Longboarders/Skaters?

Submitted by VictoryTheScreech t3_ynfm3n in springfieldMO

Are there any local longboarders/skaters anywhere in this city? I know ya’ll are out there. I would really like to meet a good group of folks that skate. I’m still pretty new to it (3 months) and it would be nice to have folks to meet up with and skate around.

I'm skating the far bowl (John's Bowl) at the skatepark at noon today. I'm 51, but I only started skating at skateparks when I was 47, so I'm still a pretty new skater. I'm always happy to help a new skater learn how to skate bowls. I teach high school wood shop, and I make my own decks. Here's a few I made. This one here is my best one so far. I longboarded for a few years before that, and I made a few of those too. Here's my first one and here's a more recent one.

Here's a trip I took to the Eureka Springs skate bowl which is an awesome little bowl in the woods.

Here's a trip my kids and I took to Montana to skate their moonscape style parks this last summer. It was awesome!

I'll bring a spare pool board to the park today in case you show up.

Watch a bleach-blonde boy put his longboard down, help his girl get her sunscreen on.
