 So today I'm taking a little road trip up north, about 60 miles, so about an hour and a half driving. Gonna meet up with a friend from the East Coast, his name's Dalton. So we've been talking on Instagram and FaceTiming back and forth. He's come out from the East Coast to visit California for a little bit. Gonna head up, get a session in and yeah, see what the day brings. I like taking little road trips throughout California because the weather's always so nice here. Traffic sucks but you just gotta bite the bullet with that one. So I'm out here with Mr. Dalton, from all the way from the East Coast. Yeah, he's from the East Coast, so you're from Penn, Pennsylvania. Yeah, I'm from like an hour north of Philly, like Allentown Bethlehem area, Lehigh Valley. And this is your second time out on the West Coast. Yeah, I was out here when I was like 10, my nana lives out here and I just came out again on 23 now. Since we've never dated. Yeah, it's been like, yeah, 12, 13 years since I've been out here. How is it now that you're older? Well, I actually like got to meet my grandmother, which was awesome. Like as an adult, like have a conversation with my grandmother in person at least. And then like, I don't know, the only thing I have to say is that everything is dry. Yeah, so dry. Like my eyes hurt like pretty much all the time. I had that same problem when I came out here. After a day of skating, my eyes felt so dry and red and irritated because it's so dry out here. Whereas on the East Coast, it's a bit more, yeah, a bit more humidity. Same with Australia. Yeah. What do you think of the skate parks out here compared to back East? The one that I went to in Barstow was a little wonky, like transition wise. Yeah. But it was it was really awesome. I haven't seen any like prefab parks. Everything is concrete. Yeah, it's very rare to see a prefab out here out out our area. Like I think we have we have like maybe three or four, like really notable concrete parks. And then there's a lot of stuff that's like half concrete, half prefab or full prefab. Yeah, right. Yeah, that's different, man. I mean, I haven't been out to the East Coast yet, but yeah, this stuff feels really sturdy to me. You were saying earlier that he stuck to my board. Yeah, he jumped on and like just started shredding and he just looks so solid on his board. Yeah, like this was crazy. I'm used to like hopping around on like prefab ramps and stuff that are like they've got like bolts sticking out of them in a real sketch. That's East Coast style. Yeah, like this stuff is so like it's so smooth. It's weird almost. Yeah, honestly, it's so smooth. It's weird. Yeah, it's like glass on. Yeah, yeah, exactly. Especially with the sand sitting all over it. Yeah, man, it was nice to meet you, bro. Yeah, thanks for coming out and skating. Yeah, we're going to get some clips right now, some skating clips. If I can warm up. First time in a boll slash pool, is it? This was your first time like skating a boll or a pool or anything? Oh, it could be, judging by that. Victorville skate park, pretty sick. I'll give you guys a little tour right now. There's a pretty crazy boll slash pool section here, coping around that side, pool coping here. We've got this three block here. That's like kind of like a bleacher type of set. Fun to skate, but kind of scary too, because if you slip out and fall, you're going to end up at the bottom there. Some more transitions, the elbow here, the nipple. Cool little pyramid thing here that goes over into a bank. What is this? One, two, three, four, five, six, seven set. The down rail, baby Euro gap here. This is a fun section. There's a manual pad, an out rail, another flat bar here, but it's square, it's unfortunate. Really fun rainbow rail over here. Kind of roller, fun box type thing here. Pretty sick hip, and massive down ledge with a big hubber to jump onto. It's really hard to get speed dolly onto this. Like I got onto it before, but you have to like huck an ollie to get onto it. Really steep. How is it? Yeah, that gives you guys a bit of insight to see how tall this is. Oh, look at those bubbles. Bubbles? I didn't even notice that, the guy at Venice Beach. Set it up for you? Set it up for me. You need to refunds, mate. Go back and follow around. There's an A-frame here, big A-frame rail with a roller on the side. This is all banked around here. This is really cool. Miniature down rail here. It's round. You can slap it up onto it. I don't know what you would call this, a Euro gap or like a, it's a pretty big Euro gap for what it is. It's only very small transition. I don't know why it's that long. If you guys know the name of what they call these things, let me know. But yeah, as you guys can see, transition all the way around takes you down to that elbow there. Super fun. Pretty cool hip. I think that's like a four foot, five foot quarter, not too sure. I think it's four. Four foot? Yeah. And that leads us around to the rainbow rail, which goes back to the park here. Spawn Ranch built this park. So, you know, Spawn Ranch build quality parks. They usually paint their parks yellow though, and this park is blue. This is the color of how our park used to be in Quaker Town. Oh really? Yeah, this is what our like old, old park used to be. Quaker Town blue. Quaker Town blue. Quake. Quake shake. The Panthers. Is that the team there? Yeah, the Panthers. For all you East Coast dudes, you'll know what he's talking about. Is it football team? Yeah, so it's like in my hometown football team. Panthers. Quaker Town Panthers, mate. Not the Panor Panthers. Yeah, but this is- You've done that beautiful show. I did, but you've done a bunch today. I don't think you did one in the line though. We can organize it later. Here we go. Big tall shove it. Pop shove it, my bad. There's a roller that goes to like a vert wall here. Oh, that thing's sick. I don't know how tall it is, but it's at least eight foot, but there's a gnarly little roller you can pump through, get up the top of that vert wall, pump back down and have a lot of speed to hit the rest of the park here. So Dalton is actually an artist and he collabed with another artist. He collabed with another artist. Skyler, her name was? Skyler, yeah. Skyler, yeah. They pretty much collabed on this board and he gave it to me earlier today. Sick. So you guys are quick. Check it out. So sick. Hand painted. So you said there was like spray paint and then paint paint. Yeah, so there's spray paint, acrylic paint, Posca pens, and then just like clear coat and stuff. Yeah, check it out. It's sick. He knows me so well. Look at these chains. So good. I free handed all the chains. Yeah, it's just like, yeah man. I was so nervous to free hand those like final lines and everything. Oh really? No, you got it. Like if I, I'll show you all the errors on it. Yeah, even the eye, that's so trippy. My God. Yeah, that was, the eye was, the eye was I didn't, I'll show you the like original doodle of it. Okay. But the original intention with this was I drew, I think I drew the eye and then the chains and like the frames and stuff. Yeah, yeah. And the goal was like, was I want to do two parts of this and then have Sky do the other two. So I did the chains and the eye, but she ended up actually painting the eye. Oh, sick. Cause I'm like learning like perspective shapes and stuff like that. How to properly do like deptual cylinders, rectangles and all that stuff. So we like just figured it would be way better for me to do that top one with the spray paint bottle and everything. And then have her do the eye and the arm because she does like humans all the time. Yeah. Eyes and stuff. So we made that shift at the end, but that was supposed to be a tattoo gun here. Okay. But she decided against it late. Oh man. Either way, dude. This is, this thing is sick. Like it's, this is going to be a wall hanging up for sure, man. This is a, I think this is my, apart from like, when we're still building the slab, a younger kid came one day and he gave me a fingerboard he had painted and it was a replica of the hockey board I was riding. So I guess that was a first piece of fan art, but this is the second, but this is definitely, yeah, this is crazy, man. Yeah. Thank you. Thank you. This was a lot of fun. Yeah. It's just crazy because like, like dude, I'm from Australia. Like I'm from the bottom of the earth. Like there's not much that goes on there. And then you've been able to like kind of connected me in a way through YouTube and the internet and stuff. And now we're here today and yeah. I think, I think the first thing that I said to you, like I walked up to you the first time and I was like the fan, like the fan thing hit. Oh yeah. I like stuttered. I like stuttered. I was like nervous. Oh yeah. I was like, fuck dude. I was like, we're really starting like this. I'm pretty down to a pretty chill, man. Like, yeah, it's just crazy different perspective, man. But yeah, wow. Thank you. Absolutely. Thank you so much. Yeah. So big shouts out to Skylar and Dalton for painting me that board. Super, super happy with it. I'm still kind of blown away by like how I was able to kind of influence type of thing just from my YouTube videos to reach those guys on the other side of the world basically and for them to come together and paint me a board. Pretty sick. Like, thank you. If you guys wanna check out the rest of their art, I'm gonna leave the links in the description below. Go check them out on Instagram, chucking my follow, support local, smaller artists. Pretty much it. How did our day skating up at Victorville apart from the heat? I think I might have to get some glasses for skating out here. Maybe I need to get some glasses or something because my eyes are so dry. At the end of the day, it sucks. But yeah. Cheers for watching and until next time guys. I'll see you in the next video.
