone. Worth a look.
