With 5300+ videos on the channel, I can understand how coming up with new ideas is a challenge. I legit sat and thought for a half an hour. I got nothing that hasn't been done. I will say my favorite vids are when the team just jams a spot. Be it at the braille house, a park or the rare Braille street missions.
Food for thought. Bring back the skate video duels. Where each skater picks a videographer and camera, then they put a part together. I haven’t seen one in a couple of months, yet they were very interesting and entertaining videos. I definitely understand the challenge in finding new things. However don’t forget about the under explored gems you already have! Keep up the great work Braille fam! You guys bring constant entertainment and motivation to my life and many others!
I would love to see y’all making new obstacles to skate again. Just letting the guys in the Braille park do whatever and make cool obstacles. You did one with JD and that video was amazing!!
Love the videos I use to skate from the age of about 16-21. I hit deep depression I have severe anxiety and have experienced severe trauma and everyday is a challenge. I have recently picked up a skateboard and have forced myself out of my shell and am now going to the skatepark at the age of 36. Your videos are what got me into wanting to skate again and having the motivation to get out there and skate again thanks!!! Keep up the great videos!!! I really enjoy the channel and content you are doing.
if you don't mind me asking was that something that happened over time or were you born without sight in the eye ? kind of cool to see how people cope with various things when it's not something they're born with
@@unscathedpilot I am interested as well, it is a very big fear of mine to lose sight. I feel as though i would lose touch with whats around me and become almost desensitized to not being very aware, however i also feel like once you rely on your other senses more and get used to only seeing with one eye, it is so different it could open up opportunities to do things differently that you hadnt thought of with both eyes. idk, very interesting topic and i'll be waiting to OP to respond!
My fav Braille vids are things like the Anything Counts SKATE tournament, the Hardcore SKATE tournament, and the You Bail You Lose Money challenges. Hardcore SKATE has such huge potential. I'd love to see Braille host a serious showdown in that format with other skaters and teams from overseas (remotely if in person isn't possible). Seems like the kind of thing folks like Giger, Anderson, Frost, and Griffin would take to the moon and back.
For video ideas: street skating videos are personally my favorite and they do well, also you could grab someone at a park and be like hey today we’re going to teach you this trick, and then show you teaching them and such, 3rd person skating, get a drone and a car head set and follow the person skating like a 3rd person game
Keeping by this train of thought, I would be interested in seeing you guys use upside-down glasses, invertoscopes, getting used to riding with them and then trying SKATE.
Love all the crazy stuff you guys do and come up with(it's like a science experiment with skateboarding 😎👌 congrats ice king on the win, weirdness is your Forte 👏 love braille ❤
You should do a dark room game of skate, where you have to start in a bright room and then immediately go into a dim lit room and try to do tricks. Almost like dizzy skate, but when your eyes are adjusting to the light.
(CHALLENGE IDEA LIKE SO THEY CAN SEE) I got an idea for a video, a game of "play it where it lies skate". What you guys could do is use some object like a chair or something and play a game on that. And if someone knocks over the chair on their try, the next person has to do a trick on the chair how it is (laying down turned over or whatever) You guys can use anything you want if you're not trying to use the chair
Make a poll including some old Braille series like Skate everything, worst boards at the park, etc., maybe newer viewers haven't seen those past videos yet
I lost my eye to cancer when i was a kid and from my experience skating its harder to learn tricks with one eye but once i have them its not as big of an issue anymore. Once i have the muscle memory its not bad
I'm up in the OR. If I lived closer I'd totally intern for ya Gabe. A lot of Jamba runs so people can finally get their juice prizes! Imagine all the Dad jokes we could write just to get under Nigel's skin! I was also a maintenance technician so you just point me to the tools and what needs fixed, I'd be all over it.
You should get a bunch of those martial art school break boards that are real easy to break, and try to jump a skateboard into them and break them, but wear pads for that one.
You should do a series called pinks. Everyone builds a board. People can challenge each other at any moment and winner gets both boards. Champ is one who has the most boards after set time…. It would be funny watching people do things like a persistence, and Gabe walk in a challenge them. Would be strategy and people may watch to see if a pinks battle happens…. Could even print pink Braille boards for it so skaters don’t risk their main board.
hi braille i saw a vid of john hill and it was about the sk8 mafia mini board and i was think that you guys should see how it feels and how confertible it is
You should do a blind ref game of skate. Where they have to guess if the trick has been landed and if they say yeah (even if it wasn’t) the opponent has to do the attempted trick. And if the blind ref says it wasn’t (even if it was) the turn changes.
Game of skate where everytime you get a letter, you have to add another deck to the setup (so you end up with 2,3 and 4 decks thick), maybe that would be better in reverse, start off with 4 decks and everytime you get a letter, you remove one deck so it gets easier, probably more fair that way
Video Idea: Game of Snake Skate • Have each person skate behind eachother in a straight line. • 1st person sets the trick like normal. •2nd person must do the same trick, but with no time to setup their feet to the board. •3rd person following the 2nd does the same trick and so on. Its like a giant snake, telephone, skate game. I just made this up on the fly right now..hope it isnt too confusing.
I mentioned it in a live stream, night vision game of skate! Reach out to a company to see if they would lend you some goggles for a sponsored video, maybe Nigel has some military contacts? Also have you done a third person view game of skate? As in someone films the skater as you would for a video, and it's live streamed to a set of vr goggles.
I've suggest this before it's called PERFECTION GAME OF SKATE. Whatever trick you set if the next person does the trick better than you you get the letter
Rent out a Skate BNB from airbnb...so many in southern California. Just have a vacation..rent a huge house..private skatepark...enjoy life. That would be a great video
1) Can you try to do one shoe game of skate, like with one bare foot and one with shoe? I think it would be also annoying to do, but still as a concept. 2) Also you can try hands tight game of skate, like your hands should be tighted to the body, or wear shirt but do not put hands into hands holes in shirt, as you know we help ourself to ollie with hands. Please, try.
"If you have pirates in your city, let me know" I live in Tampa, Florida. Our NFL team is the Buccaneers, pirates. Tons of our schools are 'the pirates', and we have an annual celebration called Gasparilla, which is heavily pirate themed. Yeah, my city has pirates. XD
@@brailleskateboarding yeah, it's a cool and pretty logical theory but they did it because they actually lost an eye lol. I also was taught that was the reason, though! 😂
Skatepark etiquette and remember homies Halloween is coming up. Costume skate, braille house ghost. Game of skate into a bunch of candy. The content is limitless.
For those who are skeptical I have a lazy eye and I can confirm sports are slightly harder to play w/ no depth perception and I really noticed a difference post op... before my eye started drifting again but at least now I can kind of control it
- Skate while wearing a human bubble soccer - Skate, if you mess up you get paintballed - First to land a collection of tricks wins (think gun game from cod) - Skate with ankle weight added with every mistake
lost my vision in one eye at 15 from a paintball pretty much quit skating at the same time still got a deck tho lol it gets really funny when you try to play ping pong you guys should try that out lol
Yo Aaron, i’m a newbie skateboarder, i’m watching your old tutorial clips and those are great 😅. But i have a question, how do i balance my self on a board? Should i loosen or tighten the track for balance? Also im 80kg, i’m not too sure if that’s the problem why it’s hard for me to balance 😢. Anyways thanks for these wonderful videos 😊
to try and help your balance you could take the trucks off your deck and try and balance on the deck on a bottle of water. Like a balance board type thing
With 5300+ videos on the channel, I can understand how coming up with new ideas is a challenge. I legit sat and thought for a half an hour. I got nothing that hasn't been done. I will say my favorite vids are when the team just jams a spot. Be it at the braille house, a park or the rare Braille street missions.
just a chill vibe video from time to time hits the spot
We need some more Braille street spot videos for sure!!!
My favorite is skate wars, where they get random stuff from stores and skate it
Food for thought. Bring back the skate video duels. Where each skater picks a videographer and camera, then they put a part together. I haven’t seen one in a couple of months, yet they were very interesting and entertaining videos.

Keep up the great work Braille fam! You guys bring constant entertainment and motivation to my life and many others!
Yoo can we bring back "hardcore mode" games of skate? Love those! Glad to see everyone doing well🙏👊
If y'all miss an upload, we know it's because Nigel finally buried Gabe under the vert ramp
I would love to see y’all making new obstacles to skate again. Just letting the guys in the Braille park do whatever and make cool obstacles. You did one with JD and that video was amazing!!

Handcuffed behind your back game of skate , you fall , it’s going to hurt so you have to make sure you know you can land the trick .
Or Straight Jacket. 😂
@@himebaughchris4026 they did straightjackets a while back
They already did both
Yeah, trying to think of something new is tough!
@@brailleskateboardinggame of skate on 3 wheels or less

Maybe its been done over the years but i've always wanted to see a no nose deck GoS or a no tail deck GoS
Awesome to see you participate gabe!
Thank you guys for curing my boredom with your vids ❤💪🏼
In the dark game of skate. Gabe films in night vision
Love all the crazy stuff you guys do and come up with(it's like a science experiment with skateboarding 😎👌 congrats ice king on the win, weirdness is your Forte 👏 love braille ❤
I’m blind in 1 eye so it’s cool to see people skate how I skate all the time😹
Same xD
My dad lost his left eye when he was a kid, I know it wasn't easy going through life with only one eye but he accomplished a lot in his life
You should do a dark room game of skate, where you have to start in a bright room and then immediately go into a dim lit room and try to do tricks. Almost like dizzy skate, but when your eyes are adjusting to the light.
I got a new drinking game take a shot for every time gabe says he can’t see or how hard the game is 😂
I know y’all did it before, but another game of skate in crocs would be fun to watch
Braille is my favorite skating channel
LOVE this!

JD is quickly becoming my favorite member, who else agrees?

Hey Gabe, how about hands tied behind the back game of skate. Love the videos brother.
hi braille i saw a vid of john hill and it was about the sk8 mafia mini board and i was think that you guys should see how it feels and how confertible it is
i remeber this channel! you guys are my nine year old hero! thank you!
welcome back
As someone with only one correctly functioning eye, this is absolutely hilarious, and extremely gratifying
the ending no one expected!
You should do a blind ref game of skate. Where they have to guess if the trick has been landed and if they say yeah (even if it wasn’t) the opponent has to do the attempted trick. And if the blind ref says it wasn’t (even if it was) the turn changes.
"I don't know why it is hard, but it is like you are missing half your sight. Oh that makes sense."
Do a Day in A Life for each Braille member!
My friend has 1 eye and skates. He is insane and does it all with only 1 eye
It's interesting that your dominant eye and stance skating are in direct correlation- you all had it on the back eye to the direction you were skating
1:22 Gabe missed this one: "so you're a pirate of the Cari-peein?"
Reminds me of the old SNL skit called "Mr. No Depth Perception". 😁
Game of skate where everytime you get a letter, you have to add another deck to the setup (so you end up with 2,3 and 4 decks thick), maybe that would be better in reverse, start off with 4 decks and everytime you get a letter, you remove one deck so it gets easier, probably more fair that way
I skate like this every day lol you get used to it pretty quick😅 sooner or later I’ll need you guys to teach me how to skate blind
Yall need to review Christian Flores UNBREAKABLE shoelaces! It's right up yalls alley with breaking everything 😂
Video Idea: Game of Snake Skate
• Have each person skate behind eachother in a straight line.
• 1st person sets the trick like normal.
•2nd person must do the same trick, but with no time to setup their feet to the board.
•3rd person following the 2nd does the same trick and so on.
Its like a giant snake, telephone, skate game. I just made this up on the fly right now..hope it isnt too confusing.
You guys should do laying down glasses/lazy glasses game of skate
I mentioned it in a live stream, night vision game of skate! Reach out to a company to see if they would lend you some goggles for a sponsored video, maybe Nigel has some military contacts?
Also have you done a third person view game of skate? As in someone films the skater as you would for a video, and it's live streamed to a set of vr goggles.
Rrrrrrrr!!! Matey!!!!! I have one bad eye that gives me bad depth perception so I can relate. I will absolutely intern for gabe cruz the goat lol
You guys should try dizzy game of skate on the office chair spin before every trick lol maybe
when I was skating regularly, this is how I skated. I am actually blind in my left eye. a big part of it is how perception of balance.
Wow
Game of skate with the trucks on backwards, ive always wondered what that would look like
Gabe you should consider getting a Monical
VL SKATES says that this is a very advanced game of skate on his video about advanced tricks
Poor Gabe I bet he went home sore af that day 😂😂😂.
Interesting fact about pirate patches💯👍🤔
Once again sand down 2 skate boards and see which one does best ! One being a braille the other being a cheap one
They have done that multiple times
I've suggest this before it's called PERFECTION GAME OF SKATE. Whatever trick you set if the next person does the trick better than you you get the letter
Rent out a Skate BNB from airbnb...so many in southern California. Just have a vacation..rent a huge house..private skatepark...enjoy life. That would be a great video
For Gabe: What do you call two pirates who fall in love?
Soul mateys
1) Can you try to do one shoe game of skate, like with one bare foot and one with shoe? I think it would be also annoying to do, but still as a concept. 2) Also you can try hands tight game of skate, like your hands should be tighted to the body, or wear shirt but do not put hands into hands holes in shirt, as you know we help ourself to ollie with hands. Please, try.
When people figured out you could close your worst eye to see better outta your better one... They designed that patch..
As a fashion statement, then wearing them to long and talking them off made that one eye blind..
Video Idea: Floor is Lava/Skate Roulette. Draw 3 sets of cards. Each person must incorporate those tricks into their runs.
Custom spot challenge. Best created obstacle wins. Team vote 🗳
The late pink eye joke reaction 😂
"If you have pirates in your city, let me know" I live in Tampa, Florida. Our NFL team is the Buccaneers, pirates. Tons of our schools are 'the pirates', and we have an annual celebration called Gasparilla, which is heavily pirate themed. Yeah, my city has pirates. XD
Gabe's pink patch is such an eye soar.
Gabe has Pinkeye. 😂
I have no depth perception because I messed up my left eye walking into a rabbit ear antenna as a kid, this is how I skate daily
I left this long comment with an idea for a series of videos and TH-cam deleted it 😢
Dang it TH-cam. You can always email it to contact@brailleskateboarding.com
@@brailleskateboarding ok I sent an email thank youuu
That's not why pirates wear eyepatches, that's a myth.
Really?
@@brailleskateboarding yeah, it's a cool and pretty logical theory but they did it because they actually lost an eye lol. I also was taught that was the reason, though! 😂
Skatepark etiquette and remember homies Halloween is coming up. Costume skate, braille house ghost. Game of skate into a bunch of candy. The content is limitless.
When dad jokes transformed into Gabe jokes? I've missed that moment 😁
So now you know how it is for me I am a zero-depth seeing skater
this is interesting game of skate Braille
As a person who only sees with one eye at a time, I have developed my own depth perception. I can drive and play sports.
2:47 it will initially make a difference but once you get to avoid thinking about it you'll see it doesn't make a huge impact.
Gabe! Quick, do a urban street game of skate w various team memebers before Aaron sees!
Sorry to spam but a my Favorite video was Battle Boards, an idea to bring back for a whole series!
For those who are skeptical I have a lazy eye and I can confirm sports are slightly harder to play w/ no depth perception and I really noticed a difference post op... before my eye started drifting again but at least now I can kind of control it
Y’all should collab with blind skaters
Love y’all , bye ❤️
- Skate while wearing a human bubble soccer
- Skate, if you mess up you get paintballed
- First to land a collection of tricks wins (think gun game from cod)
- Skate with ankle weight added with every mistake
lost my vision in one eye at 15 from a paintball pretty much quit skating at the same time still got a deck tho lol it gets really funny when you try to play ping pong you guys should try that out lol
My guy didn't just straight up say he's runnin out of eyedeas and NOT get a bombastic side eye from Nigel...
No arrrrrrguing, this was a great video

I got pirates in my home... The dvd
feel like Rick should of had his on his other eye. If you ride regular have it on ya left if goofy have on right. maybe ... idrk
Look up Ollie flaps.. the like 8 bucks a piece or something They don't come in black but whatever. They protect your shoes while skateboarding.
gabe with the piercings in clean
pop shop, switchback, backflip 🤔
What about no knees game of skate? Wrap some thick cardboard around one of both knees so the leg is held straight
I love this !
I’m completely blind in my left eye and LOVE TO SKATE (videos on our channel)
I like sk8 also 🤣🤙🏼🛹
Where did Chris go?
I bet Gabe scheduled an eye exam after recording this video.
Can we do more street sessions, those are awesome!
don't know if it will impact yalls ability to skate, but what if you skate with no hearing by wearing noise canceling headphones
Ricky: REBATE!!!!!!!!!
Give yourselves a break and go to a park enjoy the weather and play a mad game of football amongst yourselves
Gabe, you want an intern that can varial flip on command? Buy that ticket my boy and I’ll be there
You know what, I kinda feel like this channel has been missin some ALL TERRAIN lately
what about a step up only game of skate? thatd be cool. or if you did more hill bombing videos.
