Sector 9 | Victor Earhart Finds a New Hill
Спорт
Age is only a number, fear is only relative. Victor Earhart is a shining example of living life to the fullest and neither age nor fear will stop him. 61 years of skateboarding and counting...
*Disclaimer* - Just because Victor doesn't wear safety gear doesn't mean you shouldn't! Skate safe!!

I am old like Victor and just bought a Sector 9 Longboard for myself for my 68th birthday. Thanks Victor!

I bought a Sector 9 for my 46th (7 yrs ago) my kids were too young to have any idea of the ramps, pools & parks I used to skate 30 years before. Took them a few days to see that I wasn't nuts! Still riding it. Taking it to San Diego again next month.

RIP Victor. Respect for living life to the fullest. If you like it, try it. Age must not be a factor. People say to me too i will break something for starting longboarding at 48, but i love it!

Jeannet van der Deijl You'll love it, the wind against your hair and everything, just get good bearings to really cruise non stop. I recommend bones reds bearings.
"Where do you go, my sweet grandpa?" "bombing downhill dude. see ya!" :-)
I keep watching this in awe. He personifies "age is just a number & old is an attitude". He is so smooth applying his technique to downhill. RIP to a good example of ageing disgracefully - old guys rock!!
RIP Vic, my inspiration, I'm 45 on a 45" longboard from Sector 9, my daily transportation!!
Victor is such a great insparation to someone like me who started skating at forty.
Died too young. Rip vic
he is... the most interesting man in the world.

Gotta love watching Victor! He's always got a smile on his face.
Gosh, I love this. RIP Victor. You amaze me.
You'll be missed Victor!
It is a blessing to see the birth of skateboarding and it's progression throughout time. The first episode of the A-team shows B.A. making a skateboard out of a board and an old broken skate.
Victor... you are a inspiration to us all.
respect to the camera dude.

Truly inspirational, I bought a sector 9 longboard at age 50, I had never skated before, I thought it might help my surfing which I started at age 48. Apart from discovering asphalt and concrete are much harder than our local shore break. I also discovered that I have no idea how to stop, which really made me, much more focused the first time I went down hill. I need to clear the driveway and dust off the board again, it really did help my surfing which has gone backwards since the board started gathering dust

Same here, keeping low like Victor means putting a slide glove out to slow you down keeps things in check. He's a Hero.

Now this is what you call a die hard, respect for the oldtimer.
Great respect to Victor!
Respect for him. I've gathered he's gone. I love seeing my elders illustrating how I should be living. Thank you brother. I will. R.I.P.
this is what a long board loves-any long-board dreams of finding a rider like this!!!-super RAD
what are you gonna look like when your old with all those tattoos? idk mom probably like this guy
That's wonderful!! Good luck, and safe riding Vic! Wish you all the best!
Rest easy my friend. The community will miss you
if he doesn't fear death that should be even more respect

Bombing endless hills in heaven
I am 34 years old at the time of writing this and I have a longboarding for about 10 years, I have to be this dude someday. Got to do what you enjoy.
This is so great man! I started two years ago with 55 years with a Carver board and now I make my own decks with epoxy and you show in your video where I have to go for! Thanks!

Yea Victor!!!! You're inspiring me to keep shredding dude!
I have a 23-year-old board that I bought in Imperial Beach California when we went there on vacation, I still have it and a occasionally ride it the summer months here but mostly it's used to hold a sound bar for my TV. I often look at it and remember the great Summers I had in California with my family.
"Where are you going grandpa victor?" *"Im going to bomb some downhills in heaven dude. See ya!"* RIP
I want to be like him when I’m older
Props man, I'm 58 and you are my inspiration. I'm never giving up longboards. I started at 8 and 50 straight years this year.

I'm 59 and ride a landyachtz Evo spectrum, a dinghy blunt, a sector nine mini cruiser and a Kevin Harris Powell Peralta freestyle board.
Victor, laying down some smooth turns at speed. Nice. :)
That old guy is awesome! He rock's
This is wholesome as hell and keep thrashing Victor
Whoever filmed this did an amazing job
Love this Cat!!
Another hero discovered on KZread. 🔥 🔥 🔥
You're never too old. Guy gives 33y/o's like me hope!
Wen i be old i desire to do something like that, congrats Victor!
Awesome!
I love his set up
Love this song by Wayne Williams. I'll bet Victor took his longboard with him and is teaching the Big Man above some cool moves.
Rocking the Herschel beard. Mad respect.
Ride in peace...
10 more years and I will be the same age and I am sticking to my Landyachtz

Respect!!!
Bought myself a longboard for my 53rd B-day. An Atom drop-deck, and I love it! Also put Bones 'Reds' in the wheels. Last board I bought new was 40 years old----a 'GT Coyote'. (Ask your grandpa about those!! :D) I also bought my first pieces of safety equipment, although we bombed plenty of hills in my day with none, but it probably takes longer to recover from any crashes once you pass 50 (or even 40, for some people)
Man that looks fun..
Death can never take a good man away, for in the hearts of the people he inspired, the legacy remains and continuous throughout generations
Legend!!
BUEN VIAJE MAESTRO VICTOR EAR HEAR

I am 50 and just picked up a 36" x 9 deck from Skate Shred. Totally huge 90mm wheels as well in order to try just going down the street again. It's not fun getting fat staring at the TV or computer!
He will live forever
Wow great knees
É isso aí parabéns DEUS quer que a gente viva bem o tempo todo GLÓRIA A DEUS por você. (Brazil)

Ride on, bro!!
Great video! I'm 57 and go cruisin' downhills in CT on a sector 9 several times/week . Looking for somebody who is up for joining me on pristine roads. Must know how to drive.
RIP LEGEND
