Small world...
A week ago, I got my old skateboard out of storage. I remember it being a lot easier to ride.
I lubed it and adjusted the trucks. It was still hard to ride.
I wonder if being 70 years old has anything to do with the difficulty? My balance seems okay, but I can't move quickly enough to stay on top of it well.
My first skateboard was made from an old roller skate nailed to a 1x6 piece of white pine (no graphics.) It didn't turn very well because of the steel wheels.
