I was doing the run-drop-slide at 40 as well, but soon after learned why there are never any entries in the Senior Grand Master division despite it's relativly young age 50 cut-off. The falls are what eventually get you, enjoy it while you still can!

My hips are fine now, but I got to the point that one simple fall had me imobile for a week, and it was'nt just a freak occurance. After three or four wasted FL trips from day two on, I quit cold turkey.

Longboard, i hear ya! I get to skimboard maybe 4 times a year, living in the east coast, but when i do i am very cautious now. A hard wipe out on a skimboard is not fun! I am going to buy one of those skimboards that you can ride a wave back in, they a thicker. It's basically a mini surfer board, but they fly. I am sure you know about them. I have had the same skimboard since i was 13, the thing is all fiberglass and very heavy, it's a beast. I will do this until the body says no.
