 Alright guys, I'm out here with Dan skating today. We're out of this little park here I'm not sure what park this park is called somewhere in Long Beach. This is a warm-up spot We're gonna warm up here then we're gonna go skate some other stuff a little bit warm today That's why my shirts off already getting sweaty up in this, but yeah, check out the park Cool little park here good warm-up spot got a flat bar here that's square Some nice little edges here. You grinded that pretty good considering it's square Yeah Squareness squareness we've got this big bank here Little quarter that goes up onto the box here some more little ledges you can hop around on have some fun a little Curved boat style ledge. I don't know what you would call this and then the hip section here It's pretty cool to really mellow hips. I've been trying to learn a front side big spin over here in a backside big spin We've got this Ledge up on top of the bank too, which looks like fun Yeah This is a warm-up spot for the day We're gonna get warmed up and then we're gonna go skate some other stuff around Long Beach So it should be a pretty good video Sean's out here with a fresh deck doing good Nali flips Can't make up his mind about his trucks. Are you making him tighter or looser or tighter? When it's cold the skipper when it's warm Yeah, but in California the weather doesn't really change Stepping down a size Which is fine wasn't intentional just the shop to navigate in the half Evidently there is a surplus of adults shopping there I don't know Sean maybe you found your size He didn't I feel like a lot of people neglect the backside no slide. I think they're rad It's a trick that you learn earlier on and then you like you pretty much like give them up for Crocker grinds But like to be really good at no slides I think it's sick like the slide long ones or do stuff with them, and I like those slides There you go, that was a slap technically a slappy nice. Yeah, dude. What happened? Yeah, we've done the bigger harder drugs It is He's gonna stick on this nice line. Oh That was a black tar nose slide. I don't have a look sick Yeah, eight three eighths your move. I think not a friend is this are easier than Ali backnose this Yeah, could you get to see the whole time? Nali back nose feels more like a high Nali a Nali front nose is more just like a Nali shifty. You got Yeah, it's not a little earlier Even definitely earlier than that. Have you done that trick before? Nali front nose. Yeah new trick Wow unlock. I've only been here like a week or something. No, yeah, they're brand out. Oh my god Ledges here. We're gonna skate and it's shaded a nice shaded area Check it out. How did it go? How does it feel? So this side just been hit a fair amount already you can tell how waxed up it is Yeah, it must be made of some like Really dense wood if it grinds Check it out. No, it's like the top one. So up to you. You won't Get up there see what happens. Yeah. Now you're fine up there. It's probably safe Fun fact, I broke my rib on the bottom stair Tried to 5-0 and I missed back or front front broke my rib I'll build myself in the rib Great Golden bin chickens. No, we don't have this. I Thought that was gonna be a pun like you've been chicken or something. Yeah, I know the skate park John's gonna learn from people back 180. So just Ali into a front feeble. Yeah And then you got it simple as that. Yeah Let me come to this way. Yep. Yeah, just push it. He just happens do it. Do it not bad one better one Yeah, I see that one. I just want to want the curb It's all wax, but I'll show you tell me if I can get in That's actually a good way to think of it think of it as if you're gonna like Pop out like half cab out and where your body weight would be to make that happen It's where your body weight needs to be to slide good. It was a little flaccid, but you did it So come the end of May I'm gonna be here for six months. So within that six months I've been able to skate a whole lot more and I've been able to progress a whole lot more as well I think personally if it wasn't for me being able to skate more With different people especially skating of Dan pushing me all the time I wouldn't have progressed the way that I have and I feel I don't even feel like I've progressed at skating I just feel like I'm learning new ways to skate if that makes sense. Like I'm learning new techniques for skateboarding in a way Whereas I am learning new things, but it's kind of like if you apply the same fundamental basics of skateboarding like Weight and body position and stuff different ways. You can learn a whole bunch of new stuff It's quite it's all quite relative really if you have the basics down you can just add on and go from there, but Yeah, California being in California living and skating here and everything has definitely Changed my life in a way like I've been Blessed with so much opportunity out here. It's kind of like wow, why didn't I do this sooner? You know like I feel like when I was back in Sydney, I could Kind of work towards what I am doing and create, but I was kind of I Kind of had one hand behind my back So I can only use like one hand kind of thing I felt like I was kind of trapped in a way not trapped But like I felt like I was restrained in a way where as out here I feel so much more opportunistic about everything like YouTube skateboarding everything else everything is great If I hadn't have come out here, I would have regretted it if I stayed in Sydney I would have regretted it because I would be like there's so much more out there and I want it You know, I was stuck in Sydney trying to do the most that I could with what I had and everything felt like the biggest effort ever because I Was trying so much and I didn't really have much people to bounce off that were doing the same thing whereas out here Dan and I will go on skate Multiple times a week. I'll film him. He'll film me and we'll have a bunch of fun get a bunch of clips and it's like a great Thing I always said relationship like Dan and I in a relationship, but you know what I mean like it just feels so much better out here So I'm definitely Trying to stay out here forever like I do want to go back to Sydney to see my mom and stuff obviously but With COVID and everything else. I don't know how soon that'll be this time last year Was when the slab was in full swing and I think I had like 3000 subscribers But now I'm at like 22.5 pushing to get 25k So I feel like all my little wins are all adding up and all my effort and stuff It's all going to a common goal and it's all gonna pay off. That's how I feel on my head anyway But yeah, I'm gonna stop rambling on because this is a long video already. Anyway guys Thank you so much for you guys's support and if you're new here, make sure you subscribe But until then I'll catch you in the next video guys. Cheers for watching He said it's almost like my city
