>Should I really worry about that? Not even close. You're a just a kid. Tony Hawk is 46. All the guys in this video [VIDEO] are late forties or into their fifties. Jim Greco was 36 when he made this madness [VIDEO]. Here's a guy enjoying his 50th birthday [VIDEO]. At the park you'll see lots of grey haired dudes, old skaters passing it on to their children etc

Cruising around, dropping off curbs, ollies over beer cans, little slasher grinds, generally having a blast --- you're in the clear. Jeff Grosso [VIDEO] looks pretty old and fat in this clip and he's still flying around. I'd go for anywhere between an 8" and 9" for the deck and some name brand trucks and beari
