Thank you Zack. You're inspiring a whole heck of people into rogue skatepark building

[@cameronwilliams-fn8uv]

So happy to see more diy videos! That are so cool! Keep up the good work 👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@ZackDowdy]

more DIY in 2024!

[@BeardedDante]

I love diy spot builds, it’s asmr for me

[@spencernuzzi]

I got some ledge and banked ledge ideas we gotta add in!

[@ZackDowdy]

We need to do it!!

[@SoapworthyProductions]

As I come to the end of this video, I must say this is the most entertaining video I’ve seen so far on your channel! Yes, your skating videos are filled with *BADASSERY* but this was so intriguing. Feel like I learned a lot!

[@lordsofthewildwood7553]

Glad you picked this series up again. Really cool that the spot is still there for you.

[@TheAnimeist]

You are such a good beast! Don't forget as a video idea to have a montage of you skating all your DIY spots/obstacles.

[@DJHalfHat]

This is a super kool series. I'm not a skater or BMX rider, but I'm sure I'm sure I speak for most when I say. I wish we had a video series like this for some of the famous/popular city sactioned skate spots

[@gregridd]

I love this build !

[@Kyewolff]

Man these are so cool! thanks for sharing, a little tip I use is, if you get your jigsaw or sawzal and take the blade out, and run it on your form work, it acts as a vibrator and sinks the rocks down, so it’s so much easier and quicker for that final float

[@SoapworthyProductions]

Supreme Spot Shaper! Dowdy is killing it by fixing and building spots 🙌🏼

[@bige2867]

Really cool, can't wait to see more of this diy series!

[@banshee1322]

It’s funny, I just discovered your channel last week from these ditch diy videos. A year later the series is back!

[@WBonni23]

love the diy ditch

[@myrmidonprogress5423]

This is dope. Keep up the good work

[@pitt9955]

[@skatedad9794]

[@Thisbajabug]

love the DIY video's keep up the great work..

[@Epixstuff249]

Bro i subscribed a couple days ago and saw the diy skatepark series and hoped that it would start up again, and this comes out. I’m so happy dude.

[@willusionist]

The fact that you have two large functional walls on each side means you could probably make a Halfpipe out of this spot. You would only have to build the lower part of transition on each side. It might be impossible to maintain enough speed from one side to another though.

[@scradlyhill]

@ZackDowdy From watchin ur videos made me go out and try building my own spot . got really ambitious and made a bank to ledge to bank for my first project and it turned out great . I didnt pick a good spot to do it since i tried adding it into our park here but the city came and removed it within a week aha but now i know i can do it (with out much skilll) and ill only get better and to pick a better spot ! aha

[@ZackDowdy]

LOVE IT!

[@scradlyhill]

Too bad u cant reply with a vid or pic id show u my work aha

[@lancelovecraft5913]

Love the DIY content

[@FORANWFS]

Love a good dowdy diy video ,, I dunno if all the people that get to skate these or have them in their local area appreciate them,as much as they should,especially if they never went out of their way to build something themselves

[@mu7f4K_ABi]

hell yeah!

[@thomaskallinens]

FYI: When doing concrete in forms you should remove the forms asap so they are easier to remove and so the concrete has less chance of cracking.

[@ryanrowe1975]

So cool

[@Dutch800]

One of your best videos 🤟

[@angebomb]

That echo off the walls at the end got me pretty hyped 🔥

[@HectorFlores-st1et]

For metal round grinding you could grind a pill shaped hole on the cylinder in which a long bolt could fit through you could so you could tighten a nut then put pre drills in the plywood pre drills wide enough to fit the nut and bolt while also giving shape for another nut for he long enough bolt which then you could place concrete around in the mold. The gap of pre drills and completely through drilling have to be spaced out enough the the percentage of it breaking is low. You could get 2x4 or 4x4 with spacers.

[@SmokeSeshCentral]

sick asf

[@rodneyvonC]

Big believer in gatekeeping, only way to have cool shit these days dowdy

[@SmokeSeshCentral]

make a ledge ???

[@thatGUYbehindthemask]

[@joaolopes792]

[@tazfish3639]

That kick your sick perfect for my goofy style

[@dylonlamb1090]

Keep doing this content

[@thejoe_snotbombsskateboarding]

Great work. We have a DIY over here in upstate NY. Hmu if you ever this way. Keep rippin!

[@charleskrueger7328]

Good job man! I'm wanting to get a spot again.DIY or DIE.

[@GianPaoloCassalins]

bro thanks for share this content

[@LSZ71F4Ucorsair]

the audio quality is very well leveled.

[@thestonedandstripped]

I got the used coping from MLK park repair that started today. Putting in the new...i got the old that is still usable😮

[@ZackDowdy]

Epic, I'm going to see if there's any left!

[@thestonedandstripped]

@@ZackDowdy There is some good coping left. The repair guys told me to tell you to ask them....they got it stashed.

[@Burn77oas7]

How often does that cannal flood? Any wood obstacles won't last a year.

[@MattPiick]

Was that a curved pool coping i see? Adding to the mini?

[@scottkeenan6339]

That's how the Pros do it 💥🤙

[@ZackDowdy]

My guy!

[@viracocha03]

Come to Nova Scotia and build me a "illegal" DIY, please !!

[@scradlyhill]

@ZackDowdy showing you how to do it ur self dont be discouraged get out there and try it out ull be surprised on what u can accomplish !!

[@pauliewalnuts5241]

one man crew 👷‍♂️

[@ZackDowdy]

DIY!

[@elements5845]

lil tip instead up lifting the bags to mix it" back breaking stuff" cut it open with the shovel then scoop it with the shovel

[@elements5845]

just saw at 23 min you did it lol shouldve watched the whole vid first lol great video \

[@ZackDowdy]

@@elements5845 You're right though, should have done that the whole time. I was trying to be all fast.

[@DIARRHEA-PANIC]

After cleaning up that cut for the city... They're just gonna come flick your little pimple up the wall 😅

[@CodyKhaoz]

Fuck yea!!! 🎉🎉🎉

[@CodyKhaoz]

Love this series!

[@chasedanger9734]

As a concrete form carpenter... that was very hard to watch.

[@laphinlesliechan7067]

Can i use mud and cover concrete to build diy ramp?

[@ZackDowdy]

You'll need stronger fill then just mud otherwise the concrete will crack & not really bond together.

[@paintballagile]

Why does this remind me of ditches in Oside

[@dredORDER666]

NOICE

[@MAADloftrollers.]

Did this in my home town at a abandoned car wash , needless to say they leveled it and put a 711 there in the same spot😭

[@ChristoferKraft]

Mashmellow makes the best floats. Crk.

[@tylerida273]

There's at least 1 carpenter who skates that might watch this I can think of. 🤔

[@archie_bol8153]

Love the idea but. But puddles would put me off.

[@bleucan2666]

i know that cloud formation.

[@Aromapablo]

This is what happenes when you watch tony hawk foundation videos 😂😅

[@marketingmasters3550]

The more the population grows the more cities will need skateparks. Keep pushing the clowns that run the towns to build them because they will gladly build a billion dollar soccer field that nobody uses over a skatepark.

[@COACTUSFECI75]

oh ilike such work... gimme a job and we build together

[@xMrPaintxx]

Only thing he didnt do was anchor it into the wall he built on the side of... A few pieces of rebar and rotary impact drill is all he would have needed and it would have been ’permanent' - oh well, learn as you go.

[@FlexicoWyoming]

Hard

[@CloudSeedz]

“Not in my nice clothes”

[@Bl00DmixedWithPoison]

you should take these videos to one of your local investors around town(theres always investors) and see about possibly making a skate park because you have the energy but there are things about this that are boarder unethical and of course the legality behind it. i wish best of luck of course but this doesnt read very well

[@Bl00DmixedWithPoison]

hey i just have to say man, i love what youre doing ofc but youre posting it as youre doing it and the reason most of the previous spots were sanctioned is because of the mystery around them. not many people were arrested for doing crimes

[@1DK72]

Not so secret anymore

[@yadadameanie]

I friking hate litter bugs.pick ur trash

[@galvanizedgnome]

Carhartt is not cool

[@njits1017]

You are not cool

[@quackywhackityphillyb.3005]

My bank account is cool when i dont spend 200 dollars on a pant
