so, if you and nigel didnt know, who did? im just sad that AARON is gonna be able to do this again. he is gonna get another team, to take yalls places, and spend another decade working people to the bone be for he dismantles the park and probably buys another house. hearing how young the people are that actually watch braille. alll this stuff is gonna miss them.

[@elijahreed7839]

​@@T_1nefrom what i understand he donated the property to scientology. Just learned about all this rn 😢

[@oddmushasmr]

@@T_1ne He made a video where he explained that they had to vacate the warehouse on short notice after a few months of trying to come up with some kind of arrangement. Not sure why they had to go, maybe they couldn't afford it any longer. So they just destroyed the skatepark to get the place empty and avoid having to pay rent till October 2026, if I understood correctly. No one (Ricky, Nigel, etc) was told it was getting destroyed. Also, allegedly a lot of Braille money went to Scientology, which Aaron is a member of, so his intentions with the company and the people in it were likely questionable from the beginning.

[@tribeval]

@@T_1ne he's always been a scientologist loon, and it turned out he gave basically all of the money Braille ever made, to the cult. Never paying anyone from the channel for numerous guest spots or the labor involved.

[@_o.O__]

everyone loves to be poetic but when is the time to pay the rent everyone stops being gangsta xD I would love a Million dollar car without paying for it.. that's the overall vibe im getting here.. even if AK is a billionaire why should he pay for a park that even when it was in full use was probably barely a profit.. I wouldn't...

[@DrBdan8]

​@@_o.O__ Given how much Aaron talks about wanting to grow skateboarding, as long as the park wasn't an absolute money pit and Braille overall was profitable he could still run the park to give people somewhere to skate. Its not unheard of for businesses to run part of the business at a loss because it provides an overall net benefit (e.g video game companies sell consoles at or below cost because they make more money selling games on online subscriptions). That said, I have no idea about the financials of Braille.

My son and I watched Braille religiously, for atleast a couple years. He was getting into skating and Braille was one of the main things we'd be watching when we put on KZbin. We watched the video Aaron posted last night, and I was a shocker. We hadn't watched Braille in awhile, but wasnt expecting this. It was sad seeing the Braille house getting demolished, but it wasnt till watching this video that I got a little tore up. Maybe its because my kiddo is at his aunts house and I alone lol, but definitely choked up a few times just watching Ricky riminess. Once it started hitting the rail...that got me bro...that got me.

To be fair, Braille is still really small. Aaron is really the only “people at the top”. I just think he’s lost sight of what made braille what it is/was in the golden days. I have no issue with them doing what they need to do letting go of the warehouse, it’s just how he has approached it that’s honestly a bit disheartening. I also do believe he kept at least some of the boards at his home if I’m not mistaken.

[@emittg]

Hey rick. I watched braille all the way from the time I was in 6th grade thinking about getting into skating to now being done with my freshman year of college and skating almost every day. I watched Braille grow and thrive. I am so sorry that Aaron did not inform you about the Braille House, but I am glad you got to go back one final time. I never got to skate the braillehouse but it is still very emotional for me to see my childhood memories all wiped out in a day. Just know that the skate community respects all that you have done for Braille, and that we support you no matter what you choose to do in the future. I would love to see the crew possibly form a new group where you guys post what YOU want when YOU want. I guarantee you that if you guys formed a new channel dedicated to just doing you guys, 95% of the brailleArmy would follow. Sad to see it end this way. Love you brother. Thank you for this video.

I'd love to see you, Uzi, JD, Gabe, Nigel, Glo, Mo, heck maybe even McNugg, everyone, skate together again sometime. Aaron created a great stepping stone, but he really changed a lot as a person. After reading into all of this, it's a shame he didn't set his priorities straight towards his company and employees. Feel for you man.

[@PsypherKanon]

much love ricky! I love you and braille! keep strong. braille house might be down for now but you're all strong af. I hope the best for you and everyone in braille! GO GET THEM

[@d0mm137]

You can really tell Rick has never been in it for money or fame, but just to Sk8..

[@rickyglaser]

thanks

[@d0mm137]

No thanks necessary! Thank you! You were the reason I watched brail. Your unconventional skating and love for it is truly entertaining! Good luck in the future!

[@Tonye80085]

Rick like sk8

[@Fried52qc]

​@@Tonye80085 Big Rick is always there just for the tricks ❤️❤️

[@NineteenEighty8]

Hes definitely in it for money and fame... hes constantly using braille in his titles to gain views. Stop.

[@danielandrassy407]

Good man you did that final goodbye

[@jee86]

Great job getting that last session in Rick. As weird as it sounds, you've given at least one random internet stranger some closure. Can't wait to see what's coming up for you, dude. Great editing by the way. The music and the last clip of you at the Braille house really hit me in the feels... and I know I'm not the only one. Take care of yourself.

[@Stickiestboi]

No big speeches, no bullcrap. This was the real closure that park needed. RIP Braille.

[@anthonydinatale9904]

I live in RI, just started skating 1 year ago. Discovered Ricky and Braille back then and really helped me get started. This is so heartbreaking to watch!

[@streamylc]

Lol Ricky throwing out a btter montage/goodbye that the braille channel itself 😂 (I coincidentally just finished watching the "goodbye braillehouse" video.... good timing

[@oleksiistri8429]

TRUE!

[@micro12354]

this video made me so emotional even more so then the braille one itself did thank you so much ricky this is the closure we needed!

[@josephroberts3964]

Damn rick, this hits hard. I have the og braille shoes, many boards and have seen all of the videos. I cant say enough how much you contributed. I hope you find the outlet you deserve, dont stop alot of us are counting on you

[@oleksiistri8429]

Yep, Rick is one of the best skaters and hard workers on a Braille team

[@no9-5]

That's mad, I didnt feel anything until I saw the YMiWSi boards dumped on the floor, rip.

[@tommj4365]

Sweet video, so glad you went out there for all us fans to get another look

[@Chocalateshake]

That sesh got me choked up

it is garbage, except for the hardware

[@robinthebobin6537]

So sad to see. I've never actually been a skateboarder, but watched Braille videos several times a week as a kid growing up in the UK. I remember them just being such a great time to watch, like a hangout with mates - and that's probably because of the authentic friendship between all you guys. I'm 21 now, and I'll admit I've not watched Braille or much skateboarding content for a few years. To see how Braille has crumbled, all due to the one guy who started it in the first place, is beyond sad. I can't imagine how it must feel for you guys

[@Mr.Plant1994]

you did streams here late at night alone because you had nothing better to do, and it made those early streams awesome! Thanks for resharing the memories rickster!

[@andrewchaffee3133]

Who's cutting all the onions 😭

[@deathbob091]

its crazy how fast this all was. it feels like just a few weeks ago the house just went up. glad you got one last sesh in for every one who couldnt rick. no one tells us when the good times are

[@BobWeaver3000]

great job Xenu

[@saizero0433]

it was a great "goodbye". I wish there was a video like this with all the crew in the hall, but you're awesome for doing it yourself

[@straightouttheshed]

Despite falling away from braille in these past few years, it was comorting to see you guys in my feed. I could feel the tension in some videos and the struggle to stay relevant was always present despite you guys always had fun, always inspired. Its sad to see the park go but we remain the same, we still are skaters and always will be. To bigger and better things, to higher and prosperous ground. Thank you for everything youve done with braille ricky, we appreciate you

[@davidal-attar6712]

Thanks

[@rickyglaser]

Thanks for the support!

[@fadedmatttt]

I wouldn't leave any of those boards behind man the memories fr sucks to see

[@TheAquabears]

It's likely all the property of Braille, man. Unless and until it's thrown in a dumpster it's still company property and just walking off with it would be theft.

[@fadedmatttt]

@@TheAquabears i wasn't saying like take it I meant it like if they are just leaving them there or throwing them away they should let some of the members take them instead of throwing away all the boards that were in many videos

[@TheAquabears]

@@fadedmatttt The fact that Kyro didn't even bother to is pretty telling. That pile of abandoned dreams surrounded by trash and wreckage is the perfect metaphor for what braille itself has become.

[@fadedmatttt]

@@TheAquabears yes bro them not taking care of what they can salvage or keep for memorabilia they should and Aaron said that Braille isn't ending but all those boards are apart of what Braille is and seeing the team not get the chance or say in any of it sucks but hey what can you do

[@TheKefChannel]

big love from norway. We love you bro

[@klaytonsmyke6636]

I don't even skate but I watched all the videos. What happened? This makes me very sad to see after all the years of laughs and smiles you all put on my face to get through some very hard times😢😢

[@floppy_sock613]

Yo rick I like you but never dug braille but honestly I've worked for businesses that I put my life into that just got tore away so I get this hurt man. You're a class act

[@MAYERMAKES]

I made two you make it we skate it things. (Transparent trucks and hardest wheels). Seeing how the skaters on the team were actually treated is horrible. I hope we get dime more real info from the crew about what happened backstage.

[@rickyglaser]

damn, when im live ur welcome to ask me anything

[@ZayProdigy]

It all started when mcnugg left😔

[@ShawnxEdge]

Actually it all really started when Aaron left for 2 years to train for his new fancy leadership roll. I bet this was a plan all along.

[@SoapworthyProductions]

It’s wild that Aaron didn’t have a final session at the park and invite all former members of the team, WILD!!!! Looks like Mogely, Gabe, Uzi and you made the right move leaving before the ship sunk

[@nostalgic_pokemon_memories]

shows he dont really care

[@quentinkaalekahi2216]

Can't invite all tbh, since theirs alot of drama. But I do wish their was a final session

[@tomglen1783]

He cashed out and left.

[@stephenthedude4383]

​@@quentinkaalekahi2216 even gabe left? What happened?

[@SoapworthyProductions]

@@stephenthedude4383 yeah Gabe left about 2 months ago. He had a farewell video

[@JamieEmiya]

that last sesh on the rail followed by you leaving for the last time just to open the door and everything is back like it was never destroyed got me right in gut man so many great memories of you and the bois there 🥲💖

[@ErkalEtruria]

Always a pleasure to hear from you. You make me sweat with how much time and effort you put into things. Thank you for this video. You know it was very much needed.

[@QuantumAssassin]

You're telling me no one could have put those ramps to use? It is nuts they are just thrown in the trash when many people could have given them a home.

[@TheGuitarsquatch]

I had a dream about a week ago that had Gabe announcing a new channel with all of the Braille boys. I guess it was kind of a premonition of the end.

[@jeff61177]

I hope Scientology can buy some nice sturdy chains for their kids with the money they get from selling off the Braille House. Maybe AARon Hubbard will get to meet Xenu and teach him to kick flip? FFS. What is even going on? Ricky, you and the boys should get Gabe and make your own channel. You guys would kill it.

[@wooviee]

His funding probably dried up because he wasn't bringing in enough people to the cult.

[@marioelburro1492]

​@wooviee and ain't it like a heavy sin in that group to not bring in/mention it to the public?

[@the_graves_boys]

i was a middle school kid struggling with self confidence and friends and exercise when i first found Braille. a few weeks later i got myself my first skateboard and spent a lot of time of the next 2 years just working on getting stable on it, it was my primary method of transportation. its still alive, its got a shark on the deck, and it was one of the things that really helped me through that time where getting friends in a bad school was so so difficult. i ended up learning to ollie and bomb down small hills because it made it easier to get around thank you for those times.

[@GreenLeavesGrower]

nigel , rick , JD , mogley etc should form their own team and channel

[@flippinbirds6193]

Did Derek know this was all happening? Dude was insanely awkward and seemed genuinely shocked to see you

[@RBrop]

I could be wrong but my impression was that nobody knew Ricky was coming and Ricky had no idea if anybody would be there. Darek was 100% shocked to see Ricky. I'm definitely going to watch this again and see.

[@Agapelovestudio]

No they knew it was comming it just ended up happing sooner than they thought Derek had been helping with the tar down That's why I don't understand why Nigel's so mad.He knew it was coming because he helped set up the ramps to have a place to go

[@youtube.commentator]

I've watched this channel since before the braille house was even an idea.. and they didn't even have a final skate session.......
