Hi All,

I’ve been doing brazillian JiuJitsu for the last 7 years and recently got a pretty bad shoulder injury that’s going to keep me out for a while. I will likely be on the mats again at some point but not sure when.

I’m looking for something else to do in the meantime (and maybe for the long term). If your dad was in the same position as me, would you advise him for or against skateboarding? And if for it, how long should I try it before i decide if its for me or not?

Thanks!

Bicycle is a good idea. I just wish there’s hills here in Florida. Anything that looks like a hill is really a landfill.

My bicycle is 20 years old and I haven’t touched it in probably 5 years. Maybe I can think about getting a new one
