Zack, I don't know if you realize that you've unknowingly created a sub-genre of Skateboarding (spot making) and Binaural ASMR. Your videos are relaxing as fuck. Listening to someone go through internal dialogue and explain what and why they're doing something a certain way is ultimately very satisfying to watch and listen to. Keep it up.

You are trying to join two surfaces without using water, and that is the problem, it is essential that the surface where you apply the mortar is very moist, the water eliminates the dust and makes your mortar enter the pores of the surface, you will save on effort, material, money, time, listen to me, moisten the surfaces before applying mortar, if you use a wet sponge for the final finish then you already leave it fine. a hug from Basque territory

I'm always so jazzed when one of these videos pop up in the feed. I've been churning through your archive and I'm loving it. It's honestly taken a lot of the intimidation/fear out of concrete work.

[MattKulp]

These videos are some of my favorite on YouTube right now, looks like you could use a filmer or a buddy to lend a hand and take some of the labor off of yourself!

Dude, so cool you are doing this. I think sometimes discovering these spots and making them ridable is half the fun. Did this when I was in my teens with other skate buddies. Now I do it for new rock climbing areas in San Diego. Thanks for taking us along Zack. Enjoy your spot. You earned it.

Nobody else is willing to make the trek to build, next day 5 homies show up to skate 😅

[coulteryoung]

You were there by yourself doing all the grunt work but got homies for days to come test out the hard work you put in.

Man, I love your DIY builds. Not only does the skating look great, but just seeing the adventure of the build makes me feel like a kid again looking for wood scraps and places to skate. My son and I skated a DIY spot in Statesville NC a couple of weeks ago and it was a blast. After watching your videos I have a new appreciation of the amount of work it takes. You need to find some homies with a truck!

This looks sick, but also this spot looks like it was originally something like a storm water storage tank, so I'd recommend being careful around this spot if there is any rain forcasted, just so you make sure you don't get stuck in a flash flood

That’s the thing about skateboarding and being a skater it’s all about the mission, huge props for this 🔥

[slappomatthew]

nobody shows up to help build but once its ready to skate everyone shows up. sounds about right. lol

[bigdingus]

I deliver those water jugs for work. Climbing a mountain with one is crazy 🤘🤘 nice work

[mikevaseymusic]

Thanks for the great videos! If you're worried about the wildlife, be as loud as you can. not quiet. But obviously you might need quiet if there are houses anywhere nearby.

I was gonna say a few videos back that you should get some cheap little pickup. I had a Ranger years ago. It was good. I made a wooden front bumper for it.

[dansours]

This was so enjoyable to watch. I love how you share what you'd do differently & also how you fix things

[AncientEgo]

Hats off to you my friend for haulin' all those supplies up the mountain

[timecapsuleearth]
