    Damn bro my heart skipped a beat when you tripped on the sidewalk with the semi behind you at 19:14. Do you think it is better to skate with traffic or against? Great vid and stay safe out there.

    Only 30 seconds in and my stomach DROPPED from the unexpected "I'm going to hold my viewers out in the air over a hundred-foot drop", lol
    And I'm wondering if you timed this right so you get to skate across my baby, the Chesapeake Bay Bridge, on the annual Bridge Walk day. I hope so! I loved doing that walk when I lived there.

    Dude, mad respect for your adventurous spirit! Do you get any joint pain after skating for these epic routes/runs of long distance? I wish I could but my knees would absolutely give up after 2 hours, lol. In my 20s I think I would've been able to though. 40s, ehh not so much.

    • @Skating_Squid
      @Skating_Squid  2 роки тому +5

    You started off the video well by stating you didn't want to be disingenuous by taking a short route or one that could be seen as "cheating". But you then went against that by finding not only a short route, but one that can definitely be seen as cheating. I hope this weighs on what's left of your conscience for the rest of your life. You should be ashamed of yourself. This was pathetic.

  • @McJaews
    @McJaews Рік тому +1

    Where I live, roller skaters are to act as pedestrians in traffic. That means they should use the sidewalk when available. If the sidewalk isn't available, they should stay on the left side of the road in order to better see motor vehicles approaching. The way you constantly have to check behind you is beyond dangerous. If you go on the left side of the road, you'll be able to make eye contact with oncoming drivers, and you'll be able to see silent hazards like cyclists or electric cars.
    I'm glad you made it through your journey okay. Please be safe.
