OG professional skateboarder Omar Salazar got back on a board during his lunch break and filmed a quick line after being inspired by a night of skating with the homies.
Omar said watching his 61 year old friend “Slappy” skate and hearing him talk with Hali about what skateboarding means to the soul gave him the motivation to get back out there.
Skateboarding never really leaves you.
No matter how much time passes, the feeling is still there waiting for you to step back on the board.
It lives in your soul forever, and Omar’s return shows that the love for skating never fades.

"I got inspired on my lunch break today, grabbed my friend’s board, and filmed a little line.
I think the inspiration came from last night hanging out and watching my 61-year-old friend “Slappy”, seeing him skate, and listening to him talk with my friend Hali about skateboarding and what it does to the soul.
That energy stayed with me.
This one goes out to my Prism fam, @cfl_atelier brothers, @seancee1 and@tinyavenger72 for giving me inspiration to get back on the board.
Thanks to @chriselizondo_ for filming and editing"
