Had a ct scan showed small hernia. I don't lift weights so not sure how I got it but was curious if anyone else had them or lives with them and still skates?

Here we go again!

Yesterdays sesh was pretty great!

New High Concave feels amazing, very responsive on shove and popshoves!

So I fell during my second lesson while doing a kickturn on a ramp. Fell during the pivot and landed weirdly on my shoulder causing it to dislocate. Holy crap that hurts! As far as they could see I didn’t do any other damage but I’m out for at least 6 weeks.

It’s the first time I seriously fell and hurt myself so right away my head went into this cycle of, “how will I ever get the guts to get on a board again?”

Now I know falling and injuries are part of the game but it was such a clumsy situation and the pain was pretty intense, that feel the fear creeping up on me.

Does anyone have any tips for dealing with this because I was having so much fun and don’t want to give up skateboarding!

Thanks!!

Skated for a bit back in 2005-2006, learning basics getting cops called etc. never picked it back up till a couple years ago

Bought new deck couple years ago and have discovered a skate park which is quickly becoming addicting.

I love the sensation on transition and have carved and pumped around my first bowl

Now I can’t wait for the weekend off so I can spend pretty much all day at the park.

Everyone at the park is so friendly and welcoming and it’s a positive place to be

I must wear pads and wrist guards and I try not to let the younger guys talk me into stuff

Also my body is killing me mostly plantar fasciitis in my right foot I’m goofy, but I still keep going.

But anyway wanted to say hi

I guess the bug has finally bit me

I used to watch this chill vid of Rodney Mullen doing cool shit in a school lot on youtube, maybe an elementary or middle? His board and how young he was makes me think 80's or early 90's. But the video disappeared from Youtube and I can't find it anywhere else. Imma be mad bummed if I remembered the vid wrong and it was actually someone else.

Went past a skatepark the other day and got inspired to take up bowl skating, I used to street skate in my teens but bowl skating really appeals to me now.

Been doing some digging recently and am liking a more subtle old school shape like the Blast 10" Mascot Doodle but then I've also been looking at the Heroin Egg boards like the 10" Curb Killer. I haven't been able to find much on Egg boards being used for bowl skating though.

I was wondering if anyone had any experience with Egg boards in bowls? Am I missing something or might these be good for Bowl skating?
