The SLS style parks are still "fun." Maybe you just need to approach it differently. Additionally, most communities nowadays are more inclined to make parks that can lead their users to someday become Olympic athletes. Kinda the same thing with every other sport. Think about the communities that don't have a single skatepark and you're gonna complain about the designs? 😂 At least we aren't skating the shitty gigantic concrete parks when people didn't understand physics entirely.
4:20 holy shit that dude went over the arch in the background, i rarely see people do that whenever im there. Tht wave have some serious over vert to it too
Hi John. I'm an aggressive quad skater, former skateboarder, thought I would share some vocab/lingo and roller skate history with you and the comment lurkers! This is a response to the comment "Roller derby has gotten really gnarly, they can skate pretty much skate any obstacle skaters can skate." 2:31 "Roller derby" is not the same as "aggressive quad skating." Roller derby is a contact team sport. Some roller derby players might also do aggressive quad skating, but not all derby players do, nor does every aggressive quad skater play derby. Additionally, the obstacle you're referring to resembles what is typically used in "banked track derby", where some derby teams play on flat ground. "Rollerblades"(inlines) are also not typically used in roller derby. "Quad skates" have two axis's of movement on each skate, vs the one axis per skate inlines have. This increases your chances of falling on quads, yet expands the range of agility and precision in movement. Range of motion is increased with the use of "toe stops" which are rubber breaks we can use to stop, walk, or launch off of without using wheels. "Roller skates" is often used as an umbrella term, though it originally referred to quads. Roller blades/"inline skates" are often referred to as roller skates, and quad skates are roller skates, but quad skates are not roller blades. Quad roller skates are the original roller skates, dating back to the 1800s. These are the skates with "trucks". Inline skates are the skates with the four wheels (sometimes 2 wheels are used with 2 "anti-rockers" in the middle) in a line or row per skate, hence "inline". The term "Rollerblade" comes from a brand name, like how some people call tissues, kleenex. Aggressive quad roller skating is not actually as new as we think, just more relevant today which has helped progress the sport. In the late 70s to the 90s, aggressive quad roller skaters were actually skating vert ramps, doing stalls and catching air. Highly suggest you check out CIB crew's "History of Vertical Roller Skating" playlist on TH-cam if you want to be mindblown by dudes side surfing vert ramps and flying in the 80s. Grinding and sliding came later. An attachment that is placed between two trucks, called "slide/grind blocks" are a relatively recent innovation which enables quad skaters to slide and lock in on obstacles from side to side. One of the most recent developments in aggressive quad skating is the use of "wide trucks" in order to get better lock in on grinds. While it started with skaters putting 3.125 penny board trucks on their skates, eventually companies like Chuffed Skates, Brunny Hardcore and Huck started manufacturing wide trucks specifically made for quad skates. p.s. if you made it this far, here is a FUN FACT: Quad roller skates came before skateboards, and skateboards were invented using roller skate trucks. All wheels, all day. Hope y'all enjoyed some history no one asked for :)
With love from a rollerblader. Rollerblading is not roller derby & quad skating is not all roller derby. That like calling you a Longboarder or even a BMXer. It's all very different. Appreciate the video and love for Quad skaters though ❤ They shred so hard.
@@LeonardSkinnard in my city in england, there is one decent mixed skatepark (big bowl, mini ramp, big ramps, a 2 flat 2 with rail and hubbas, a huge manny pad, and a square flat bar with a hue metal grate next to it, and 3 parking blocks. i cant do shit at that park, its so bad for beginners. sorry for the long comment i got carried away listing the stuff. yknow what, look it up here on youtube, Bath Victoria Skatepark. i'll look up your park
@@Inexpressable when i used to skate in some backwater village central EU not even the curbs were skateable. way wayyy too rough. Our lucky town even had a "skatepark" with a tiny wave and a quarter pipe. That's it :D
Rollerblading kind of requires obstacles that are a little higher and much longer than skateboard obstacles when comparing skaters at similar skill level. It's simply less interesting to grind a 5-6ft long rail with how stable our lock in is. A 10-12ft rail allows for switch-ups and long steezy grinds. Also, since our blades are strapped to us, we don't really require the same amount of setup time between obstacles. Hence them being built close together sometimes. It allows us to do a line in a tighter, more rapid fire sequence. Hit up some bladers for a session sometime, might make for an interesting video.
@TheGuyBroNintySix What a closed minded perspective. I suggest checking out Chris Haffey's Drip Drop, Carlos Pianowski's Fruitbooter, or Brian Shima's Killer Boots sections. I promise, if you're willing to give these videos a real chance, you WILL see how unbelievable roller blading has gotten. It's nice to see parks that cater to the needs of specific sports. Especially if they could be seen as niche or a risky investment. How much more anti-establishment can you get than that?
@s.s.o.georgia7034 Ya know... I'll start off saying that I'm a 35 year old dude who hasn't stepped on a skateboard in about 5 years (some kind of chronic inflammation shit with my left knee is too painful when attempting just a simple ollie).. I've never cared for rollerblading due to being the old school "SKATE OR DIE" closed minded fuck. My beliefs were something like "how hard is to run and jump on stuff with wheels attached to your lamborfeeties"!? Buuuttt, after watching one of your recommended video parts - Brian Shima's Killer Boots section, I must admit that my mind has been blown. You can tell how hard he goes, his passion, speed, willingness to go big is insane. That super long grind on the tight curve rail where it ends like inches beside a car and a bush.. the God d*** 510,000,999 stair grind with the kink.. The hubba grind transfer to rail, crazy maaannnn
@skaterjed Dude, this is what I'm talking about. All of these sports are so sick if you're willing to appreciate them! The Chris Haffey section opens with a gap so large, he fractures BOTH of his heels when he "lands". And Pianowski front side grinds a pretty good size handrail, IN A STRAIGHT JACKET! I grew up trying to skateboard and realized I just wasn't very good at it, but when I found rollerblading it allowed me to learn the physics easier. When I tried getting back on a board, I landed an ugly nollie first try, something I simply couldn't imagine before. Hahaha.
watch Brian Shima 666 to see his career ender, does a roof gap short to flatbank and the impact is horrendous. The bolts that hold our version of "trucks" the frame to his boot shattered the plastic of the boot and shot up his heels, wheelchair 2 years. @@skaterjed
Man, no wonder skaters from Cali are so damn good. Look at the parks! The street spots are aweeady legendary in themselves. Some of the parks are an absolute dream. Dfw is just now getting parks with varying skill level obstacles and not just catered to bikers(huge sets and hubbas, big euro gaps, etc.).
Not to mention smooth streets and sidewalks lining those streets. We used to skate the gaps between driveways all the way down the street. Unfortunately living in DFW now, the concrete work is attrocious!
100% not to mention the weather, we got mostly shitty outdated skateparks up here in Washington & all the new ones are always in super rainy parts of Washington where you can only skate it 2/3 months of the year lol😊
Glad you had the opportunity to come to one of the skateparks close to my area! 🤘🏼 La Puente is very unique and I think it really allows any skater to be creative
No BS, I love your videos and they actually do inspire me to go get better and learn new tricks. You remind me of both how much I still want to improve, and how much I enjoy the process. The haters can screw off, keep killing it!
Awesome to see the respect you gave to aggressive inline skaters in your video! Always enjoy watching your videos even though I'm an aggressive inliner myself and not a skate boarder
Love your vids homie! Hopefully not sounding like "that guy" buy have you ever tried rollerblading? Since you've been getting into parkour movements I think it might be something you might like/pick up quickly. Grinding is just like doing precision jumps onto ledges while moving.
When I first watched this channel I thought you were just a guy exploring parks and talking about how they are. Maybe push around a little bit and talk with locals. This is the second show I'm watching of you. You are a good skater. I've been skating since 1985 when I was 10 and grew up around SF Oakland, Berkley skateboarding. I used to skate EMB every week, but not every day. I lived in Oakland across the bay. Keep this up man I enjoy it. I'm connected with a skate shop in Oakland Called Break Free. If in the SF Bay Area anytime come by. It's at 1212 Webster ST. Oakland.
Ahhh this park looks so fun...parks used to be more this size (of obstacles) in the 90s...now a lot of parks have a lot of big stuff.. high rails, full size ledges...8-12 stairs...I think it's good for parks to be big and have levels for everyone...or just be medium cuz all levels of skill can have fun on smaller/medium stuff...I just like to get more tech and practice stuff to try later on bigger ledges/rails/stairs etc. This park looks so fun
I remember when I first skated a park in California and it wasn't even one of those REALLY giant awesome parks. It was just a neighborhood park in Anaheim and I found it hard to skate. I think parks in California are naturally more advanced because skating first flourished there and everyone is much better than an average skater from another state.
Rollerblader here! I can personally say that that park looks sick! I don't have a really good park in my area with obstacles to fill my needs as an aggressive inline skater. So most of the time, I take to the streets to practice gaps and grinds. Edit: Aggressive inline doesn't have a very big trick vocabulary when it comes to flat-ground tricks(unless you're a "wizard skater"), so there are gonna be many more ledges to grind👍
I'm really happy you show these "off" days. keeps it real. enough hyperpolished content out there - this way we can see that it's not all perfect tricks all day every day. Even the greats have to bite through the bad days :)
Hi John, watch your content a while and love your technical skating. The Last few videos I have the feeling, youre a bit stressed out. Life is hard with family and so much work to do. This Video you were much more relaxed, which was much more enjoyable to watch for me personally. Dont stress too much, youre doing a very good Job. Wish you the best. Cheers :) a adult end 30s :P...
I noticed that the rails don’t have a lot of supports. That’s a good touch. Skateparks these days are making their rails solid as heck with no flex which makes falling on them extremely painful.
As a rollerblader, this park is more for skateboards. If it were for rollerblades, the ledges would have circle coping, the coping in the bowl would be raised and all of those square rails would be circle. Stil a cool park though.
I haven’t watched John in a while it was like watching him turn back to a human in this video. Still gnarly park hope you go back and get more creative tricks on it. You sounded kind of bummed I feel like you had some creative tricks in mind
It seems like the terms ‘’frontside’’ and ‘’backside’’ have changed meaning since I was a kid. How can a ledge be frontside? We called anything where your back faces the direction you are moving backside. So a board slide on an obstacle you approach face on would be backside because you are sliding in the direction of your back. The terminology came from surfing.
just ordered a creature complete skateboard for a pretty good price, it is my first ever skateboard and will be start skating next week when it comes and this videos are pretty inspiring
good god I wish I had park like this near me. I'd get back into skating for sure. The one we have here is just dispicable. Look up the Tonasket, WA skate park. it's really sad. I might just build a mini ramp in my yard, buy some used rollerblades and pick up where I left off 20 years ago hahaha.
can somebody explain to me why this is considered a "rollerblading skatepark"?? because i have been blading for 17 years and i can't figure it out. everything is low, square rails instead of round rails, no copings on the banks, barely any long quarterpipes? the only thing i would consider "for rollerblading" is the flat rail, and even that i'd consider a warmup spot.
Wish there were more skateparks like this, dedicated to fun rather than street league/competitive training grounds
Wow buddy that’s a blazing hot take
Skateboarding needs to get back to progression and stop this lazy thrift store oufit stupidity
"competitive training grounds" 😂😂😂 Competition used to only be vert, so now that we have street contests, street parks are "training grounds?" 😂

@TheGuyBroNintySix I feel like if they can make either more plaza style parks or “mini golf” type parks it would be an easier learning curve

It seems like the terms ‘’frontside’’ and ‘’backside’’ have changed meaning since I was a kid. How can a ledge be frontside? We called anything where your back faces the direction you are moving backside. So a board slide on an obstacle you approach face on would be backside because you are sliding in the direction of your back. The terminology came from surfing.
