They skate at 70! These three personalities are amazing.
Challenging preconceptions, Lena, Neal and Jacky show us that there’s no age limit on having fun on a skateboard. See for yourself: at 70, they radiate happiness, they skate, and it’s wonderful to watch!
We constantly hear “I’m too old for this crap…” The fact is that both mind and body lose some of their vigor as we get older.
Other people's opinions or social pressure usually make us follow the crowd. The willingness to pursue what's good for us without worrying about what others think isn't a quality our society encourages much. Who would risk looking different or eccentric to others? The answer is that only a minority of people see the world differently. And perhaps that is the outlook we should take inspiration from after all?
Look at how well-balanced, young at heart, open-minded and athletic they seem. They're an example at their age! Grandma, when are you taking up skateboarding?
Lena takes acrobatics classes and loves graffiti art. She is living proof that age is just a number. At 61, Lena traded her bicycle for a skateboard and started enjoying her city in a unique new way. Her enthusiasm for her favorite sport has inspired people around the world, and these days she teaches young and older people how to skateboard, encouraging everyone to have fun.
“How old can I get and still act young?” Neal shows that you’re never too old to have fun on a skateboard. It’s so inspiring. Skateboarding really is a gift.
For us, it's clear: there's no age limit for starting something. If we can contribute to our skaters' happiness, we do so with the greatest pleasure. Our club, skate school is available to you from ages 4 to 77!
