John makes everything look so smooth and easy. I can't even ollie, but I cruise around on a board a lot to get around. Don't know why I watch these videos, they're addicting.
Yooo this is my local park! That pyramid you were talking about at 0:30 is better used as a roll in to hit the euro gap/ramp next to the stair set. It's one of my favorite things to skate because you can get so much air time on your tricks, and the roll in gives you the perfect speed. The manny pad and flatbar area is also awesome, you can just send lines non-stop and when its a warm day, the trees keep that area shady. Please visit again! 😄
Love the explanation of the parks before you skate them it’s so interesting to watch you just talk and point at things lol and skating is killer as usual lol!
manuals take way more effort and time than most other types of tricks but they are also way more satisfying imo. it's more slow dopamine and that attracts some people more. you are so good at manuals and it's not always about getting it fast but staying motivated and concentrated for couple of hours to land one trick. feels so good when you finally get it
This is so true. On the days where you’re simply not in a headspace to be pushing yourself by jumping on rails or down stairs, a good manny pad can make the entire session.
honestly been loving that you fall really hard, sorry but its really entertaining and gives me a sense that you are actually trying to do it yk, great video I havent even finished the video lmao
Great vid as always, John. I think it’d be a really great addition if you would add some basic measurements in from some of the features. I watch these because I love skating and enjoy your vibe, but also because I’m interested in the design aspect. I’m sure many of us are. You mentioned the flat bar is possibly an inch or two high for your exact liking, but unfortunately there’s no reference point for us to go off. Same with the euro gap. I’m dying to know these dimensions haha. Just height and length mostly. I fully get that it can be a game of inches when you’re trying to design things to be perfect and suitable for fun daily skating. Just a thought! I know I’d be super stoked on it! I’m currently helping design a park in Tahoe. You spoke my biggest fear in this video… that the builders may screw everything up and it seems like it’s on you!
I feel like you should collab with Ben Uyeda(from homemade modern). I'm a big fan of both of you and you've both talked about how you're not focused on youtube anymore, but you both keep killing it on youtube lol. I feel like it'd be a really good conversation and you guys could probably build a pretty sick skate or parkour obstacle!
B O D I E D. Lol jokes aside, this park is up there for aome of the best ive seen on your channel. Plus, youre really good! Its cool to see the variation in what you skate and gow you skate it.
I like how critical you are of the parks, because I do the same thing. Most things are pretty off from being a good spot. Also the WIND... its almost always too windy when I go somewhere or just crazy hot or something to ruin the session.. (scooter kids also)
For your next skatepark review, go to Gibbel Skate Plaza in Hemet, CA. Dan Corrigan was recently there and said it was the best skatepark in california right now, on par with Poods park.
Hey John, I have a video idea. I just watched “Elf” for the first time and there’s a scene where Michael gets a skateboard from Santa. Santas book says he wants a “real huf skateboard with high 145 Thunder Trucks, 52mm spitfire classic wheels and bolts”. Thought it was funny that they actually said real parts and pieces. You should ride it and see if the kid had good taste. Happy Holidays John!
Skate parks should be designed with intermediate and beginner level skaters in mind. If there are obstacles at a skatepark that only Tony Hawk or Nyjah Huston can skate then it was a waste of money to build and most skaters will never use them. Keep it simple.
Not to mention that no one is too advanced to enjoy a great ledge or manny pad. Walker Ryan comes to my local in the summer and spends 90% of his time on the manny pad despite countless other obstacles being there too.
Man.... I'm just a few hours from you in vegas. I'd love to meet up and skate with you!... side note: PRod park is up there in addition to santa clarita.
Are there just an unlimited amount of skateparks in California? It's insane! When I was skating we had zero parks in my city. We had a DIY "park" inside of a giant warehouse that caught on fire so we just legally accessed it and put ramps and stuff in it. We also had a roller rink that had some shitty ramps and rails that brought them out for skaters once a week.
something that i see about skaters that just erk my process of watching skateboarders is the amount of excuses that come into saying they want to do this but this affects for a person who been skating most of their life should admit that skating is j has been conjointed to coming up with useless responses when they have expierenced the most bs other than everyone else but none the less its personal prefence
Not only does the cost include parts and labor but you throw in surveyers, politicians, paperwork, DEI, ESG, misappropriation, earmarks and slush funds. Then, you got an grossly inflated cost to the park
these skate parks make my mouth water, my locals are pretty bland and terrible, mostly transition and no street, but im a street guy I want street, such a shame that I cant do anything street unless I actually go ccruising street
Hey man you have a lot of videos about how much the skatepark cost and this cost that and what not.. I just want to give you some advice maybe improve your views. No one literally cares how much a skatepark costs. Cheers
lmao dude you LA guys have it way to freaking good if you are using the wind as an excuse when its literally the lightest little breeze. "ah bro theres too many clouds in the sky today, this session is a no go" LOL. come to seattle and you would literally never skate a single day out of the year.
I like watching your videos but it sounds like your constantly complaining about one thing or another. I wish you would just skate and enjoy yourself instead of making excuses why your not
John makes everything look so smooth and easy. I can't even ollie, but I cruise around on a board a lot to get around. Don't know why I watch these videos, they're addicting.
frrrr
It’s years of practice, it helps a lot looking at yourself while filming so you could adjust your style to not look so uncomfortable as you go :)
@@dom385 yeah
you should learn! its takes time to learn things like that search up some videos or if you got some homies that skate ask them! its worth it to learn
I sat down to eat a whole 1.5 Qts of Moose Tracks Ice Cream and I got this notification. Thanks John for impeccable timing.
This is some of the best skate content on RUclips. It really makes we want to skate again.
Love that the one trick on the manual pad inspired you to stay twice as long as the rest of the session up to that point. That’s skateboarding 🙌🙌

Bro im always there i might know u
Love the explanation of the parks before you skate them it’s so interesting to watch you just talk and point at things lol and skating is killer as usual lol!
keep it up man i just found your youtube and ive been skating for 1 year i love how chill you are
i try to use your vids as background videos while doing homework but i always end up just watching them and not doing homework lol
Dude same lmao, I just get hypnotized by his sick ass skating

I’ve always been looking for this tut

Been watching for a while and only finally subscribed lol entertaining content dude

One of the 5 skateparks I skated on my cali roadtrip a couple years ago, so cool to see it on your channel
Keep killing it
Really like seeing parks where they leave the tree and or build around the pre existing trees. But I don’t like hollow ledges with empty undersides.
Love the smooth jazz you use!
Keep making videos exactly like this please
B O D I E D. Lol jokes aside, this park is up there for aome of the best ive seen on your channel. Plus, youre really good! Its cool to see the variation in what you skate and gow you skate it.
Awesome as always! Wait until you get to your mid 30s that slam will hit different. Hope you’re alright in the morning dude 👊

The 180 to manual fakie flip was nice and steezie 🔥🔥💙
I love all style of your videos just enjoy watching you
Multiple hours of attempts don’t always end with a manual trick that clean, nice work. Makes me want to try that one.
Love your videos! Man I would be so lucky to skate that park. I love the lay out and it seems like everything there is prettt much solid.
But you’re goated keep it up love these style of videos
Gosto muito desse tipo de vídeo
Definitely check out La Quinta X Park
Great video
I was actually crushed when I was watching this yesterday and it got taken down. Can’t wait to finish watching lol
maybe im getting old but the double rail looks sketchy af to me but besides that scaried cat stuff it looks like an awesome park.
ayo wtf i knew my local the second the video started
Great slam
For your next skatepark review, go to Gibbel Skate Plaza in Hemet, CA. Dan Corrigan was recently there and said it was the best skatepark in california right now, on par with Poods park.
seems like a super solid park for 1 mil considering what weve seen that costed multiple millions.
It must been a survey online by the town to get feedback what add to park before it build then added up to most. Wanted go from there
New obstacles keep it exciting.
No way!!!! You were at my local park! Can’t believe I missed skating with you man!
Throw in a goofy ahh bowl, and lil more flat ground, and I'd call it frickin' perfect
Hemet California’s skate is goateed in my opinion 😋
i think that you need to come back to this park and do a nice 180 fakie manual fakie 360flip out, or fakie manual fakire treflip
Can you please do a video on swift Cantrell park in Kennesaw Georgia it’s a street League park
Very nice! Someone made a great SUV choice as well at the end there. Fancy.
Good video

I feel like it’s something Johnny ringer would also make

Looks like you are having a good time. Ribs and all. Stay Rad
In bed sick. Thanks John
So good
You have to fucking grind to get to that bump to rail I stg I’ve felt your pain sm on that one lmao
Man.... I'm just a few hours from you in vegas. I'd love to meet up and skate with you!... side note: PRod park is up there in addition to santa clarita.
Skateborts
skanteboart
Cool skate aprk😊
are the long vlogs over or just when you feel like making them?
I didn't even know we had this skatepark lol
these skate parks are the only reason I would want to live in America the skate parks are amazing and plentiful
Are there just an unlimited amount of skateparks in California? It's insane!

I feel like every single skate park stairs are wayyy too long
Wish the vids were longer
Did dude really blame the wind? *slight breeze in background
These intros man😂😂😂
hahahaahahaha. wind! what wind?? had it too good for so long
that euro is prob one of the most skated obstacles there lol
im skating that euro gap
What do you think the cost of materials were to make this park?
Spawn ranch? -sounds like Spahn ranch where the Charles Manson family used to live at LoL
What is these plastic bars in the middle of the board for ?
Fuckin 9.9 outa ten cause where is the mini ramp on the side ? But i would love to skate there
Hahahaha too windy to skate. This dudes hysterical!
something that i see about skaters that just erk my process of watching skateboarders is the amount of excuses that come into saying they want to do this but this affects for a person who been skating most of their life should admit that skating is j has been conjointed to coming up with useless responses when they have expierenced the most bs other than everyone else but none the less its personal prefence

mob psycho 100 shirt :)
Deja vu
these skate parks make my mouth water, my locals are pretty bland and terrible, mostly transition and no street, but im a street guy I want street, such a shame that I cant do anything street unless I actually go ccruising street
Skatepark cost $300.000 and they embezzeled $1M in tax money
❤💯
"the wind is limiting my skating"
.. bruh, leaves on groun not moving
7:07 Peter Griffin
This park sucks, wish they atleast made a bowl, no flow at all, always windy and impossible to get speed to hit the bump to rail
If anything looks like a challenge it’s “to big” smh this guy wants to skate little shit till he dies lol
🤟🤟🤟
always finding something negative to say about a park before you even skate it smh
🛹🛹🛹
Hey man you have a lot of videos about how much the skatepark cost and this cost that and what not.. I just want to give you some advice maybe improve your views. No one literally cares how much a skatepark costs. Cheers
That park is worth $200,000
1st
I'm not 100% sure, but I think the wind was affecting your skating.
Do you skate?
sucks how much you hate transition. I see a perfect hip and your like no too steep
lmao dude you LA guys have it way to freaking good if you are using the wind as an excuse when its literally the lightest little breeze. "ah bro theres too many clouds in the sky today, this session is a no go" LOL. come to seattle and you would literally never skate a single day out of the year.
Nope this park is in a place where a lot of wind actually kicks up sometimes it’s really hard to skate.
Damn...you are getting old. On the plus side....I have been watching you long enough to notice.
noob
I like watching your videos but it sounds like your constantly complaining about one thing or another. I wish you would just skate and enjoy yourself instead of making excuses why your not
Hard disagree. I don’t think accurately explaining things is ‘complaining’.
He’s kinda reviewing the skateparks and telling you his thoughts on em what else did you expect?
