I have been skateboarding for five years. I'm a fan of old school and freestyle as you can probably tell by my username.

Skated for 6 years, took an 8 year hiatus, skated for 3 more months(broke bones) , got busy with new job/life/new kid/,quit for 3 years, and started skating again about 6 months ago. I do this two hours a week, skateparks only. I hate that i ever forgot how much fun i had doing this stuff...

I skated a lot in the mid/late 80's and early 90's.
I kinda left it behind in the mid 90's....
now, in the new millennium, I've got the skating bug again and I've been trying to get back into the regular skate habit. :)

Got started in the summer of 1978 on a plastic Streemline board from JCPenny that cost $8.99. I just used it for riding. I didn't do any tricks except for tic-tacs and kick turns. By 1979, I only rode it in my basement occasionally. I got back into it in summer of 2002. I guess that makes it about 3 1/2 years in all.

Okay, seriously. How did you become a mod with only 6 months of skate time under your belt? I figured you had to be skating a while...
