Today is day 40 of my 3,000+ mile skate from Venice Beach across the country to Virginia Beach ending at the @jackalopefest June 2nd-4th.
My route - www.komoot.com/collection/200... - Навчання та стиль
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.
Yoooo
You guys ready
Yooooo
That was me in the black Subaru that yelled at you! I wouldn’t even walk 79, let alone skate it! It was great seeing you in the wild man, sorry I couldn’t stop! Wishing you safe travels on the rest of your trip!
You hit him with his own “eeyyyooo” 😂
To be honest walking 79 might be harder. :D Nonetheless the distances he does are hands-down crazy. couldnt push 5 miles in one sitting
I knew it was a fan when I heard the YOOOO
Been sober from opiates and meth for about seven years and I started skating again about two years ago. I don't try anything crazy but I ride around with my dog and teach all the neighborhood kids how to kickflip and ollie. What you're doing is inspirational and I'm here for it man
Just donated brother, vaya con dios
I am sooooooo proud of you!!! First for winning the battle over your addiction,wich certainly wasn’t easy, but also for stepping up back on your board !!!!! I send you tons of love from the south west of France.
@@titou1again thanks friend. Life is so much better now.
Right before fent hit congrats!
Congrats bro!
hell ya brother. I am in a similar situation I also quit both up and down, and my dog is the only thing that kept me going through it all. I am so thankful to be here and people like you and Chad make me even more thankful so I salute you!

heads up I called news channel 5 in Nashville, they might make a story out of your journey. stay safe and put some ice on it.
I quit smoking weed and drinking 2 days before you started your journey. Watching your progress has been helpful keeping my focus on sobriety. Thank you 🤘🏼😆🤘🏼
Great Job, keep going brother
That's awesome man. Keep it up!
Good morning I hope everyone is doing well another beautiful day let's Skate
“Need a ride” “oh no I’m skateboarding across America”
What an epic answer
Twenty miles? That’s only 0.7% of my trip. Thanks but no thanks.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
If there is a movie it has to be called " No Thanks, I'm Actually Skateboarding Across America " lol
Hey Chad I broke my femur some years back and skating is so hard for me now but that's beside the point. I just wanted to say your an inspiration to me. When I'm pulling doubles at work, no days off to support my family and I feel like giving up I think of you lately dude. Your an American hero my bro. You don't quit and I admire that. Peace.
Heads up mate. There will be better times. Try to take care of yourself. Much love
I don't want this series to end. I hope you do more content like this in the future. Just you, the skateboard and the road.
I have secretly wanted him to get to Virginia beach, and then just turn around and head back, forrest gump style! Lol.
I can not believe that 100k+ folks aren't check this out daily.... Keep up the work, thanks for sharing video
Hell yeah, skate or die! 🎉 from turlock ca
I can't believe you are actually skating across America you really doing it...like as a Skater myself this is awesome to witness. Much respect brother!
Chad is going to be able to dunk like Michael Jordan when this is over.
That last bit had me cringing with how close the cars were getting and then swerving. Stay safe and keep rolling!
Motion is lotion as far as pain is concerned! Keep pushing Chad! This is so inspirational man. I rode my bike 6 miles in the rain with my son instead of using the rain as an excuse to sit on the couch all thanks to you Chad!
I agree with that dude, moving to America from California definitely takes some getting used to hahaha!
I’ve been following you for years and stoked you’re doing this. I’ve been skating 2 miles to work everyday now because of you. I’m 53
thank you chad. ill keep it short but watching your vids in the morning is helping me find motivation during a tough time im just trying to get past.
Stay up! It'll get better one day. This YT rando promises it.
I'm not sure I identify with you more, or less, because of my own issues with addiction, but I think your honest humanity comes across in the same way to most of us, genuine, humbling, and inspiring. I swear I'm going to remember 2023 as the year Chad skated across America till I die, and I bet I am not alone in the slightest. Also.."hopefully it's chocolate" LOL :)
Morning guys! Aight, it is day number 607! Pretty intense wind this morning as we have a blizzard crossing the Bering Strait! Coming to the tail end of our trip though and I could not be more stoked!
Clicked on a random video, I remember watching these every day at lunch a year ago haha
You made me pick up a skateboard so thank you!!
have fun man
This inspires me to push harder on everything in my life - thanks for the stoke, Chad!
Dude,what an adventure! I am 46 and still skateboard. Big love to all the people who recognized you along the way and to everybody enjoying skateboarding. Take good care of yourself,Chad🤘
“Just gotta cruise through Tennessee, Appalachian’s & Virginia” 😂 holy shit man. I didn’t think you’d make it this far. Absolute madlad.
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!
Thanks for your inspiration you are truly a trailblazer
That's great about your knee, and I think really good to hear for all of us skaters out there full of injuries, that perhaps strengthening won't make things worse but infact better
This journey helped me realize my problem with smoking habits and I’m now two weeks sober. Weed may not seem like much to most people but this is a huge step for me so thank you Chad you’re awesome
I'm trying to stay sober from weed too so I feel you. Kinda gets irritating how people play it off as not being something you can be addicted to. We got this man!
@@ijustlike0010 definitely gets irritating but those who have been there always understand. Much love we got this!
You go brother!
😊
No Gor- Tex, Merino wool or Patagucci rain gear needed. Dude is inspiring
Not even a rain coat or poncho
I've been watching since say 1. Definitely been an inspiration to get sober for myself. I'm definitely starting with buying a board to keep myself busy. Thanx Chad.
I am proud to say, I Quit smoking the day/week you started this journey. I tried your no smokes and caffeine. Needed my coffee but after 35 years. I can say Thanks to you I AM CIGARETTE FREE. Such an inspiration and life changer. For real I didnt think I could kick that habit. Thank you.
The cows mean muggin you and following you along fences have been hilarious. Its awesome how mind clearing this has been for you, I think a lot of viewers get some of that thru screen osmosis. Badass man!
It was a pleasure meeting you yesterday
I was literally rubbing my stiff knee watching this... I just had surgery on April 22 and Went skating yesterday (5-12-23) for the first time in over a year and it felt great! 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 Dude.
Any updates? How’s the knee? I had ACL surgery a year ago
Whoa, I think you need some high vis, in the tree shadows you must be almost invisible to the cars until the last minute.
Dude you’re such a legend. I’m 19 and I skate every day. I couldn’t imagine skating for more than and hour without a break. You’re superhuman
It's wild how quickly your body adjusts when it has too.
Go wild 😊
Just binged all episodes, now I'm up to date! Keep it up, greetings from Sweden!
you put a smile on my face before i go to work everyday! Thank you for everything you've shared and learned on your journey, helped me out tons with my mindset.
When you were in Little Rock I enjoyed my ninth anniversary without booze. It took a lot of help from old timers (many named Bill) and others like yourself. I especially love hat you barely mention it, we learn from how you handle your affairs. Peace and yo.
this is an insane journey i am witnessing. cannot believe you’re doing 50/60+ miles a day. that’s incredible.
I don’t watch tv at all and watch this daily sooo - I’m gonna need something to watch when this is over 😂
Man be careful. Your going into deliverance territory. If you hear banjo's...run Chad!
Legendary inspiring attitude youve had through the whole push. This has changed my point of view , thank you .
Incredible journey my dude. Do us a favor and show us some more love with your morning and evening routine : ) Like a “full day in the life” kinda feel as you tackle the day/miles. Remember how awesome those were in 411? Sending high vibes from Phoenix.
You're like a nomad traversing over the Siberian steppe. Your knees get stronger. Because they have to! Praise the gods!
thats crazy how your knee is improving, i feel like ive been having the same issue with my right knee feeling weak after 25 odd years of skating, but just recently i got a bike and im trying to put in the miles to help improve my knee strength,
Dude skating in his Charles Spurgeon shirt 🤣 LOVE IT! Love all these videos!
I struggle with sobriety and skating has always helped your awesome and inspiring bless up and fun travels
Congrats men I just started skating this year, I have horrible roads in Mexico City so seeing you push in shitty pavement in Texas was so motivating and remind me r that I just complain that much and embrace it . Thank you!
Skating with no or next to no shoulder on the roads is hectic! Enjoying the journey from Brisbane Australia. Keep Pushing ✌️
Some great cow conversations in this one 🙏🏼
You have made it sooo far!!! Absolutely amazing! Keep pushing, VA beach is just up ahead!!!
I came onto the trip around day 25 and you are such an inspiration this is so sick to witness I look forward to the uploads every day youre sick I hope nothin but safe travels
I haven’t skated in a few years but this past weekend I went out and just cruised on a road for about a mile or 2 and then back, wind was going against me until I turned and went back, man that was a work out on the legs! Couldn’t imagine doing such a big trip!
Maybe a few years back I could but man I am just not conditioned anymore
Keep pushing bro it's great thing that we live in a world where its relatively easy to document what your doing.
MASSIVE Achievement so far dude.
Good luck.
Deep Hack squats at the gym keep my knees strong, if I stop for awhile I notice it on stairs sometimes too
Killer to see you showing life after alcohol. That's a hard thing to visualize when you're in it. Kickass man!🤘
Always perfect timing for my lunch break ❤
Good PUSH.
At 46 I feel better the more I keep moving. Can't stop, won't 🛑.
You're killing it Chad. So fun and entertaining to watch.
Keep up the energy. You will never forget this time. Respect
Dude those cars at the end flying past on that two lane road! I was fully leaning over to the left watching that.
Skate rat from the 80's. Dude your awesome. Been watching every day.
I left the USA for Mexico in 2018 and it’s been a very positive experience. The last 5 years up in the states has been a little wild and it often saddens me to see the country I loved kinda falling apart. But watching this journey reminds me that so much media bullshit is out there, and at the end of the day when you’re down to American to American interaction… it’s all love ❤️. Thanks Chad for reminding me of the great part of the USA… the people ✌🏽 from 🇲🇽 🏄🏼
Roll Call.
Hawai'i in the house.
Looking forward to seeing you complete you journey.
Thank u for all u do. ❤
Im hyped about those busted ass wheels still going!!!! I hope they make it all the way.
I've been watching your vids for years.Burnsider for decades, I'm 61.Mostly your tutorials I've been on a roller coaster of injuries for 4 years,3 on a clavicle 1 broken femur ,6 surgeries. I've been considering start a non profit to build a skatepark on my reservation & provide boards for native & low income kids & I WAS going to copy you,yes straight up copy you, by skating across Montana to raise $ & profile but broke my left heel @ Burnside (1st time in 3 years) yesterday so I might be done w/ skating period. Keep it up, you are an inspiration for many. Ive missed a couple of your episodes but I'll be watching them daily now. To quote an old guy band to you, REO Speedwagon, Keep pushing!
Man, that last bit of road looked super sketchy. Be safe, praying for traveling mercies for you.
You are smashing it 🤙🏼
Keep on pushing another epic day!!!!!!
You’re awesome brother!
You need a T-shirt of you and a cow whith your catchphrase yo what’s up I would so definitely buy one

The cars is gnar. Check out monster gap behind you while your filming your wrap.
