For me, it’s sticking my hand out of the window of a moving car. Whether I’m driving or not, I love having the windows down and waving my hand in the wind. I’ve loved it since I was a child and I’ll never stop doing it!

      Hell yeah! I thought I was the only person who did that. It’s fun and efficient.

      On a similar note, they make healies in adult sizes. Got a pair for my 21st as a gag gift, and ended up using them to walk my dog all the time. He’s a lil guy, but hes a dense 15lbs of muscle and he could pretty easily pull me up to that “oh shit” speed.

        I remember there being a guy in one of my college classes who’d roll down the aisle of the lecture hall on healies to his seat everyday. What a legend.

      I love skating in the parking lot with an empty shopping cart! But since I had a little unhappy accident I’m a bit afraid of using a cart full of groceries.

    Walking/balancing on curbs, retaining walls, downed trees in the forest - pretty much anything.

          I can recomend to do just something easy. Find easiest and shortest routine (that lasts 2 minutes, literally) and do it in the morning.

          Since I startet it, I feel much much better. It is not like full exercise, but at least muscles don’t hurt as much.

          I do:

          • Head and Shoulder Rolls x5 to each side
          • Hip Circles:l x5 to each side
          • Arm Circles x5 to each side
          • squats x10
          • some others similar warm up exercises when I feel like it (ex. malasana squat)

          Idea is to move every muscle in my body. It is not hard, lasts 2-3 minutes but makes my day few percents nicer.

    It’s not that often that I’m in a car I’m not driving anymore, but when I’m a passenger you can bet your ass I’m imagining a little ninja dude running along side the car, doing sick ninja flips over stuff on the side of the road.

    when you go shopping, push off with your trolley and pull yourself up to go for a little ride down an empty isle. 40m and I still do it

    Sandwich biscuits (like Oreo and the likes, but there are plenty local brands) are extremely popular among kids where I live. I still eat them, the same way as I did as a kid: split them in halves, eat the filling-less halves, and then join the halves with filling so I get to eat biscuits with 2x more filling.

      Oh thank god I’m no longer alone! Not that I probably was, I imagine tons of people do this, but I was the only one in my family that did. Whoo! There are at least two of us now!

    Laser tag. Shit’s great, the shine does get taken off somewhat when I do really well and rank top but all my opponents are small children and their parents look vaguely annoyed.

      I did this one about three years ago with my niece for her birthday party and her friends. Just a few of us adults took part as everyone else thought it was too childish.

      It felt great to scream and yell in the dark … I became a squad leader, rounded up my team and got them to scream as loud as possible as we charged the enemy … I also ran with my niece and ran cover for her … had a total blast and I was completely exhausted at the end of it all. Nothing like playing games with a bunch of sugar intoxicated ten year olds.

      I woke up the next morning and I couldn’t stand up … my thighs were completely crapped from having to crouch, walk and run for two hours the day before.

      All completely worth it though.

    47 and I still try to get out to a skatepark at least twice a week.

    No idea how long I’m going to be able to do it, but I’m going to make every session count.

      You’d be amazed. You’ll probably be doing it up to 60, as long as you don’t injur yourself.

        So, as long as I don’t don’t injure myself… in 37 years of skating…

        Are there any other options I could consider? Cause that ship sailed a long time ago :)

        Honestly though, while its forced me to change my style of skating, I enjoy it as much now as I ever have. Learning new tricks, getting a solid whole body work out, meeting and hanging out with new people, it’s all still there.
