    Seriously every episode is just gold .....skateboarding has come such a long way... From being seen as a pastime for punks and criminals , looked down upon by the general public, to being seen for what it is, an amazing art form that celebrates perseverance, creativity, & community... This show really captures what skateboarding is....

      I’m an old guy now and I’m watching this on a construction site as I’m getting ready to leave and I guarantee my eyes look red right now because I’m tearing up. This is so pure. I love it.

      @jasondashney 6 місяців тому +1

      I am an old guy now well past my prime, but I’m watching this just before leaving a construction site and I bet my eyes look red because they’ve been tearing up. I miss the days of pure innocent joy out with my friends, trying to figure out what skateboard can do. Not a care in the world. What I mean is I certainly had things to worry about off the board, but when I was with my friends skating, none of it mattered. This video is so pure.

      Isn't it funny how Red Bull shows up to virtue signal & make themselves look good while leaving behind absolutely nothing to make skateboarding sustainable for these people? It's kinda like "here's a couple of setups to roll on for a few months until they're completely trashed and you have to go back to your life of poverty...enjoy!"

      ​@TheHevquip you clearly have never been to a third world country. Shit that lasts us a few months lasts people there years - if not decades - because they continue to repair it.

    Wow. After undergrad I packed up everything I owned, sold it, and moved from Canada just north of Mokono in Uganda. This was in 2016-2017, so it was before the skatepark there was built. To see this is phenomenal. I would have visited in a heartbeat. I sent the link to Brian Lye, in hopes that he sees what a positive impact he has had on the country and skateboarding as a whole. My biggest regret is not bringing my board to Uganda, but I'm happy he did. Thank you for the episode. Beautiful, and very touching. ❤️
