It is never too late man! I do not know your age but @stickchumpion is 40+ and is still ripping! I say go for it. Even riding a skateboard will make you feel f*cking awesome.
I won't lie though, injuries are a really common thing in skating! Hehehe.

Yeah, the community is growing every day man. We have almost reached 90 followers and more than 20 active posters. Not bad for a niche community.
