Hey guys, I know it's been awhile but career and injury have been keeping me busy.
I have been getting out about once a week to skate but haven't been filming. I plan on getting a new video and session in next week though before I go on vacation. In the meantime the folks at www.akasotech.com have been kind enough to send me a Stand Up Paddleboard to try out. You can get one for yourself as well at 40% off by using the code KOLSUP at checkout. Lets savor the end of summer! Keep after it. www.akasotech.com/paddle-board
See you for a video next week!

Hey, guys. I know I haven’t posted in many weeks. Initially the snow we had here in Jersey spread out over three weeks was keeping me off my board. In the meantime I was doing some snowboarding to fill the void. I got out for a little bit of a skate session last week right before my birthday and had a decent time and while I did film, I just didn’t have the will to edit and post it. That brings us up to this week when I went out to get one last snowboard session in at mountain creek before the season ends. I’ve gotten a lot better this season but of course even while being careful I took a hard, toe side slam on my very first run of the day and did something nasty to my right shoulder. I’m really hoping it’s not a rotator cuff issue but I am currently at an urgent care facility to try and figure it out.
The weather is getting warmer here and people are getting vaccinated so I am hopeful that if this injury isn’t too severe I can get back out on the pavement in a few weeks. Hope all is well in your world.

Hey gang, so I can't really skate this week as I tweaked my knee last Saturday after coming down from a back side 180 on a bank and doing the splits. Wasn't filming, just hanging with a buddy and getting a small little session in. I've been resting and taking it easy on my right leg but I may be out for a few weeks while it heals. We'll see if I can get some other content up and online but for now I am staying off of the board until i can get healthy. Keep after it.

Just a heads up gang. I thought I would get around to editing my latest video before leaving for our family end of summer vacation but alas it didn’t happen. Next video will drop in about a week!

After a week in Vermont and a couple of days home with my kids i finally got out for a session today only to find a crowded skate park. Will try and finish up the edit tomorrow and get it online. Been itching to skate and want to get another session in on Friday.

Hey gang, thought I was going to get an edit up and online from my Friday session last week before I took off for this weekend vacation but it looks like I won’t finish the edit until later this week when I return. Have a happy July 4th everyone!

Look who just learned how to use community posts!
Just writing to let you know that I have a video coming. Been really busy, it has been raining all week, and it will continue to rain through Saturday.
Hoping to get an edit up later today and with all this weather it might be my only one for the week.
Be well and skate on.

I am a stay at home father of two who makes his living as an actor in NYC, you can check out my acting stuff here: jaegerthomas.com/
I began skating at 40 having never stood on a board before in my life.
As I approached my 41st birthday I decided to start this channel to document my progress. From just getting comfortable cruising and learning to ollie, in that first year, to the more difficult tricks I am taking on now, I post daily videos Mon-Fri to help keep me accountable and connect with the skating community at large. Thanks for subscribing, liking, and commenting.
I currently shoot with a GoPro Session camera: shop.gopro.com/cameras/hero-session/CHDHS-102.html
With this mount: shop.gopro.com/mounts/3-way/AFAEM-001.html
and edit it all down in Final Cut Pro.
My current board set-up: 8.25" Revive Deck, 144 Indie Trucks, Jessup Griptape, and 54mm Spitfire Formula 4 wheels.
