    I dont skate anymore but spent every waking minute on my board from the age of 5 till 16. wasnt well off growing up but had enough to get a board every christmas. by the end of the year my board wasnt pretty. my friend on the other hand was less fortunate than I. I remember when we were 11, he had this pair of wheels for years they had such bad flat spots on them. this guy came up to my friend when we were at our local skate park and gave him a brand new set of wheels still in the plastic. he says " you need this more than I do ". what a great guy. This video made me relive that memory. I'm sure a few of these kids will cherish this memory. for some of us skating is all we have. I didnt escape with drugs. I used skating to cope with life. doing dangerous stairs and things that pumped my adrenaline. Its such a great escape. thanks for doing this for our community.

The reason I really need a board is because I couldn't really find my Metallica tickets but it turns out I wasn't even going to see Metallica.

    As a skateboarder, the skateboarding community thanks you. First off, supporting local skate shops by buying the lot. That includes boards that were sitting there for a long time. By doing that you made it possible for the shops to get new product and helped them financially. Also, skateboarders don’t get a good rep on the streets. Therefore parents don’t want their kids to skate because they feel it makes a negative effect on their life choices. By doing this and giving boards to kids, you are pretty much guaranteeing that they will ride their new decks. We need to get the scooter kids riding decks instead now! GJ

    I don't know your tour routes, but Garland, TX just opened the largest skatepark in Texas, and I believe the 6th largest in the country. This project started with $1M back in 2002 and has now been completed at around $20M. It's called The Boneyard. This development was done in a lower income community, but has people of all walks of life on the socioeconomic scale. The Boneyard has become a major regional attraction to help revitalize the community around it. I think this would be a cool spot for you to come visit for the skaters that keep the place beyond full every day, unless we hit a Texas snow storm which consists of 1/4 inch. There are other area skate parks to hope over to in other cities, but I think this one would be worth a visit. Been following you for a little bit, and would love to see you do your magic in blessing people around that skate park as well.

    Growing up a skateboarder my parents never understood why I went through so many shoes and decks. It definitely is pricy for a 13 year old every month to get new gear. This video lit me up man.

    That was the best video yet. Hopefully a lot of these kids will be more motivate to skate more. I remember pros giving out boards, making us fight for them as they tossed them to the crowd. It was like a highlight of your young life in that moment. So I’m sure these kids are stoked and will never forget this. I almost feel like you gave them all too many though. Hopefully they won’t take it for granted and will use them all or help their friends get started skating. But, it was a great idea and you made a lot of kids happy for sure. 🤙🤙🤙

    Being in a skate community is something I would wish upon everyone. Even on a competitive level it seems everyone is supporting each other and cheering for another person when they land a huge trick. Everytime I purchase a new deck (which I do once a year even though I do not really need to because the deck is always in a good shape), I go to my local skatepark and do my thing for a couple of hours noticing other people. Last time there was a kid shredding tricks that were too good for his age but his deck was a wreck (even had a part missing) so I gave him my old one. That is how I get rid of my old decks and the reactions always warm my heart.

I wish I could afford to do stuff like this , but as someone who took financial risk when I was in my 20s. Well lets just say in the end , and now almost 40 I got nothing to show for the financial risk I took 20 years ago haha. But everyday I try to make sure I grab my Plan:B or my Element Skateboard both with independent trucks , bones wheels and Spitfire or bones bearing. An just go for a crews , you know get in that zen moment. With know headphones , just let the sound of the wheels on whatever surface block out everything around me minus vehicles and pedrustrains of course ha. Man the freedom of skateboarding , the feeling of it is beautiful. So like seriously thank you , skate for life and well I love and only wear Vans skate shoes so Off the Wall for life ha.

He just bought a new Hockey deck about a week or two earlier. He did not feel right keeping the decks so he passed them on to other kids at the park that could use them. Your generosity is rubbing off! We need more people like you!
