    New "Caruso Knee Rehab Plan" is to just skate across America. Side effects may include chunked wheels, high slim jim intake, and propensity to say "yo" to livestock.

Going to try and do a mile with ya on the last day! All your videos and IG posts have been such an inspiration to me over the last few weeks and now that i just watched this one, I'm going to get a quick sesh before the storms today! See you soon.

    The main difference with the Appalachian mountains and the mountains you came from is the width. The mountains you have already passed were very steep and long but not very wide. The Appalachians are very wide so you will be going up and down and up and down. Just know once you get through the Mountains and Piedmont regions its all flat plains from there!
