First I want to congratulate you on this awesomeness. It is a really cool thing.
Second... What is the age for "SENIOR" competitor? You look about our oldest boys age!!! Maybe you just don't age!
Great job keep it up. And keep up putting out those great videos.

Congrats. We all age but staying young (or growing old) is a state of mind.
I started longboarding with my son this summer. He's been skating for a while. He's bummed that I can already do better, faster, longer slides than
he can. I'm 43 physically but will always be around 22 in my mind. I don't heal as fast and I'm not as reckless as I once was but as you get older
you get wiser and wisdom goes a long way. Stay wise and young, my friend.

@ carl- congrats although since we are the same age i am not sure about the senior title- as broc said age is just a number living is a mindset.

Way to go Carl, congratulations! Age is definitely a state of mind and fortunately I don't get too wrapped up on my chronological state of affairs
either.

I think the title senior is to separate itself from junior. Anyone over 18 I'm guessing is considered senior in these sporting events. If there was a
competition for the person that contributed the most to helping others with their landboarding progression then I'm sure Carl would come first.
