Great video and overview of The Boneyard. I’m the (now former) Councilmember that pushed to get this over the finish line. A few details: cost was $2 million for the skatepark, the overall redo of Rick Oden Park is about $20 million.
The original price allocation from the 2004 bond election was about $450,000. The facility had no “home” and no one pushing for it, so it kept getting put off and a number of folks just wanted to kill it. There was no design work being done in the interim. I advocated for the skatepark to come to Rick Oden Park and be the centerpiece of a redevelopment of the park.
A public meeting was held in April 2019; we had about 100 skaters show up and give their input. That was much better attendance than expected and is what gave supporters on the Council the leverage to get this built and go much bigger than the original cost allocation. It’s going to be a spectacular park and worth every penny.
Thanks for contributing to the build of this sweet park!
Wow! Amazing to hear what can happen when people actually show up. Thanks for advocating for this! Skateboarding is such a beautiful sport/art for kids and adults to put their energy into.
Thanks for everything you did, Rich. D5 misses you lol
Based dude
you can come help rockwall out if you please will lol!
i love the concept you did of this video where you explained what was happening at your studio instead of live at the park. the quality on this one was amazing, john. keep up the great work. you’ll be way past 1 million soon; i just know it.
you deserve more than 1 mil with this quality of a vid. this is like mr beast level editing and camera angles. sick dude!
John I’ve recently came back to your videos and been inspired to start skating again! Thank you
Same
The work you put into your videos is incredible
Be nice if he put a little more effort into the description so I don't have to play everything by ear and google the wrong name.
What a burst of nostalgia. I used to watch John when I was 16 or 17 and took up skating as a hobby. I dropped it pretty quickly as I discovered it wasn't for me and found more interest and passion in photography.
All these years later, at the age of 23, I see John's face in a UA-cam comment and think to myself "where do I know this guy from?"
So cool to see you're still doing your thing! I hope you grow and grow and keep on enjoying success!!!
Haven’t skated in like 10 years. But I found your channel back in 2020 and now it’s one of my favorites. Awesome content bro!
Not first but HELL YAH EARLY I LOVE YOUR VIDEO
Same
I'd love to see a video where you go back to this park and do at least one trick in EVERY SINGLE obstacle. Loved the video btw. Love how you match the music to your skating!
Really liked the format and narrative to this video. The park looks rad and will be awesome for the community.
You are crushing the videos lately Sir. Your motivation level is inspiring. No BS. Stay Rad.
This park is the reason I just started skating again after 19 years. I'm 44 now and just started again last week. I rode the Allen park a few times on a BMX about 11 years ago (and it was an awesome park), so when I realize my hometown has now built a bigger and more comprehensive one it just blows my mind. Back in the day we had to pay crazy money to skate private parks that were sometimes 1/3 of the size of this park. Jeff Phillips Skatepark, Eisenberg's, and the one in Kennedale (Freestyle, I think?) were the major places in the area.
I remember that Vegas (my 2nd hometown) started building numerous public skateparks around the turn of the millennium, and I can't believe it took Garland over two decades to catch up. There's always been a strong skate scene in Garland dating back to the 80's and 90's.
Video wel don! Loved the style of editing! Can’t wait for this park to open!
Thanks for the shout out, dude. You did an amazing job showing everyone around the new park and editing this video together. I can’t wait to finally skate this once it’s open! Let’s also get a sesh in soon! 🤘🛹❤️
Drone shots, multiple talking head angles, better voice audio, cinematic slow motion. What's happening here?! I love it!
10 mil is insane
yoo can't wait for it to be finished, I used to live near where it's being built. looks fun, and keep up the good work! 🔥
love you bro you are my mentor and made me want to learn! Congrats on 1mill and love the vids
The music editing with the video together is soo insanely good to watch every time
This park is amazing! Its good to see kids playing outside again and socializing.
Some of those kids have nothing else in the world.
This edit was amazing! First off, I love the Floral Kyle Walker 2’s and bought two pairs ( one to rock, one to stock ) and got super hyped because I’ve never seen anyone skating them! 2nd, we’re currently advocating and about to break ground the end of this year for our #springvalleyskatepark here in San Diego, Ca. That’s a creative way you’re advocating. The editing style reminds me of a young TY Evans, and you’re filming and skating! Very inspiring Man, hope you check our park out once it’s done!
W video bro ong my favorite skate UA-camr fs💪🏻💯
Let’s go John Hill ! 🤙🤙🤙
Can’t wait. Great overview. It looks incredible
John you are the best !! You inspire me to skate every day 💯💯
this park looks so damn fun, also I LOVE the slomo shots, I really prefer the way you shot this video over the go-pro way. The go-pro shots make me dizzy
Hey John although im not always up to date to your videos i find myself always coming back and loving them! Would love to see an update on your Manga journey as well. Keep up the good work

You upped the videography on this one and it was totally worth it! Drone shots were awesome!
Freaking amazing I love the slo mo and the quality
love the videos you inspired me to start skateing
I don’t even skate anymore but I love Johns content and personality
What a sweet spot! I haven't skated in ages but this place makes me want to give it a try again, or at least take my bike over to try it out haha. Thanks for the beta on the new park, looking forward to it opening!
Love these types of videos keep going John 😄👍
I went skating for the first time in 35 years the other day. I went at 5 am to avoid other people. The temporary fence was down and I had joyful skating for 3 hours until the skate park builders turned up and aggressively kicked me out. Wait 35 years and still getting kicked out of places 🙃
Haha gotta live in the moment and keep pushin 🤘
John, Your productions keep killing it!
I LOOOOVE YOUR VIDS plsss keep it up!🤙🤙❤❤
That fit is Clean. Props
The drone shots add so much to the video!!
God damn this is a full documentary!! Insane production and editing!
Love your videos! 😎 me and my brother are making a mini Road-trip to dallas to skate in September! Your videos largely inspired the idea. Can’t wait! 😎
Wow amazing video John, great job.
Quality is actually insane recently
Great video man, inspiring quality, content, and presentation!
Hah, you showed the “plan view”! That’s the frisco park, always makes me laugh
john your filming and editing were on point Sir!! 👏👏👏👏👏
Great job with those drone shots it really made the video more cooler
Hey John, love the new style of filming and making videos! Keep up the good work!
Yes! I just skated this a couple weeks ago. Very fun park.
Killing it with drone shots
I appreciate that you align the edits so that you land right as the snare hits. Lol satisfies the ocd
One of the sickest skateparks ever. I hope I get to visit this place one day 🔥🔥🔥🤙🏻
That park looks fun as hell! Keep jumping fences til the cops come 😂 sick video 🔥🛹
This is so sick
the editing of this video 🔥
I love seeing all of the manga in the back of your videos.

i’m a okc skater n i go to dfw for work often and i make a lil skate trip out of it, i’ll be there ina couple days i appreciate it !!! park looks too dope
Love you john
It's cool how the workers left you and others alone.
It's not cool how the park has already been tagged. But I'm not bent out of shape over it.
I can't wait for it to open!
Can't believe he's at 1M already, been here since 10k 🙏
Don’t stop selling the rails !!!! You have the perfect rails I just need to save up
HUGE!
shout out to the people who fought to build this for the youth them!
finally someone who builds a real skatepark for the kids instead of that prefab concrete bs that no one wants to skate
it looks beautiful
These drone shots 😩😩😩
I skated here in December after seeing it in one of your videos, super fun park.
These bois could be beasts. It’s not just skill but uniqueness. It stands out against cookie cutter talent.
Tha Best In Dfw
Your are the best skateboarder I’ve ever seen
I miss the NC crew, and i hope to see you do something with filmers soon. Even if you bring sarah to film and banter it would be cool to have it switched up from the tripod clips for once.
Wow. This looks to me like the perfect skate park.
The beginner section is way better than most of skateparks in my country 😂
Skating A $10 Million Dollar Mega Skatepark By Myself meanwhile the other kid at the park 2:00
I grew up right down the Street from this park if this was around 15 years ago I feel like I would’ve went pro lol. At least that’s my excuse lol
Your awesome 👍🏽, I'm 43 and I'm almost standing my Ollie's. But once again it's raining cats and dogs at my place, Frankfurt Germany..😐
I just wanted to say, I love your channel and just stay the way you are 😎🛹
God bless you
Oh and by the way, this skatepark is a dream !
wow i wish i had a park like that its bigger then our three parks put together
Our parks in Australia are like little tributes to these megaparks. A lot of it's familiar, just not all in one place or on such a scale - though Belconnen in Canberra takes a crack.
Damn John are you filming the next Girl video or something? That slow-mo is siiiiiiiiick
New video style I like it
i live in virginia beach, and we just got this new park opened up last year called woodstock skatepark. would love to see you check it out if you ever pass by its crazy
This Park is Like at least 200 times bigger than my local Park
This is in my city!!!!!!! Omg I didn’t know about it until today0-0
I wish South Carolina had something like this
Yea man forreal
Hope you love this video dude, I certainly did!
