Now that’s funny and so true. In some public restrooms you can see the dark spot on the wall over the urinals where the old fellas put their hands to do the lean.

Thanks brah. It's done out of necessity, I have boys to raise and I'm not yet willing to give up the big surf (I did have to give up freestyle MX last year though).

Been living with my neck since 2006 ..2011 competed at National level body building Top 6 finish .

At age 50 the wheels came off for my neck .Debilitating.Highly regarded specialist do not want to operate at this stage ,treating conservatively .
C3-C7 looks bad ,no inter-vertebral spaces left ,oesteophyte formation ,but no neurological signs in the arms and hands eg. pins and needles ,numbness .

So,I would say age 50,but due to the above .

Stellar performance, I know what it takes to get there, pure dedication on your part. I have a Seal buddy who's still competing at 56, he'll be at the Tampa Pro this month.

I truly wish you a speedy and gentle recovery and rehabilitation.
