Damn Zack someone Else hit it with a Skateboard before U....Not Cool....

[@Tommyskating]

Much love bro

[@wingdingdmetrius8025]

in the vid you wonder why there is water flowing. there was rainwater in the drainage ditch because the ground was already saturated from recent rain. none of the new rain could soak into the ground :)

[@StonedUnicornPersonManThing]

I discovered your channel with this whole build and holy hell I am super impressed! I wish I could still skate. I had to quit a few years ago cause my body was giving out and I was spending everyday in pain, this was when I was in my early 20s. Now I'm 29 and Ive been diagnosed with Ankylosing Spondylitis. Turns out all throught my youth, I was skateboarding with a genetic disease, that inflammimates my spinal areas and all I did all aggrevate it 100x, but I do not regret skateboarding. I am still heavily passionate about the sport, the scene, it all. Skateboarding lead me to many great places and people. I still look at my Enjoi setup (R.I.P Ben Raemers

As a refugee from the time before municpal skate parks, this DIY spot warms my heart.

Ngl all the added challenges with weather and stuff almost makes it more interesting. I’ve been invested in your project for a bit now and I don’t want it to end lol. Such a cool spot.

[@jescowan26]

add a broom holder as a final touch "keep it clean, keep it skate-able"

[@kristoffersonDM]

The Water makes the spot so special!!! Just like a Surfer waiting for the good Waves, and then have a blast!!!! Thanks Zack!!!! Building the community !!!

Please start wearing an N95 when you’re rub bricking/working with concrete! Silicosis is no joke, homie! Keep up the dope videos as always ❤

[@LaurenOliviArt]

Yes for reals …. 😅

[@mattc1012]

Silicosis is a problem related to occupational exposure. A few concrete projects throughout your life do not put you at serious risk.

[@jamslam406]

@@mattc1012since the pandemic, there are quite a few N95 “Professionals” out there saving the planet one mask at a time. 😂

[@brianmaietta]

Not wrong about being safe. But working in construction and having to deal with AQMD/EPA silicosis testing...you get more exposure sitting at the beach for an hour than you do working with concrete mixes for 3 months straight

i wonder how many generations of skaters will skate this. all the stuff i built is long gone because it was wood

[@Justin-k3e]

This reminds me of Tony Hawks waste land game for ps2 back in the day 🎉🎉🎉❤❤

[@PossumMedic]

Looking good! 🤘 edit: 28:44 - maybe adding a little angled lead-in on the side the water flows from would make it last longer and be easier than knocking out the back

[@EDDhoot]

Great job man! looks smooth, we used to have an obstacle just like this at my local park and it was my favourite part of it before they modified it a couple years back, love those transition grinds into the straight drop off and also popping into it like a ledge into crooks and 5.0s to fakie, man i miss that spot it was the most fun T-T

[@chris73brown]

Awesome. Was really lookin forward to this one of the finished diy qp. Yes, more diy vids. Theyre great. Thx

[@NinjaLifestyle]

NICE PROJECT DUDE!

A 40 minute dowdy video on DIY. 👍

[@DosezDaily]

Another rad video dude👍 you’re truly the Johnny Appleseed of skateboarding. Thanks man.

[@Warriordan44]

Cool spot hope to skate it sometime in the upcoming year or so..

[@henrythomas2547]

Another Great Video ! 🤘😆🤘❗

[@BeenBenner]

Been enjoying the videos. A cheap buy but so needed in DIY, is a chip brush. It will help apply your adhesive and bonding agent and also help clean your tools at the end of a job. Also using the mixing tray as your cleaning tray makes another tool multi use. Great work, now I need to get out and build!

I was going to mention the person that walked by . Sick video. Gets my hyped to c ur vibe and doing it right rather than rush . Keep up the movement

Thanks!

Excellent series of build vids , very enjoyable to watch , I’ve subscribed, looking forwards to you doing more , peace ✌️

[@mmxx97]

as someone who mixes mud for a living id suggest getting a small ho. works well with a small mudbox ur using to mix in

[@The_Sage_Library]

Your the only skater on youtube i enjoy watching. Seriously plz keep the vids coming!!! Much love dawgy

[@derekarmstrong1408]

That's beautiful, nice to see that you have a line thought out and can work the whole spot at once. Super inspiring!

[@ZackDowdy]

It's fun with more obstacles now!

[@bearwolffish]

Amazing job, love seeing what you did with the space. And to a high quality level in my opinion. Look forward to the next one's.

[@leifbennett1354]

Excellent work. But I want to build these at my local skatepark. It needs a 2 and 3 foot half pipe. Has space for these ramps around the outside.

[@neonpuke]

love this, man. inspirational for sure. ty

[@masso23]

DIY master bro. Looks so nice man💯

[@baileyjoy4564]

Loved this entire series. So excited for a possible season 2?!

[@ZackDowdy]

Yes!

[@yo1itz1mez1]

I'm living for this series!

[@d_ruggs]

i find it insane you just leave the stuff there when its flooding so much. at least put the crete on the ramp. rad videos, so awesome seeing someone do this, i feel inspired for some reason I also feel like this park will show up in a video game lol

[@LaurenOliviArt]

Right!!! This was the second time the rain messed his stuff up like wth😂

[@neonpuke]

it is a positive message. if you want something, get it. life is that simple. put in work and get that goal. you prove that time and again in these vids. definitely an inspiration. diy or die.

[@isaacgreenham1067]

this was sick, excited for whats to come!

[@jamess3718]

add a diy makeshift water collection system , let mother nature take care of the water from the rain

[@skrrtfranklin]

Bro that’s sick ! Cool video. You should look into a grout bag , would help with your clean lines !! Would probably save you time , look better , and can limit the amount of excess material!

[@TheOnlyEntertainmentEmpire]

Love the update always wanted to see one

It’s Great to see you making this ramp! Don’t put pressure on your self to upload buddy 🤙🏻

[@twissaunders7196]

A good tip that I learned from doing concrete school is if you have paper towels or something smooth wet it down and use it over the concrete and then it'll smooth out the concrete

[@monophonoise4548]

[@Luke139]

Those fisheye clips go hard

Hopefully this makes it in to some good skate parts. Would love to see it pop up here and there over the next few decades hahahaha. Great work dude. Shame mother nature didn't cooperate too much.

[@flowstateofmind]

Awesome project!

[@Hoosierdaddyjones812]

Great work 👏

[@jebb360]

Oi man I’ve found that instead of sweeping spots you can use a blower. I’ve got this battery powered electric makita blower. It’s awesome for blasting the floor around a spot or for clearing dust from rub bricking

[@tylerbryan2176]

LETS GOOO it’s gonna be there for years

Awesome vid bro I live in oside would love to skate it with ya sometime, u put in a lot of work! so rad

[@gregridd]

You need some wellington boots for that rain!

[@JackMittenn]

when it rains you should put your cement on the top of quarter pipe so it doesn’t get flooded. Have you thought about rendering the sides to close it up?

need to seal the sides with concrete or its gonna wash out. sick ass spot though my dude ! Keep shreddin !

[@pedrodelimamiranda]

This is so fucking cool man. Thanks a bunch

[@QueenMeat]

I'm seeing a lot of concrete but not a lot of reinforcement, wouldn't you want to put some rebar in the concrete to prevent fracturing? wouldn't cost a lot more. maybe I missed where you reinforced. Just recommend looking into some construction engineering principles and make sure you're using your product correctly. DIY doesn't mean hasty :3

We're going to need Ben Degros to come down and build with you.
