killed it! looks buttery!! I don't even skate much anymore but I still find myself working on new ledges just because I like coming back and seeing that people have skated it haha
Greetings from France 🇫🇷 You're a really good skater. I haven't skateboarded since I was 18, over 30 years ago. Your videos reignite the desire to get back into it. But at a certain age, there's a good chance of skating alone. Take care of yourself and your skateboard, and keep up the great work.
Older skater here just back into it. Relearning to fall properly was necessary... things hurt quite a bit more after 40... but i was surprised at how much pure joy i derived from skating. Passion.. ya know? Good luck to you
Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪 I'm 46 and restarted 3 years ago after 23 years of not skating. It's all possible. Just give it a try. I'm having a blast skateboarding again 😉
Yo whatsup! Greetings from the US! Glad to help hope you up again but yeah you definitely gotta get used to solo sessions when you’re older. You can always go to a skatepark but sometimes skating alone is better
It wasn't until after I discovered your videos did I get back into skateboarding, I'm a fairly new dad and 37 years old , thanks for being that unannounced motivation I needed 🤘. Also have my little dude who's a little over 2 into skating .
Good on you, man! Keep at it. As with raising a child, it has its phases of reward and difficulty. It will be great for your mental and physical health too. 👊
I be tired af man lol. Between kids and work and everything that life requires I gotta slam red bulls to have a decent session. I should probably get better sleep but…yeah.
Brush on sealer or clear coat is the way to go. Been using water based polyurethane and it works great and dries fast especially if there is a light breeze.
Sick video! Your willingness to go find and fix spots is really inspiring. I'm from East Coast Canada and our parking lots and curbs are SO crusty due to the harsh winters, so nice curbs are hard to find. Stay radical dude!
Got a little bruising but I think it should be ok in a couple days. It’s actually a re-injury too. Fell weird about a year ago and kinda did the same thing. It’s never fully recovered but the pain is manageable. But thank you, man!
That’s my kinda spot bro, buttery as hell. Inspired me to go get some lacquer to Dress up some curbs at the abandoned movie theatre parking lot I skate,even tho i feel like a criminal while doing it in my older age 🤣 fuck it
that's funny, i know another guy who made a mission last night to do just this. he doesn't have a rub brick though, so he used a small paver. worked well enough. still has to go back to clear coat and wax. idk that i would record and post it though 😆
Awesome video, brotha. I'm 36 and still try to go out at least once or twice a week when I have time. Did the same thing to a local ledge at a middle school near me: rub brick, lacquer, then wax. Gotta love skating at our age! The fun and stoke is still there, you just gotta work for it ✌🏻
I just started skating again after a 10+ year hiatus, now in my early 30s. Your video has totally inspired me to get to work on some prima curbs/ledges!
Bigup to SAD that dude is a legend. I heard he still rips too, they just talked about him on the nine club. I have to use the rag because I sweat like a donkey so it’s a must on every session. Looks kinda cool too but I get self conscious about people thinking I’m using it for flare like I’m Peter smolik or something lol
I'm watching you from France, and i fucking rolled my toes exactly the same way..! Fuck it's so long to recover... ( I'm 43 and so happy to see that i'm not the only one who is suffering from skateboarding!! ) Love you're videos !!
Yo peace to France! We all get beat up every now and again. Just try to keep it mellow when you’re injured, I should take my own advice though. It’s really hard to not skate even if it hurts
@@memorysometimers3067 dude I think at any age you can’t be going out in 100+ heat and skating for more than a little while. It’s been getting to 110 consistently where I live the last few years. Shit ain’t cool man.
I hope one day soon I can get a board I just can’t afford it right now. I haven’t skated in 20 years and I want to start back really bad. Thanks for the videos you are inspiring
Both those sealers are a solid choice. That tall boy will coat a whole curb top & front in one pass. But the brush on attracts less attention I think. I like the Behr Low Luster version, it's even more low key. After it dries ( I do like 3-4 coats) it hardly looks different than the raw curb. You can even use a $10 garden sprayer, then it just looks like you're watering the plants or killing weeds! Add SteelStick or similar for the expansion joints, and you've got 100 feet of continuous curb!
$20 for this can was kinda steep too, although I have about 1/3rd of it left after making two spots skatable so idk, I really love how fast it goes on.
@@dadboard yeah, I usually go a few coats, so the can goes quick if you’re starting a curb. That Behr Brush-on is a muuuuch better value for first coats! Then you can come back with cans for touch up after a while when things aren’t sliding as well.
Ill say this, it might not always be your best work but some skater is going to stumble on it eventually and they’ll just be happy to have a nice broken in spot to skate
I got a new complete yesterday... creature 8.6 w some big ass trucks thunder lights... and the Canadian wildfires got Cleveland more smokey and shittier than usual to breathe. Ughh ur next vid going to have the new egg board?
Is there an update on this project? I’m starting work on a curb with, it appears, the same kind of concrete. I’m curious if the curb ended up chipping or if it held up. Thanks!
Kind of a lame question…what grit is your rub brick tool? Or, perhaps a better question, what grit would you *recommend* for doing exactly this kind of ledge cleanup? (I’ve seen 20 grit and 60 grit in my searching so far. Is one or the other preferable for making your ledges more… buttery?) As always, I greatly appreciate your videos. Thank you so much for what you do!
@@dadboard Thank you for responding 🙏🏼 Just picked up a rub brick and some clear coat. Now I just need to keep my eyes peeled for a nice long, isolated ledge to butter up…before making it a moot point as I utterly fail at every trick I attempt. Lol 🧈🧱🛹🤕 I say it every video, but dang you make great content. This is another excellent episode and i appreciate you putting all the time and effort into your work. Thank you for making skateboarding *fun*. Even the tedious, frustrating, and painful parts which you imbue with wit and humor. Such. Good. Stuff. I hope the toe and wrist are healing quickly. Cheers 🍻
@@simpleprofundity man thank you so much. That’s maybe the nicest comment I’ve gotten. Keep your eyes open for that spot, man. I spend a lot of time driving around behind shopping centers and such. The hunt is it’s own fun
i never knew the proper curb waxing procedure. I always just rubbed a curb with wax and skated until it would slide. It never worked well. I'm going to try this tanks!
They weren’t lying about that cheap concrete chipping away. I spent a week prepping a curb spot I could skate at work and it started cracking after a few grinds. They use some type of rock filler.
They’ve also developed some slide proof red paint for curbs too. I prepped a curb a while back and no matter how much wax I put on it it just doesn’t want to slide well. Super wack
I've been slowly turning a local Target into a curb spot, but man the shitty concrete they're using now truly sucks, some of it got chunked by snowplows over the winter and there's literal rocks in there lmao. I just have a "no ollies" rule for the low curbs, but even slappies are chunking it up.
greetings from italy ! we wish we had this type of ledge but with some rub brick tool we can make it skateable our type of ledges are concrete almost dryed and compacted roughly with many pores , they eat out ours trucks
Whattup! Your country has so much more history and old architecture I’m sure you got some unique stuff to skate though. Any marble in your area? We don’t get much of that over here
Those toe rolls are the worst but sick ledge you have going there, there's one like that kiddy corner to my house. And I'm glad it's not just me taking stupid falls on all of the parking lot over some dumb shit. One day it will be longest of all ledges, I can see it now.
Gotta pay to play my brother.... gotta keep waxing and extending that spot till u get it all.... by the way thats a pimp move of f it still gonna make a curb skateable during the day....
ALso if you grab a can of lacquer and a roller instead of a spray can its way less suspicious and it almost works better because you can lay down a thicker coat much faster.
oh man commented before i saw your store run attempt! def get a smaller can of lacquer tho it wont be called " wet look" concrete sealer or whatever just plain lacquer over by the wood sealer section.
Here to ask some advice with dealing with people. So there’s this curb at a skatepark that I wanna start, but the problem is that this skate park’s near a soccer stadium, and in the evening there’s a lot of people who can potentially give me crap, so what can I say as an excuse for doing what I do? Would be really thankful if you answer
Is it like in front of the skatepark or closer to the soccer area? If there’s heavy foot or car traffic near the curb you’re eyeing that may cause more problems than it’s worth. Or are you just worried about some people seeing you prep the curb?
@@dadboard in front of the skatepark. I actually tried to rub brick that thing and thankfully no one cared, but I didn’t lacquer coat it yet, and I want to ask you how do I explain myself spray painting a curb to a curious passer-by? Thanks for answering btw
@@dimavlasiuk4220 oh well if it’s near the skatepark it should be waxed up by default! If anyone says anything ignore them or if they really press you, just be polite and dismissive and if it’s a big thing just come back and finish it later. If I were you I’d go early and instead of spray on laquor go for some roll on concrete sealer with a glossy finish. Be careful not to overdo it because that shit is slippery as fuck so someone could potentially slip just walking over it, maybe grab a couple parking cones and some caution tape and leave that around the spot while it dries so nobody skates it too early or dies trying to walk up the curb
@@dadboard lol your really relatable to me , I really miss the days when me And the lads would go skate and whinge how much it sucked to be young and not have transport or money - fuck we had it so good back then and we didn’t even realise I really miss those days and the lads Life was very cruel to some of the crew and so much potential wasted , I sometimes feel guilty for being the one who left the streets for the rich married life ……….holy fuck I think I’m going through a midlife crisis I’m thinking wayy too much
@@MR.PRESIDENTOFFICIAL the best midlife crisis is one that involves skateboarding! I feel you though, I’m not rich but I definitely lucked out and have a wonderful family and a very fulfilling life while others I grew up with didn’t fare so well. Cheers to making through!
Easier if they're available, but since when has skateboarding been about easy mode? Personally I have almost as much fun cleaning up and prepping a spot as I do skating it. Also I know he's on the west coast where a nice red painted curb is standard, but I'm in the northeast and wll we have is raw concrete or yellow curbs that are 90% chunked up.
@@ChipSuey207 my suggestion is super markets because they all have fire lanes and painted curbs usually in the front and sometimes they go the whole length of the store so if you go at the end and start waxing it your less likely to get kicked out also in my 20 years of skateboarding i just tried deck rails for the first time and i feel dumb for not using them before there so much fun
Little bit of bruising and it’s sore when I move it a certain way but should be ok. I appreciate it, man! Just need to rest it up a couple days and get some CBD on it
Spots tight man. Nice job👍 Height is good too Scoop a little out the other side for “slides” Yea that fall was sketchy..Godspeed ❤️🩹 (Im sidelined myself)
Fuck, man heal up soon! The height is pretty perfect for a ledge imo. I actually want to keep the bark and dirt there because I’m super sketched out on double sided curbs/ledges and flat bars. I know it’s mental but I must have PTSD from a fall when I was a kid or something.
Trying to not look sketchy, act normal, hold a skateboard as a decoy, then POST it to youtube :) Ledge looks awesome, and at least you’re trying to be respectful!
Dude, you’ve got me pondering going to get a board. It’s been probably 20 years for me…
Do iiiit
you get that board yet?
It’d be rude not to
Do it, you won’t regret it. I took a 20 year break, got back on the board and loving it!
Do it! As an older dude I couldn't reccomend softer wheels (dragons are sick) and a wide board enough
You should drop an orange cone when prepping spots to skate. Makes it look like you are supposed to be there and no one ever questions it.
That’s actually a great idea
Making the whole world a skate spot!
killed it! looks buttery!! I don't even skate much anymore but I still find myself working on new ledges just because I like coming back and seeing that people have skated it haha
Mad respect 🫡
Damn you had my attention when you pulled out the concrete sealer. Truly a convergence of dad and skater
🫡
Dude that spot looks buttery!! Was trying to make a long curb spot today and went through 2 cans of lacquer, gonna have to look for that big can!!!!
Yeah the spot is really nice. Can’t wait to go back and extend the ledge out!

Thanks dude!
Good session man, happy Sunday! dat 360 flip fall though.... when your leg bends like that 😬
I know right. First one of the night too. I should probably warm up with those before just flinging one out and committing first try lol

Dope af. Canned lacquer and golf wax. Got it.
I think it’s gulf wax. You can get a 3 pack for like $5 in most grocery stores. Usually by where they keep the jars and stuff to make your own pickles
That cab flip was so good!
Thanks dude! Appreciate you watching!

Super solid ass varial flip!

To make the ledge longer use ARDEX !! Fills those separation joints perfect and somewhat matches the Color of concrete. Bondo is garbage. 👌
I’m using an epoxy resin stick. Found a cheaper version of the JB weld at a small hardware store so I’m stocking up on those

i never knew the proper curb waxing procedure. I always just rubbed a curb with wax and skated until it would slide. It never worked well. I'm going to try this tanks!
Yeah, way better if you clear coat it first. then the wax sits on top instead of soaking in.

Little bit of bruising and it’s sore when I move it a certain way but should be ok. I appreciate it, man! Just need to rest it up a couple days and get some CBD on it
Spots tight man. Nice job👍 Height is good too
Scoop a little out the other side for “slides”
Yea that fall was sketchy..Godspeed ❤️🩹
(Im sidelined myself)
Fuck, man heal up soon! The height is pretty perfect for a ledge imo. I actually want to keep the bark and dirt there because I’m super sketched out on double sided curbs/ledges and flat bars. I know it’s mental but I must have PTSD from a fall when I was a kid or something.
Lol, I hear you man..Thanks will do. Prob whole summer now since i reinjured. Soo..I’ll be peepin your shiznit among other things Yo..👊
@@robertchase8504 what did you injure?
Trying to not look sketchy, act normal, hold a skateboard as a decoy, then POST it to youtube :)
Ledge looks awesome, and at least you’re trying to be respectful!
