    Really awesome chilled session, loved that vid! Great idea to just take trucks out... Got me thinking now for when I go to Spain 🤔 Ride on grind and those drops down the ledges were cool 😎

      I felt so good on the day even though not everything was flying, but I was so happy. I think I get a lot out of the little wiggly challenges vs "do a trick"

    Was waiting on your tuesday vid to come out and damn i not expect a vid like this. Love it!
    Smart to take the trucks on holliday incase ya got the itch.
    Love the Jack Wilkins song choice aswell, reminds me of a Tribe called Quest.
    They sampled it in one of ther songs, if you know you know ;)

      Stoked to deliver on the video! It felt too cheesy to use Mariachi tunes for the vid, but that Jack Wilkins track was on my playlist for the trip, so it gave me the vibe. I was so pissed to find the camera sound was so f**ked so copyright be damned.

    Loved this video mate! Such a cool vibe and great backing music. You’ve upped the ante on travelling channel uploads now, I don’t even leave Dawlish 🤣

    Man, great session and awesome holiday! I was going to say you should pop up to Mississippi and we could skate since you're in my continent, but I looked it up and its only a 37 hr drive lol! Maybe next time! 😉 Great video, got a nice memento too with that deck. 🤙🤙

      I've been to Mississippi a couple of times in my life (pre-skateboarding) & I'm sure I'll return.
      Regarding the deck - at the end of the trip I went to a local park and gave it to a kid who's board had just snapped. Perfect ending.

      @@Ungracefulmovement Well done! My son and I have decided to be on the lookout for any clearance or sales on a decent starter completes to have on hand in case we come across any kid who might benefit from an upgrade. We've seen some kids trying to learn on absolute walmart junk.

      Thank you. Tbf there’s a lot of things like that I love doing (scare me and feels like an achievement) but they just look shit on video.

    That was an interesting looking park. It looks fun but dangerous at the same time. Would like to skate that ledge set up they have there.
    I'm getting ready for my Paris trip next week so hopefully I'll be able to get some good videos from there. I just hope the weather holds up as its saying rain for most of time.

      I just hope its dry enough to skate. I keep looking at the weather and its changing all the time, says rain for everyday I'm there now.

    you should give your complete skateboard to a local kid once you leave mexico ! They would remember forever

      Couldn’t give up my Ace trucks, but I did give the deck to a local kid. He’d just snapped his board so the timing was perfect.

    If you ever make it back go to La Plancha, a large park in the city center. There is a large modern skatepark with massive pools with lots of vert and areas where you can just carve lines all day doing snake runs. It's lit up for night riding and theres a beer garden next to it...

      I went there, but the National Guard stopped me because I didn’t have a helmet. Since I could only skate early in the morning it wasn’t possible. I loved Mérida so much I want to return one day!
