wdym you just started skating? like you're leaning how to push or what? my advice is have fun and learn a lot of flat ground because you'll enjoy having absolutely shredded legs

how old are you ?
If you're not a teenager, don't you think it's ridiculous to start skateboarding when you're old?

you only have one life, might as well try it. I started at 200 and granted I'm not that good now (can land basic flip trucks and shuv variations) it's still enjoyable and even therapeutic I would argue. Not to mention it's a good form of cardio. I know a guy who skates daily even in his 40s, it's really up to you how far you want to push yourself

I motivated myself at 35yo (1 year ago) to buy a new skateboard and train almost every sunny day, after quitting my job. It was the best thing to do, as said before the mental and physical improve is real, and in one year I can see the progress. A good thing if you live in a city is to try to break your shiness by skating in the same place as other skaters, they will hopefully talk to you and give you advice. Internet is fine too, to learn, but it will never be as efficicent that IRL advice, of experimented skaters.

I started giving advices to begineer skaters after less that 6 months of training, still yesterday some girl talked to me and tried to go down stairs with my skateboard.

Also : get some pads, even for street skating. It will improve your confidence, and you'll push the limits faster.
