Lloyd, I took up longboarding about three months ago at the age of 63 (I’m 64 now). Thanks for the inspiration, since you’re even older than me! And still longboarding. I too use a Big Stick. And also have taken some falls, but not since I went Big Stick. Here in Oregon we’ve got acorns and other woody stuff that falls on trails. I just got a 60″ bamboo Norgeboard that seems more steady over such obstacles. I also blog about my adventures in longbording. See my “skateboarding” category:
