First off this is totally rad, I hope to some day do a single trek across the US but relay format seems really cool too. My main questions are did you guys run into a lot/any trouble with the law and were there ever instances when drivers acted dangerous/like dicks to the skaters.

@sprok89 Keep watching the next episodes we show a couple runins and more to come in later episodes, we had a few runins with the police and dicks however overall they were mostly very friendly and helpful! I wrote up a safety guide from our experiences, you can find it in the skateacrossusa blog and on ScrapedPalms website

What I admire this video is you guys are all going for it and seem like genuine nice fellas out for the adventure and fun of long-boarding. You aren't putting on a front nor acting like fools on camera. I look forward to seeing your skills progress on the boards and the same goes for the editing too.

Thanks we are fools but I'm glad we didn't appear so, any editing tips? The footage we have unfortunately is part of the problem, not enough was taken and much of it is shaky...
