John, I like that you are covering issues surrounding skateparks, but why are you making a video based on a rumor you heard? Wouldn't it be wise to do your homework on that first? And also, you set a really bad example by going through the fence. When skaters do this it perpetuates our bad image and makes it harder to get good parks. Look at the number of comments you get in these types of videos about how nobody has a skatepark. Barging the spot before it's open isn't helpful.
SkateRatvocateProductions a local spot here in dc actually encouraged skaters to hit it up before the official opening so it's not all bad everywhere. I think the folks backing parks nowadays know what's up 🤗
Does anyone else feel betrayed by their town when they said they would make the skatepark in "phases", and phase one was constructed, which left a lot to be desired, and then six years past and they still have not made phase two?
No because you shouldnt rely on others to build you things. Stay independent and build your own, otherwise you can witness them shutting you out of that park when ever they like.
They did this in a town near me, they started in like 1996, they never added on the addition they were suppose to and also would confiscate or destroy any ramps people made for it.
@@grabithard2534 as much as I want to agree with you, if you live anywhere near a city you're not going to be able to build anything remotely near you Legally.
No worries on the short vid man. You inspire thousands of kids every day, and are making some of the best skateboarding content on the internet. Can't wait to see how big you get in the future. Thanks for being a positive skate role model to all of us kids out there, and showing people that skateboarders aren't all evil stoner teenagers.
Pretty stoked on this video and talk about new parks being built. I just got back into skating with my kid and upon visiting parks from my childhood I found them not maintained and just going to trash. Randomly ran into friends of mine who still skate and they told me how they tried to get the city to fix the park but they just removed the broken ramps and never brought them back. This has Inspired me to look at what I need to do to get more involved with bringing attention to the positive things that come from kids having a skate park. 🤘🛹
Kevin NiceTry So true man! And if we would have actually shut everything down like they were suppose to and not open back up so soon, Everything would have been back to normal by now!
Me when I rip my pants : embarrassedly hides it with my jacket. John : rips his pants to reveal shorts and literally doesn’t care about what people thinks of him now WE STAN JOHN HAHAHA
They were supposed to start building a new skatepark over here in San Antonio, Texas but I think they just gave up on it, not sure lol I need more skateparks over here to do more reviews on, I ran out haha😫💯
Hunter Really that’s the only thing that’s been stopping me from going. I didn’t want to drive all the way up there and it be closed. Thanks a lot man, I appreciate it!!🙏🏻💯
hey john, long time fan of the channel. just want to drop a piece of advice from my past experience. if you are covering something based on what someone else told you, its best to make sure that it is factually accurate. that way you dont have to put a disclaimer saying ''so dont be mad at me if the ''budget'' thing isn't true.'' love all of your content across this channel and the progress daily channel and i was stoked to see nick holt on the berrics channel killing it!! keep up the great work you mad man, i have so much respect for how much you push yourself and how busy you always are. it really inspires me bro, as a 32 year old chef, i try to find as much time as i can to pursue my hobbies such as video games, keeping up on the anime series i follow, the youtube channels i am subbed to, fishing, skating and guitar. anyways much love and respect keep killing it man
Just wanted to share - I’m not a skate boarder - but I love your videos abs really enjoy watching your journey !! Really enjoy your stuff - I find it relaxing to watch you go through the process. I’m in Maryland but I’ve been all over New York City (my nephew is a set designer & Broadway / Manhattan ) always a regular trip !! Keep up the great work - good luck w/ the move & the upcoming wedding!!!
I was in NYC 2 days ago and I was actually blown away that like 1/6 people I saw weren't wearing masks and didn't have one visible. Saw people without masks renting out those Citi bikes. I live in PA work in NJ and service sites in NYC and even my red state is more on the masks than the city. I gloved up and didn't remove the mask for a second, happy to see people calling out others for not wearing them
I’m so excited for the progress daily clothes I ordered I have been wanting to order some for a while now, love your videos John and keep killing iiiiiiiit
The edits on this video are leaps and bounds ahead of anything previous. Progress daily indeed. Seriously this is out of this world good from an editing perspective.
This park is sooooooo sick. I live pretty close and have gone a few times in the evening. This is seriously one of the best parks I've ever been to. You can't beat the location, features, and design. A+++++++++++++++++++++
John hill, the man. The legend. Really I don’t know how he keeps up with all his podcasts and business and uploading videos for us. What a great dude.😂👏🏻
Just landed my first Ollie today. For any one struggling, what work for me was sincronizing the kick with the jump, and jumping from de board just with my right foot, poping it and kicking it, make sure you poop good, ALSO REALLY IMPORTANT, have your shoulders parallel with the board, this change the entire game for me. I practice 2 weeks straight for 1 hour daily, I practice the Ollie before but no consistently. Practice everyday and don't be afraid.
Damn son. Don’t mean to brag but you got me thinking. I have over a dozen free parks plus Vans and Woodward within an hour. Think you need to move soon player!
You should do a video talking about how you film yourself skating and how you edit it. Also like mindset going into during and after the skating. I find myself having to film myself and I often get discouraged with it alongside of not being creative enough when editing so its basically raw clips. Some advice and pointers would be fantastic.
My city built a half assed park a decade or so ago, I was on the committee for it. They hired the cheapest people possible, didn't use any of our ideas we had planned, and then abandoned it. It's a pyramind with a 5 set/hubbas and rail, and 3 different sized rails. That's it. Lol My buddy who owns the local skate shop made a petition/fundraiser for a new park which is going very well. So hopefully we get a new one within the next year.
I started following you for that video, can't believe its been a year. You have inspired me so much, Im skating again and you have no idea how that has helped me in my life. Really love your content, keep killing it!!!
Hey, John. Do you shoot your Vlogs with your phone? I've been shooting mine with a mirrorless and exchanging lenses and blah blah blah but it's starting to get annoying because I am not getting a consistent exposure. Yours are always on point
Our town started to build a skatepark about 5 years ago and they stopped after building a foundation. We basically have a foundation for a skatepark for 5 years and now the place needs to get torn down again because trees started growing there. Fun experience
Hey john. Just letting you know that I really enjoyed this video and that you did an amazing job. That park is beautiful and your skating perfectly complemented it.
Got back in skating yesterday after not riding for almost 2 years, re learned all the basic tricks and even landed a heel flip which I was pretty hyped about, also came close to a 360 flip once. Glad I came across your channel again🤙😁
Is that where the Blue skatepark was? that was the oldest skate park in New York City old blue wooden ramps you could see from the high way what a bummer the old school one was there from the late 80s early 90s I think there's old clips of Jason Lee and gonz skating it.
Correct, it was the blue metal ramps seen from the highway, built in 1996 by Andy Kessler, Manhattan's first full Skatepark. See the Riverside Skatepark Wikipedia page

Your vlogs inspire me, I'm trying to vlog more and be infront of the camera. I've always been anxious about it 🛹♥️🛹

seeing the dust come up every time he lands is oddly satisfying
agreed
Like an old kung fu movie, makes everything more epic.
that's the new skatepark look dude, almost like a newborn baby..... but its concrete
Best thing about new concrete parks. Downfall is the dust on your board after making it very slippy
Weirdo
Does anyone else feel betrayed by their town when they said they would make the skatepark in "phases", and phase one was constructed, which left a lot to be desired, and then six years past and they still have not made phase two?
That sucks
No because you shouldnt rely on others to build you things. Stay independent and build your own, otherwise you can witness them shutting you out of that park when ever they like.

I fell bad for people who don’t have a skatepark and think they are getting one but it gets canceled
I know the feeling...
Where I live that’s what happened lmfao
that's me
dude i live in a third world country called Malawi and we have literally no skateparks in the whole country
I don’t have one
John:Takes on a helmet to walk his Bike.
Arrives to skatepark: takes his helmet of
The helmet is useful either way when he doesn’t buckle it. I hope he doesn’t crack like an egg when he falls on his head
Its because police can fine you if ur in a bike without helmet
4th Boy not in nyc
the spelling errors lmao
Nice park! All the slanted wall ride bank walls!

nice too see you here cuckoo :)

That upbeat music for the new park session got me vibing 💯 love the video!
I can’t even do an Ollie yet and this park looks fun as hell
its so amazing
That skatepark literally has everything!
When Jon Reyes said “that’s kinda gay” after the “handshake” that just made my day.😂
It’s Jon Reyes btw.
@@milespotato2077 that's what it says stupid
Marty Ruskamp he edited it actually
I did edit it by the way thx for the correction creamy

Great content John. Thanks for the quarantine entertainment. Always appreciated!
New York had 0 Covid Cases..
We had about 1,000 over here in SA Texas. Crazy how now it’s the opposite from before!🤦🏻♂️
i think the same here in Arlington TX, or just the greater DFW area... too many cases
Ik I wish COVID never happened but life ain't fair
Skylab Beats Facts😞💯
If everyone in America wore a mask in public for six weeks the whole country would have 0 cases. Facts.
Kevin NiceTry So true man! And if we would have actually shut everything down like they were suppose to and not open back up so soon, Everything would have been back to normal by now!
John, i have a question.
What was the music you listent to when you started skateboarding?
Keep Killan It!
Just shazam it
I got you man.... You've done enough by Ritchie Everett
Anyone else bored of TH-cam except when John comes through with a new video?
Me when I rip my pants : embarrassedly hides it with my jacket.
John : rips his pants to reveal shorts and literally doesn’t care about what people thinks of him now
WE STAN JOHN HAHAHA
John Hill Vlogs = Skateparks I want in skate games.
This park looks so sick!
I literally went here a couple of days ago... its fenced off. theyre still building the bowl part
Hop the fence. Everyone does it there
Ethan Paulino kicked out immediately
@@nskat0714 theirs a hole in the fence now and a lot of people come and go in the late hours of the day too
They were supposed to start building a new skatepark over here in San Antonio, Texas but I think they just gave up on it, not sure lol I need more skateparks over here to do more reviews on, I ran out haha😫💯
You been up to Boerne? They've got a little skatepark that's pretty cool
Hunter Bro I was actually thinking about heading up there for my next video. Haven’t been there in years!
@@kennybryan._ It's been basically vacant the last few days, but it's open to skate. I guess I'll sub to see you shred it! :)

That park looks like it’s straight outta my dreams🤩
Loved this video John! The music and the flow of the video was on point
What do u think about helmets
Head injuries arent worth it, had family who died of dementia/Alzheimer's. Shits brutal. I wear it whenever im doing stuff thats not just flat ground.
Not the one you asked to, but...
Its better to be laughed at that being dead or with a head injure
I literally can't find a helmet that fits my head, so I dont wear one
@@briannicholson3658 get a new one
I need me some of those Progress Daily shorts!!!🔥😫

It’s nice to watch John and Jon’s vid. You get both perspectives.
John Hill’s consistency and volume of difficult tricks is definitely pro! Also - nice bike I want one!
I was in NYC 2 days ago and I was actually blown away that like 1/6 people I saw weren't wearing masks and didn't have one visible. Saw people without masks renting out those Citi bikes.

Awesome vid as always Jon 😎 you inspire me to skate rock on bro 🤘
Dude John is the guy that looks good wearing pants that also looks good wearing shorts...
Bro u killed that park. So creative, I love it. Keep up the great work. Cheers
They extended my local about 2 years ago and they hired someone who had never built a skatepark before, making most of the ledges in rideable
so excited to watch your vids thank you for making my day more enjoyable with your good vibes
John hill, the man. The legend. Really I don’t know how he keeps up with all his podcasts and business and uploading videos for us. What a great dude.😂👏🏻

LOVE the new music!
John makes me happy
I’ve been trying for years to get a skatepark in my home town I always gotta bus for almost 2 hours just to get to the closest skatepark
Damn son. Don’t mean to brag but you got me thinking. I have over a dozen free parks plus Vans and Woodward within an hour. Think you need to move soon player!
Try finding an Abandoned lot and build a diy
That's cool, enjoy the ride and live in the moment.
The Barnyard lmao sounds like I need to move wherever you live
D3 .R kinda hard to enjoy sweating balls on a bus with a bunch of crack heads, but I definitely try my best lol
Heck yea dude! Love your vids as usaul❤🖤❤

What an amazing session!
Good job Jason Park!! Keep down this learning every day thing
The fact it’s unfinished and still better than 90% of parks is crazy
That park looks AMAZING!!!
Like a cheeseburger without the top bun.
Perfectly unfinished.
Park looks perfect! even if it's unfinished. super jealous!!
I have so much respect for the fact your main man is a scooterer and you even put some of his clips in. Props for not being a scooter hating weirdo.
That’s a sick park Wish I could skate it
That’s a perfect park. They just need some quarters at each end
