Skaters Over 40

A global community of more than 40,000 skateboarders aged 40 and older who actively skate. Emphasizes real skateboarding over board collecting, providing a supportive, zero-ego hub to share session clips, injury rehab strategies, setup tweaks, and local meetup planning.

With over 40,000 members worldwide, Skaters Over 40 is one of the most active online spaces dedicated purely to older skaters. Unlike groups focused on vintage deck hoarding or wall hangers, the community rule is “strictly skateboarding”: members post clips of their weekly sessions, celebrate small progression milestones, and trade practical advice on stretching, knee braces, and shoe padding.

The group serves as a valuable resource for finding local skate buddies, with members frequently organizing informal early-morning weekend meetups at neighbourhood skateparks across the US, UK, Canada, and Australia.
