Longboarding

Skateboarding, with some exceptions, is a young person’s sport. I just don’t bounce like I used to, and now that I have to pay for my own health insurance, hitting the concrete just isn’t as fun as it used to be.

Instead, I think a skateboard’s bigger brother, a longboard, is an awesome way to cruise the local sidewalks and streets in a little slower, more controlled way. I say that knowing full well that some people put on full motorcycle gear and take hills as 70mph, but for me, a slow cruise by the beach is calming.
