Lloyd Kahn, Still Skateboarding at 91

The Whole Earth Catalog's shelter editor took up skateboarding at 65

Lloyd Kahn worked as an insurance broker until 1965, then jumped into the counterculture’s DIY-building movement, edited the Whole Earth Catalog, and in 1973 published Shelter — still considered the bible of hand-built homes. He didn’t take up skateboarding until he turned 65. In a short video profile by Sierra Clark, he’s shown at 91 running, paddleboarding, and still riding, motion as habit rather than exception.
