I love the little kid on the bike posted up just enjoying a gravette session at a park he’s probably never seen anyone who wasn’t involved in illicit activity at. Respect.
The kid on the bike was surprised anybody would skate at his SHITY SKATE PARK. There was a sign at park said CAUTION: "IF YOU SKATE HERE YOU ARE A SHITY SKATER".
Bro I grew up skating this park, this is my hometown. And you did stuff no one would even IMAGINE doing. The video isn’t even close to portraying how bad this park is.
My buddy grew up in Molala. Basically he told me that their used to be rails in the park, but he went to the city council got approved to remove them himself because the city wasn’t willing to use any of their money to fix the skate park. And he cut the rails out with a circular saw.
@JGD sht I just jump the fence and sk8 from 7-9am (mines open at 10-8pm) then u can go back after if you like to stay up all night. They charge 20$ and need a mofo helmet and padding.
It's sad because you know at SOME point in history, this was an exciting new addition to the community. That's what I think of every time I see a shitty park. But after years of zero budget and maintenance, it just turns into a sad state of affairs. I grew up in Villa Park, IL. Hopefully someday this town gets another shot, like we did.
Please do another episode! haha! There are terrible parks EVERYWHERE!!! I have always wondered what it would be like for a pro to skate one of these terrible parks. You honestly killed it David! Keep Cruising Bro!
@@recession81 true that and that looks like that shitty cement they used in the 80s made for wierd rough cement it's like the curbs before u scrape to sand smoot.
There used to be a town/almost city built outdoor park 30 mins from my house in a place called Strathmore Alberta. Covered in snow and puddles for half the year it was made entirely out of sort of veneer covered wood...and not just any wood...mostly particle board lol...soggy as all hell, missing rotted out pieces, edges between wood that didnt line up with snaggle tooth gaps, etc and filled with undesirable kids and the local wino population just hanging out and not even riding. Still we shredded that park like a piranhas on goldfish.
i stopped at this park once bc i happened to be driving by. I got out did one ollie and said “fuck this park” out loud and proceeded to drive back to portland.
@@jamalydude there's some really incredible parks in Oregon. Plus it's a small state so you can get to a lot of them easily if you're on a skate trip. There's a ton of parks in California but it would be impossible to hit them all up in a short amount of time.
I've been thinking about trying some softer wheels. Been riding 99a to 101a to 103B for 20 years. Can't seem to find any in the 90 to 92 range in the sizes I ride. 53 to 54mm. I've been riding Bones, DialTone, Wayward, SML and Crupie's
@Roger Dodger You generally want to use hard wheels so you can slide the board a bit on the ground though. If you tried a bluntslide on a ledge with 84 durometer wheels your board would stick immediately
I used to live near here and my Dad would take me here as a kid cause it was the only park around. Knocked the wind out of myself for the first time at this park. Don't miss it..
Exactly. Back in the 80s there were no parks really. In Houston there was one but you had to pay for it. We were stuck with home made ramps. These kids have no idea how good they got it.
I’ve seen worst one in Brazil, this one looks a dream comparing to the one was build in Guarujá/SP. The park was so awful that after they build no one could skate due the quantity of obstacle close of each other. That was a frustration when we were kids back there!
Dude hooked my homie up with a new deck, Gravs a beast!

You can’t blame bronson for giving what people ask for haha, probably not listening to the best people’s advices
hey thats me. again many thanks david
If you filmed a part here it should still count as street.
Yeah looks more like a ditch spot then a skate park
@@crazybiscut Thats exactly what I thought to
Sewer park mixed with Chernobyl
Shut gnarlier bthan street lol
Jason Coughenour I like the added one word sentence at the bottom that just says "Gay," very creative insult.
“Slower than a hippie in a hemp farm” idk why I’ve only just now heard this idiom but imma use it all the time now lmao
same
This looks like one of the stupid parks I’d build in tony hawk pro skater 2 lol
You were wildly underutilizing those building tools my guy
Your pfp matches your comment so well
Just needs more pungee pits of spikes :D
@@whochairs nostalgic, wheres my lava pit?
Was just gonna say this. Lol
My local skatepark is so bad, The local council removed the grind rail cause people were using it as a bench.

Hell yeah
Joey brezinski has a similar series on redbulls UA-cam. Just a random FYI.
@@RandyTwang yeah but it's nowhere near as entertaining lol plus Joey's series goes to random parks not really focused mainly on the shit ones.
@@RandyTwang i wanna watch David tho
@@Turtleboykid yeah true, it does get a bit repetitive. Still fun to watch and there are few shitty parks in the series and joey has some funny commentary sometimes. But yeah a gravtte series would be fucking sick.

Something ain't right"
Lmao
Fr I live in this town and half of the rodes are smooth and the half have giant potholes in the ground

@@loganchild6771 you mean Meth dealer.

The ground sounds like airplanes taking off lmao.. Gravette is still a beast and killed it

Dave: gets multiple actually fire lines
Me: WTF
That ground looks so crusty.
Literally a cheese grater....
Moisturizer helps
@@Finallybianca you aren't funny
@@HD9Snegative Nancy over here damn
I must admit I am impressed how he threw it down. As well as made it humorous. Garvette can skate anything and make it like another day of shredding.
You know a skatepark is questionable when it's free, it's a sunny day and it's totally empty.
@The TacomaKid all the local parks in my area are free
You mean free from people,or free to skate?
The TacomaKid hey,I just figured I’d ask because weather is costs to skate is irrelevant to how good the park is lol.
@JGD sht I just jump the fence and sk8 from 7-9am (mines open at 10-8pm) then u can go back after if you like to stay up all night. They charge 20$ and need a mofo helmet and padding.
Skating is becoming less popular thats a fact
Wow must be nice to have a skatepark at all. Closest skatepark we have is 40 minutes away. Appreciate this for what it is
“the hells a feller to do here”
Hey, its me
LMAO 😂
The best part
That was the funniest shit

We need more of these worst skatepark ever videos! gravette is hilarious, entertaining, creative and super good at skating
The toll it would take tho.
Shame this isn't a series. It was in my recommended vids, and I thought it was a series.
He’s got a good comic delivery
"This park is slower than a hippie at a hemp park!"🤣🤣🤣
"you'll be able to buy meth nearby" lmao
He's not wrong tbh
Ever been to mollala? It's scary accurate.
@@joshbarth9469 you ever been to chowchilla, everyone will offer you meth or heroin
DVX Hambone I mean it’s Oregon so yeah
A city that won't spend money on skateparks pays for meth instead.
Please do another episode! haha! There are terrible parks EVERYWHERE!!! I have always wondered what it would be like for a pro to skate one of these terrible parks. You honestly killed it David! Keep Cruising Bro!
The most fun looking thing in that park is the parking curb.
I was just thinking the same thing
@@tommartin3697 😂
They aren't even painted either haha
You can see and hear threw the camera how rough this park is, any kid who practiced here on a basis will probably cake walk a nicely built park!!
"park is slower than a hippy at a hemp farm"
Rob Thys 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
he was probably skating bronson bearings
@@tribesshift It has nothing to do with the bearings, hard wheels on that rough pavement will never make it easy to get speed
@@recession81 true that and that looks like that shitty cement they used in the 80s made for wierd rough cement it's like the curbs before u scrape to sand smoot.
@@recession81 idk man I'm east coast here and we get rough shit all the time and its nothing. Just skate 56-58mm (even for street) and ride ceramics.
Son: mum, can we go to the skate park?
Mum: No son we have skatepark at home.
Skatepark at home:
JordanLemonsorbet I’d be jealous if you had this at your home... kinda
I love these videos with Gravette, keep them coming!!
Sounds like the kinda ground that will make your feet tingle after skating on it too long.
👇🏻👇🏻Who been there👇🏻👇🏻
Flatland Sounds I felt thia
True 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Same wit yo mamas knees
I hate that feeling
ive never felt that and I skate some really ugly street 24/7. Alot of my friends say they felt it on those surfaces tho
I like how he's just there by himself screaming the whole time
Nice Belle Delphine imitation lol
I unfortunately have also made the mistake of stopping there on a road trip. Online reviews and pictures are misleading.
Multiple WOW moments in this video. Makes me want to get back into skating.
I can already see me doing a no handed faceplant trying to disaster on that steep ass quarter.
You have my vote for
Grav’s Sk8’s the worst parks in America!
I’ll tune in for sure 👌🏼
Imagine that eyesore over the road from your house.
Nah dude remember, your house is where the meth is being bought at.
Uhm... The house up the road from me is where you can buy meth....
And we don't even have a local park : (
That'd be dope to have some skateable flatground across from your house tho.
@ As I understood, it's not flat though :P Better to skate on the road.
@@TheBlakus420 you must live in west virginia
That's my dream skate park. Completely empty.
That's cuz its in the hickiest part of oregon. They had a decent bmx track there too a few years ago but tore it down.
Just go early or late! I feel like peak is always around 6
Lol “send help to the kids here”...”send help”
This series is like the complete opposite of Joey Bresinski’s park review. I love it
"What the hell's a feller to do here man." Lmfao
There used to be a town/almost city built outdoor park 30 mins from my house in a place called Strathmore Alberta.

Still we shredded that park like a piranhas on goldfish.
I feel like you would get an sti if you fell there
5:05 yooo is mike v in the house? DOPE
i stopped at this park once bc i happened to be driving by. I got out did one ollie and said “fuck this park” out loud and proceeded to drive back to portland.
try sheridan lol
Yep, I’ll stick to Tron!! Beaverton park ftw
Jake Oswald hey tron is my local park too
Jake Oswald me too
Salem park is whack too
I don't skate but I love this series and your personality.
It looks impossible to maintain speed... and it's giving me anxiety just watching him
That far shot at the 2:36 point is so cool to me. Man David is a beast of a skater. Holy moly.
killed it tho 😳🔥
Another testament to how much raw talent Dave has this park is literally impossible to do shit at.
"Oregon is the mecca of skateparks!"
Narrator: Not ALL of Oregon...
PLANXRQ doh is Oregon really known as the Mecca of skateparks? Only ask because I live in Oregon
@@jamalydude Yes. See: Burnside
@@jamalydude there's some really incredible parks in Oregon. Plus it's a small state so you can get to a lot of them easily if you're on a skate trip. There's a ton of parks in California but it would be impossible to hit them all up in a short amount of time.
That first line with the double flip and kick flip underflip off the curb🔥
3:33 when she’s home alone
This needs to be series I liked watching this too much
Wheels sounds like their taking a beating
R.I.P Wheels
I've been thinking about trying some softer wheels. Been riding 99a to 101a to 103B for 20 years. Can't seem to find any in the 90 to 92 range in the sizes I ride. 53 to 54mm. I've been riding Bones, DialTone, Wayward, SML and Crupie's
Been thinking of doing 60's for transition and 55's for street.
@Roger Dodger You generally want to use hard wheels so you can slide the board a bit on the ground though. If you tried a bluntslide on a ledge with 84 durometer wheels your board would stick immediately
@Roger Dodger even with wax a bs tail is going to be scary on soft wheels. I say hard wheels loose trucks even in the crust.
Roger Dodger no way, i catch stop rocks all the time it's easy to just run out.
Thank you for taking one for the team. Hate the steep quarters. It's ok but when all of them are fucked like that nooooooo. Thanks dave.
I live here and for the longest time it was actually closed the city council dont even want it they wont let anybody help
Dude I would kill if my skatepark looked like that😭😭 my park has a wooden rail and a hump.
Rural skater as well? We had NOTHING but an empty fire station parking lot, and we still got harrassed there. I would love a park of any kind.
"shirts off for this one maybe" 😂😂😂
Years later these are great clips
do more of these!
This video cracked me up. Some really good one liners in here lmao dope skating too
David went through 10 sets of wheels filming this 😂.
Lol @ the parking barriers right in front of the no parking sign
3:20 "sometimes its just not fair man" lmao
"send help to the kids here... somebody... somebody help."
lmao
I like how on the 5-0 fakie at 5:25 he lands straight to flat because it's so steep
Please make this a series, I love crappy sketchy parks.
Can you bondo the whole park?
The only solution I could think of lol
The real MVP are those Bones wheels and those Bearings. Troopers
“Slower than a hippie in a hemp farm” e__e
Looks fun can’t wait to road trip here
"The only locals, are ants who eat your sandwich" haha
Your bag of tricks is fudging endless bro.... So sick🤘
Man I love my home town 😂😂🙏🏽🙏🏽
I’m a fan of the yearly buckaroo
he sounds like he’s constantly hungover but it’s funny af

its like the show "This Old House"without the renovations
I used to live near here and my Dad would take me here as a kid cause it was the only park around. Knocked the wind out of myself for the first time at this park. Don't miss it..
Who else better to do this than the king of rage?
That kid stopped on his bike and watched like he knew this is the first and last time he'd ever see someone shred this park lmaooo
Designed off the worst self made tony hawks underground park.
With a smooth surface and 10% less vert, this looks like it could be fun. First video ive seen from the channel and I gotta day... So fat so good
Raise your hand if your first driveway quarter was 4 feet tall with 2 feet of vert.
"You have to pump the flat ground". Hilarious.
The flat spot that could be heard in the next city
that is some badass footy I have a park nearby with harsh quarter pipes in a pit but it's not half this bad
the street looks like it has smoother ground than the park
Tyler Scheidt he literally says that.
Dude we would've been happy to have any skatepark back in the day.
Exactly. Back in the 80s there were no parks really. In Houston there was one but you had to pay for it. We were stuck with home made ramps. These kids have no idea how good they got it.
Came here from the instagram story
stoked that John Prine "peaceful waters" was playing in the background after 6:30
At 5: 54. No that would be Venice Beach 😂
I’ve seen worst one in Brazil, this one looks a dream comparing to the one was build in Guarujá/SP.
The park was so awful that after they build no one could skate due the quantity of obstacle close of each other.
That was a frustration when we were kids back there!
Gravette is the best, most funny dude. I'd love to see a best of but just his best quotes and antics
Damn you killed it though... make this a series
Love the kid on the bike watching in awe
It's some weird ass anti skateboarding campaign! xD
Great vid! :D
Man i want another video like this
That is gold compared to anything I had close around Daleville AL
Lmaooo “if you like 4 ft quarterpipes with 2 feet of vert this is the park for you” 🤣
When his voice is low and quiet I couldn’t help but bust out laughing. Then he continues and started the yelling bahahaha
“There’s usually a pyramid involved” 😂
3:47 I was like "fkn street is smoother than the park smh" then he says the same shit lol
this is 10000 times better than my local....
“Only locals are ants that’ll eat your sandwich” 😂
