My 10yo loves skating and I’m starting to wonder if I made the right choice introducing it to him. /s

Flailed a pop shuvit and landed hard on my side earning this gem of a bruise. Fell hard two other times and currently icing the lower half of my body.

I turn 45 in a few weeks, is it ok if I wear padded shorts or is that like the equivalent on wearing Depends?

I’ll take a free Del Beef burro any day.

My ‘11 needed new shocks, probably 20k miles ago to be honest. It’s my daily driver and our family vacation/adventure vehicle so I wasn’t looking for anything more than new shocks and a little leveling. We do go off road quite a bit but just forest roads and an occasional rock garden that stock with more aggressive tires handles fine.

Anyways, I went with the cliché Bilstein 5100s all around. Added new springs in the rear to bump it up 1” and had them go up 2.5” in front. I wanted to stick with stock wheels and wasn’t looking to go bigger on tires either. It looks subtle enough to me as far as leveling things out in front and going an inch up in rear.

Picture on the trail was before and the other two are after.
