Exploring Crust in Detroit with OJ Wheels | The Earthers

Detroit has given the world a lot of great things, like Motown, techno, and the modern assembly line. Its contributions to skating haven’t been quite as grandiose, but that doesn’t mean that there’s a lack of skate culture in Detroit. We sent the crew and some OJ Wheels guests to check it out for themselves. Lots of bondo and patience were necessary for this one, but if there’s one thing the Earthers are it’s resourceful.

Crust level so high, you can hear it so loud in every clip. I'd barely be able to even roll in some of these spots, mad respect for these guys!

[@734wheeler5]

Michigan isn’t no joke to skate lol

[@gregpnavarro]

Nothing better than seeing homies use their local resources.
The roll up for the ender was scarier than the drop. Insane.

[@evanthomas92]

I love these google earther videos so much I just wish they were longer

[@motochris11]

Yes!! Moodymann da obvious choice for a 313 edit

[@spaceyourface420]

[@subledger]

detroit is super under rated for skating, but yea the crust is no joke.

[@Quay1586]

[@apedog999]

But are they really finding these spots on google earth? Seems like quite a few Detroit staples in here with google earth b roll thrown in.

[@jakekeenan426]

This one kinda highlighted how Detroit has restored some of these unskatable spots. Not saying all of these spots are new by any means ✌🏼

[@apedog999]

@@jakekeenan426 word really enjoyed this. also really like the concept of the google earth thing would be cool if they used a less misleading premies. I'm all for watching restored spot videos haha just was expecting something different with the Earthers title

[@DaytonJoey]

Dude with the beard is good!!!

[@drewscagnetti6225]

The D - #AlProfit

[@yutoad]

incomparable to the basically park ground street spots from the west coast, the cuttier the better imo

[@mattstevenson1334]

Hart plaza is cool but rough for sure

[@goodnight3663]

4:56 where is that?

[@jaapendebonenstaak]

[@tylerpersichini]

These spots were obviously crusty but also very interesting. Detroit skateboarding seems sick.

[@EvanDrinkwater]

[@Rufusdos]

Moodyman is from Detroit?

[@katyhavengal5038]

[@734wheeler5]
