You're definitely an inspiration - can't tell that you're 30 by how easy you picked up surfskating! 🔥

NEVER let age define what you can or cannot do. This was crazy fun and I’m definitely not gonna stop here!

Amazing compilation of surfskate learning, various beautiful environments and most important fun. Noob 55 year old downhill skateboarder and one of my comments (from sub) was to try surfskate to work on carving. Can’t even stand on the board, but will start training tomorrow (I have my own boards and bought 2 sets Carver C-7 that i put on today). Congrats on 4 week accelerated progression. Inspiring. 🙏🙇🏻‍♂️

Wow! What a fast progression! Dude, your city is super dope, seems like it was built for skateboarders from the get go! It's just a dream to have such huge smooth surfaces to ride on! Plus all the lights, colors and just that style man.... It.s a surfer paradise!

Just started at 32, intermediate skater and surfer my whole life and absolutely hooked!

Dude I have to say, your editing skills are outstanding. Dynamic shots, interesting camera angles, extremely chill and positive music, and not to mention you DO look cool on the board! Awesome stuff. Greetings from South Africa!

Well done, mate! I stumbled across surf skating when my youngest child (12) asked for a longboard last year. Found that surf skating was sure more interesting than longboards and we decided to go for it. Neither of us could skate. I was 52 and she was 12. So, exactly 1 year ago today (13 Aug 2020) we bought the same board you did, the Decathlon Oxelo 540 Carve Bird. It was the birds and the price that attracted us too! It became a great papa and daughter bonding activity. Took us a month to get into it without having prior experience with boards but it then started to click and we are now carving the paths together. Love not having to put my foot down at all. Like 8km of carving with no foot down except on steep slopes and steps. I sure ain't gonna do ollies, flips n stuff. Too old for that shit! Just digging carving. Skate surfing is sick, man! Didn't know about the park in cashew. Gotta check it out! Tks for sharing! Keep on keepin' on, mate!👍🏽😀

It's addicting isn't it? When you realize each board is going to feel different. next thing you know, where did this collection of boards and parts come from?

it rained. poor guy 😅. thanks for your sacrifice and review bro. I'm 37 and just went for surfskate classes. i'm so getting this board

I'm 36 and I've just bought the exact same one a week ago in Barcelona ! I'll try to progress as fast as you did ! You make it look so easy !

The production quality is insane bro. I was hypnotized. What a beautiful city you live in.

Your honesty in the video makes it so enjoyable to watch!

Really admire the fact that your trying ur best to learn and is not afraid to try new things and not be shy about it

That was so much fun to watch, both your journey as well as the video itself. Love your attitude and sense of humor. Keep it up!

Brilliant video, man. I'm 37 and just started on boards a couple years back. I thought my cruiser was fun but this looks awesome! Totally getting one now!

So nice to see you trying new things again. The pump track looks so hard!! Admire your courage! Great video!

Fantastic to see people my age taking up various things that usually younger people do. I’ve received got myself a mountain bike and just cruising around atm enjoying it a lot and I’ve thought about getting a cruiser board. Great to see someone my age trying new things. I don’t feeel as bad now

dude this is so cool, i started to learn how to skate in my mid 20's. kinda inspires me on buying another cruiser board

Great to see more folks surfskating! Thanks for sharing the joy of surfskating!

surfskates have imo the best aesthetic. just ordered my first one at 33 after not skating for like 16 years. can't wait to try it out.

Dude that looks so much fun! Wow, I'm packing my bags for Singapore! What a city - so much smooth concrete!

Can't wait to see more progression of your surf skating journey, you made me want to take up this as my hobby as well!!

I also just bought my first surf skate a few weeks ago! I started surfing and wanted something for those off days!! I had no prior experience and skateboard before so it’s nice to see I’m not the only one, and inspiring to see you go! Going on a cruise now :)

Keep at it man!! That was a pretty tough track to start out on and so I was happy to see you continue learning after that :) also the videography is beautiful, Singapore looks wonderful!

I'm turning 30 this Sept. Always wanted to cruise and skate. Looking at my first board, thanks for this 🧡 All the best.

I love to see how people all age start something new🤩 I'm 37 and ordered my first Skateboard some days ago. Was good at rollerskating when I was younger but didnt really try skateboarding but now I'm so excited😁 And this Surfskateboard is totally new to me but also pretty cool🤗

Just ordered my first longboard and watching videos to pass the time. Great video showing your development - looking great for just a few weeks! Also Singapore looks beautiful. Dedinitely want to go someday.

Nice video I got the same board for my 39th birthday a year ago. Then just switched out the wheels, bushings and bearings this year as a treat for 40th. its a nice fun board and to be fair great for the money

The production value of this video is off the charts. Wow, literally wow.

Love how you guys warm up! Smart!!!

Oh man this video really hit home, and the production quality is incredible! At 35 I just bought the exact same board from Decathlon 2 weeks ago. 3 sessions in and I fell off in a concrete bowl and broke my foot. The fun and fear in this video is so relatable and entertaining!

The way you edit the video is so cinematic! Nice!

Haha, this was awesome, SUBSCRIBED! I'm 66 just bought a surf skate a couple of months ago & loving it! You are killing it! YEEEWWW!! :)

Learned how to use it by watching your videos great job man

Man! This is inspiring. Just picked my pintail longboard, im psyched! Plus, i miss SG so much, cheers man

Love this!!! Ordered a surf skate for my 40th Birthday! I would love to see you hit up that pump track again after all that practice!

Keen on starting a new hobby!!!😍😍😍😍 I’m researching about it and came across your video! Great video!!! Didn’t know Decathlon have one!! Hopefully there’s still stock!

so cool! thanks for sharing ❤

Amazing locations!! And you did great!

Great video man. I have family in Singapore and Malaysia but I'm living overseas at the moment. and the first 10 seconds of the video are just so nostalgic 😅

Your video quality is amazing and I absolutely love your content! I'm 22 this year and your vids are definitely keeping me excited to grow up and learn more new things - especially with riding new boards and trying new hobbies!😁 Can I know what camera you're using currently - like your edit tools?

Awesome, really enjoyed watching you have so much fun

your content is legit as always! Love that you tried something that I'm not familiar with. Makes me want to give it a try! Got a longboard that I haven't touched in awhile, but watching you skate through SG- I think it's time to bring the board back out! And maybe try out surf skating too (especially since I love the carving feeling on the longboard!) Keep it up!

Wow. The pump track looks fun...looks like it takes quite a lot of practice for a smooth ride. I'm 32. Lived in Singapore for 11 years and now based in Sydney. Seeing you cruising around iconic places brings lots of memories and nostalgia. I also picked up skateboarding a month ago during the lockdown, now very into surf-skating. Own the same Carve 540 as my first board, then upgraded to Yow Pukas Dark 2 (equivalent to a BMW/Merc of surfskate). Would love to cruise with you one day bro when I can visit Singapore. Keep cruising and shredding

I absolutely loved this. Beautifully done. 🎥 ✨

Awesome to see ur progress bro! I only saw the end result but glad u documented the beginnings!

Your video it’s very encouraging and it inspire me to keep going on, I just started find it difficult want to give up but after watching your video I shall continue to work it out! And I love your video content! 👍🏻

Now i am going to buy one. It looks so much fun. Thanks for the great video

That stadium and bridge looks like a surf skater's heaven

32 here bro and just got my self my 1st surf skate. I used to skate when i was 13 and unfortunately life got in the way snd i forgot that feeling. Back to it now and loving it. Keep at it bro and keep skating 🤙 Much love from Australia 🇦🇺

Thanks for this amazing video I really enjoy it, and Singapore looks so incredible! you made me want to try surfskating

Love your determination! Keep it up!

You're a cool dude mate, was great video to watch, what a beautiful country Singapore is👍. You're definitely getting better champ keep these videos coming. Well done

thanks for your experience

I am in my late thirties and am learning long board tricks, I really appreciate your information about spraining your ankle and the fear. I'm going to be a bit more careful.

all of these camera angles are amazing !

Cool video and nice atittude bro. Keep pushing, and you will achieve your goal in no time, passion,fun and dedication are the keys to get into the skateboarding (Surfskate,longboard...) and you sure have those. Btw, how beautiful is Singapore, insane places.

It looks like so much fun! Can’t wait to try it myself 😝😍

For those looking for more advice: if you wanna skate and train skate regularly, happy cruising, Seems like you also might like a Long wheel based oldskool skateboard with wider trucks, maybe slappy 10s, with some 60mm 93a dragon wheels, every skater finds their niche, penny is close to polarizer skating, flat deck 42 dance/boardwalk skating is very niche due to the hyper dexterity and alertness it requires, usually it takes over 300 hours to perfect a single trick, similarly to Popsicle skateboarding aka freestyle. What i always recommend when exploring skating, which... same age, ive been skating since i was 6... 1. Play with different niches, but explore the high quality products, if you choose to go cheap, that is fine, usually you can get away with slowly upgrading part by part, a bearing set for instance can be swapped so you can always have nice bearings. 2. what are your experiences you think translate to skateboarding, standing on a low beam and walking around balancing on it is a good start, slack lining is another. 3. Exerciser routine, can you afford to swap essentially to stretching constantly, if no routine and finding for exercise, can you add daily stretching and cardio in? 4.types of skateboarding for beginner friendliness in my personal opinion. a. freestyle , massive community base, wide range of board mods and options, backpacks and other designs exist to ease carry. b. oldskool , low impact friendly, can be fast can be slow, can be rough, can be soft, you can kinda design your own board around what your doing. c.streetsurfer/carver longer board, the one in the video matches thais roughly, they often use wide truck bases, smaller "longboard aestetics", these are often bought for introduction to downhill sliding, the cheap starter wheels, and bushings usually crap out but the wheels often are ok and bearings will be lower abec for more resistance (slower) in the start d. boardwalk/42 (i think it now ranges from like 39"length (popsicle is often 31-32") to 52 now. highly opinion driven community, mixing parts from different sports is common, trucks from here, wheels from this, i want this, its a creative blend of everything in a very low impact friend way of rding, i personally have a 39, with slappy 9" and some 93a spitfire 58mms e. longboard high speed, downhill, heavy boards, lots of opinions, lots of idks, i just know that your gonna want be well rounded in how boards react before jumping into longboarding, especially drop decks and high speed sliding. once i have my collection all realized one day ill cover all these indepth.

I'm 42 and I have the same board but I changed the wheels to a 70mm 78A for better grip. Barely a month of learning as I don't ride everyday and haven't skated before bin my life. I'm enjoying it alot though. You are brave I would not want to try a pump track, yet. 😁

It's all about having fun!

Dope editing & soundtrack. Nice riding and filming. Awesome clip dude!

love the video bro.,.. can relate, just came back to SG after almost 6 years, got a mini cruiser and started learning to do manual skates.. i've been doing esk8 back in Dubai... stay safe bro

Great job man! Im 30 too and recently got back into skating. Got a 2nd hand landyachtz dinghy and loving it. I might try surfskate soon. Would recommend a good helmet though. Keep it up!🏄🏼‍♂️

I knew it was Singapore.... I was there last feb 2023.... It was a unique place.... And today i have just bought that carving skateboard!.

excellent video brother! very good edition. In the "pumptrack" you did not do it wrong, what prevented you from being able to achieve it was yourself, if you watch the video you will see that every time you fell it was because you got scared and lowered your back leg from the board. fear is the worst enemy. a big greeting from Argentina

I am 44 years old and waiting for my delivery. It will come in two days and I can't wait. Nice video.

Really loved the video man! I really loved the music choices and all the shots and the storytelling. This made me wanna visit Singapore really man.. And yeah I am gonna buy the penny board prototype from decathlon for real now and start my skateboarding journey.

This is awesome! And very nicely edited too! I just recently learned to surf on a trip to California and fell in love with it but have no access to the ocean where I live haha. Thinking about getting a surf skate!

33 and just started longboarding! 30s the new 20s!

love the vid man i just stred surf skating and its really fun keep up the good work

I really enjoyed your video !!! I first watched your cruiser one with the Yamba Penny and it gives me want to try both !! Keep filming and sharing, really inspiring 🙏🏼 Peace from France

I’m a thirty year old and just bought a triton board to learn how to surf skate too! Thanks for the inspiration!

Nice! Might give this surf skate a try someday. Right now all i have is a 38” dropcruiser longboard.

Recommended. Great. Ive never heard of this before. Surfskate. Nice

something about the ambient audio at 02:23 to 02:30 sound so soothing, it tears me up.

Love this!!

Awesome Dude! Now you are ready for a real Surfskate Board :)

I just got myself a cruiser from decathlon and my gosh i fell in love. Call it quarter life crisis or whatever. I’m enjoying it too much!

Wow~ looks awesome fun especially the pump track! Never knew Singapore has such a big boarding crowd. Wish I'd brought my surfskates over when I visited. Nice board btw~

ok im getting a penny surfskate now, that looks amazing, i love how you don't have to push

cool video shawn! got my decathlon board a year ago. as a beginner like myself, the board sure is stable and love it. really like seeing you ride the pump track. try bending and straighten your knees when you reach the hill and back down,as it creates thrust and speed. btw,wet surfaces are nasty. the board surface,cause i use it everyday, through time, the sand that acts as a grip to your feet will fall off slowly. so what i did, was scrape off all the sand, and replace it with grip tape, like on a traditional skateboard.(feet sticks real good). really love to use this board on pump tracks, bowl/pools, and going downhill on mellow hills. keep it up man!! - fariz, K.L.

good on you man for trying new things, pumping is all in the legs. try to focus on bending on your knees and keeping your upper half level. As you come up with a bump let your knees absorb it then push back down on the other side. it's all about timing and feel. keep it up.

Hi! I watched your video and I think it's great that you got a taste for a surf skate! I bought a Yow board last year and since then I've only been riding a surf skate! By the way, I made my first attempts at the age of 48! You're never too old to try something new!

what an amazing pumptrack! great skills man! nice

At 35 years old I just started longboarding again after almost 20 years. It is a lot of fun.

Dude I loved your video so much that’s a like and subscribe. I just ordered a long board.. I hope the board isn’t too heavy lol I might have to pick one of these up too.. my only concern? I’m a kinda of a big guy! (6’2”, 250lbs) I like that you found multiple boards. I’ve always wanted to own a board so knowing that they have different uses makes me want to look for one of these too.

I’m 50 and still love surfing and skating!

Good video my dude! The wife and me just started surfskating and we waiting for the same board to arrive by post any day now. Quick question if you got an answer: No wheel bite?

Am also a 27 year old boy who picked up skateboarding the past month. You are not alone and awesome work there !!!

hope to see you around the machperson neighbourhood with your new surfskate

Very inspiring video! I am getting a surfskate soon😄

Unfortunately at my age my back can't deal with hard boards anymore due to spine compression during hard carving sessions. Neverthless I'm a mechanical design engineer so I experimented. I found that if I move my carving trucks to flexible fiberglass/bamboo boards that the shock absorbing properties has allowed me to pump for a few hours where before just 30 minutes to 1 hour caused too much soreness and pain in my lower back. Now surf skating and even longboarding is doable again!!!

You will fine, my 1st surfskate at 40 years old and my 1st teacher broad also Oxelo Carve 540 Bird Longboard, Thanks him and now my 2nd one is YOW Chiba model

thanks for the nice city walk ,j hope to come and ride one day 😜👍🤙

What a nice video dude🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻

53 and still surf skating every day if I can. Sometimes I take it to the skate park. Keep it up

Beautifull video man! reaaly cool! greetings from Perú

go go go!!!

Never knew we had this pump track in sg! Definitely gonna check it out
