Hehe...
My friend's mom saw DDR and seems to have fallen in love with it. From what I hear, she just bought two hard pads and DDRMax1/2.
She's 40ish.
I don't really know how much she plays or how serious she is about it, but she's the oldest person I know that plays. |

You're not alone, dude! I'm 30 years old. I say "old" because sometimes I need those breaks between songs just to catch my breath! If that's not enough, I'll go to options mode just for another 30 seconds. Heh. I can pass most 9-footers (on Max2, my local machine) on singles and doubles, even a few with A's. I have yet to pass a 10-footer. My first probably will be good ol' Max 300... I'm going to try for it next year. |

My mother is 51, and she plays DDR several times a week.
She liked DDR enough to buy a DDR Extreme machine.
Her favorite songs are Heaven is a '57 metallic gray and La Bamba. |

Another "old fart" here...I'm 30. I can A most 9's and have passed Max300 a couple of times with C's. My wife also plays occasionally, she's also 30 and she plays in the 5-footer range. I have a 32-year old friend that is just getting into it and my mom plays (!). She's 54 and can handle most 4-footers.
Us old folk are here...just watch out for our canes leaning against the machine! |

Well can I join the old DDRers club too??
I'm 26 and I sometimes feel like I am alone. Plus, I have a good friend of mine who I play with all the time who is 28. We're pretty adept players. I can most certainly say we are torney worthy.
If trying to AAA songs isn't any indication I don't know what is. AA's are nothing to the likes of us. So it goes to show that we old people can kick some buttocks as well. Go senior citizens!!!! _________________

20 here also. Yeah, I'll probably still be playing when i get up to 30. Great weight loss, and it keeps me in shape. Someone's gotta teach these young n00bs, right? _________________

I'll be "over 30" in just over a month. But then, there aren't any DDR machines in my area, so all I do is play at home. Nobody to give me weird looks other than my wife, my son, and my cat. |
