John is one of the reasons I’m getting my first skateboard at the ripe old age of 30

The sad part about this park is that our city council hates it. They're all old and still have outdated views of skateboarding thinking they're only up to trouble. They want to scrap it and make it into tennis courts...that no one will use! Anyway, glad you came by, it's surreal to see you skate in my town!

Does anyone else appreciate how he syncs the music with, him landing the trick

Bruh that park is still better than my local

Back in the day 2001-2003 this park had a lot more obstacles and was always packed with skaters, first skatepark I went to. Cool to see it get some recognition.

That park is better than the one in my hometown. I'm legit gonna build my own at this point

when you're up so late for an exam that u get the John hill upload notif

The music sounded like in a disney film when the main character starts putting in work and turning their life around

suuuuuperb editing with the snares on the beat and the landing of the tricks. even the part with no snares and the failed attempts. brilliant john.

I Pray everyone who sees this is successful

Bro I feel you on that limbo. I was out of place for like 3 weeks. It’s gonna feel so nice to get into your permanent spot. Keep positive

Honestly I enjoy johns videos so much because they just make me want to skate with him, I'm not a good skater but I'm pretty alright and just seeing him skate makes me want to learn more and just go skating with him, he'd be literally my best friend

Just finished watching one of Dale Deckers videos and he’s the reason I’m getting my first board at 30!! Came straight from the video with you in it and I was like that “That’s it! I have to get a board” 😁❤️

Love what you do. Your an amazing roll model and such a great skater. Please keep it up my dude. Keep on rocking in the "free" world.

You’re so freaking close to a million subs!!!!! So inspirational to see how far you’ve pushed yourself since Cali vids when you slept in your car! Definition of progress daily 🔥

Gotta love the Texas winds! I literally filmed myself being pushed uphill last week in Plano. Lol. Haven’t tried these shoes yet but have seen complaints about the insoles compacting quickly.

Literally love your content

Love how you manage to sweat a heart shape into your t-shirt @8:34 - that is true mastery of the sweating process!!

I like how the "worst skatepark" is better than my cities by about 3000 percent. Lol I should send some video of mine

the catiba pro is one of the best skate shoes i’ve tried and the fact that they’re ethically sourced makes them even better. totally got them because of you john! lol

Love how it goes to the beat in a lot of your videos

the rhytmic adjustment adds huuuge quality factor to your vids - it's really great to see you caring about that detail.

My guy needs some new wheels got a helicopter flatspot Edit: spoke too soon didn’t get to part where u said I had flatspot lmao

love your vids keep at it (:

I have a specific hill near where I live where I do slides to smooth out flat spots. Even works out soft longboard wheels. Also destroys your wheel if you slide into a stop.

Wassup John I as well enjoy seeing you shred these's "crappy" parks. Always motivates me to get out and go skate again

I really like the Cariumas and I felt really good skating in them! Awesome video as usual John!

Blessings bro🤘🏽❤️

Cariuma are the best shoes I’ve had easily, I’ve work them even in snow water just because Ive had nothing else, and these shoes are still kicking and don’t even have a hole in them. I’ve been skating them hard for around 4-5 months now and that’s crazy

When I started up my channel last year I put my KZfaq sticker on the box there and I never thought I’d see it in your video! 😂😂😂

Ayyye that first insta clip u should was winnipegs indoor park!!! The edge is dope!

Love the vids

big ups john great work keep doing what you're doing

Such a sick vid dude!! I might have to go pick a pair of those up now!😂👌🏻

I love your videos, it looks easy but man it's hard AF

At 5:45 i just noticed that John's sweat patch looks like a heart...it shows how much of a good person he is :)

top notch content glad i’m found your channel again

AAAHHHHH EARLY TO A JOHN HILL VIDEO I LOVE YOU AND YOUR CONTENT

Inspire to have your level of quality in videos 💜

Also my honest opinion of Cariuma is it's an amazing shoe. I unfortunately had a production defect where the flap by the first lace going into the toe cap separated almost immediately, they were willing to replace them if I sent them back but I just decided to liquid stitch them and keep riding because they're my only pair of shoes and can't afford to wait. (I'm cheap and don't own a new pair until my old ones are completely thrashed). Right away the board feel was amazing, they're fairly low sole profile yet seem to still provide tons of impact protection with the insoles. Very minimal wear on the suede after skating them for about a week. The more you skate them obviously the better they get. The grip is bar none the best I've had in a shoe, even with my worn down griptape on my current board it still flicks and grabs like I just put on a new strip of Jessup. I prefer everything to be as sticky as possible so this was a HUGE plus for me. Also they look great, I hope they release some more sweet colorways for the high tops as well; because I'm a boomer and my ankles get shit on easily. Overall they're my second favorite shoe next to the Emerica Romero. If they ever make a full toe cap model I'd be set on Cariuma for sure.

Compared to most park in Germany this one is amazing 😢 That little curb, the rails and the teeny quarter are exactly what I want :(

i have a pair, i like them but they loosen up a lot on me feet. yet to tear any laces and i’m looking to replace them soon. i like the overall

ive been wanting those all blacks but i just got a new pair of vans and they only sell usd prices i live in canada

Just got a new deck but its raining so I'm watching this vid to get hyped for next week because Its gonna be wet this whole week.

🔥🔥🔥vid

I would love to watch you skate bowls!

I appreciate the snares and lands lining up.

I had a pair and they where cool. My complaints was the hard feel and my flick was off. That was just my experience. Durability and style is 10/10

Cariuma’s r super comfy mad support

Early noti

This is from their website: “Upper: Triple-stitch, premium suede & organic cotton canvas” So they are not 100% vegan since they use suede. Just in case anyone that’s vegan wants to skate these.

if you ever come to louisiana, you should go to the skatepark in lake charles. it’s huge and extremely nice, you’d love it. lake charles is only about 30 minutes from the texas-louisiana border. and there’s another skatepark in my hometown of jennings about 30 more minutes east. you should definitely check out the lake charles one if you ever make a road trip though! they also have some really nice ones in baton rouge and new orleans. also, they have some nice ones in houston and beaumont, which would be closer to you in texas and would be on the way if you ever did make that trip.

That park looks like so much fun

Your smile makes us smile :)

I’m currently skating Cariuma’s and I like them so far but I don’t think the impact protection is as great as some people have said, but other than that they are great. Love the videos! Keep it up!

Garret ginner did a huge unboxing on these a month ago..love that John is on it now 🤙

6:58 WOAHHH THATS LITERALLY THE INDOOR PARK I SKATE AT WHATTTTT THIS IS SO COOL

that ledge looks AMAZING. what is it made of? is it sliding that easy from wax or the material?

Try the Lakai Telfords! I remember you liking Lakai as well and they do have a Nike air Jordan 1 look but definitely feel way better. I have a first impressions on my page but I’m pretty sure you don’t need to watch it to make your decision on trying them. Would love to see you try them John!

Can you try kickflip tail slide shuv out because my friend was trying and im not sure if it is really hard or not lol

Wow oh my god john Hill went to my local skatepark :DDDDDD. That tarp over the bench isnt there anymore though it got destroyed by the wind.

@johnhill love the content. Can you make a video about what you think about local skate shops in Texas? Given that there aren’t much. Your influence means a lot! Thanks @johnhill

John is such an inspiration for my own skating and so fun to watch. Who else agrees 😁

I got the white Cariumas and I’m loving them! Nothing bad to report.

John hill you are my favorite skater man. Love your stuff

I’ve been skating for 3 days and almost learnt to Ollie and become comfortable on my board all because of John

The switch board slide to front board reminds me of that thing Langa did on the rails racing the cat boy in Sk8 the infinity

I hear and see a lot of good things about these shoes and I'm thinking about buying a pair I'm used to skating half cab shoes (which are great for anyone that's interested) but are they worth switching to if so why?

Love your new Texas accent! Thanks for posting!

hell yeah I love the bad parks haha

You are the reason I got my Cariuma shoes, keep it up

6:59 the edge skatepark is like a 10 min drive from my house, nice indoor skatepark but i still prefer the outdoor parks around the city more

I love my cariamas they make skating feel so fun

I love how you make the skateboard hits match the beat of the song

John at the white settlement skate park 🤣

I had a pair and finally had to get a new pair of shoes after 3 1/2 months they’re great shoes even come with extra laces

John, I know you know this but you have killer style brother. it's always something fun and cool straight up! p.s. I fricken love your hat!🤘

So surreal hearing you talk about places around North Texas

Man I woulda had a good old powerslide session to sort out that sound in those wheels 🤢 sick vid as always though bro 🤘🏻

please do a tutorial on fakie frontside flips, they look so clean and pretty...

I like power sliding so flat spots are a huge problem for me. Is there wheels that survive that?

The way those grinds were on beat tho 👀

John Hill you’re da MAN

Your sweat made a heart on your shirt

You need to try Frisco and Mckinney skateparks. Also Arlington has a really big park. A little drive from Ft. Worth, but really fun parks nonetheless.

They dope ass shoes. great flick, great board feel, great for heel flips (cause the protec my ankles), and comfy. Cons: has canvas were I heel flip, pricey, and insoles compact over time.

Where can I get the shoes or a link from the page where u bought the shoes

Don't know if you'll see this but if you didn't know there's a really nice skatepark in Lewisville tx, it's the railroad skatepark. It'd be cool to see ya skate it

i actually skated my cariumas for the 2nd time ever today and they're nice shoes, but the soles made my feet hurt and they're pretty thin (i usually skate rowan pros n they're v thicc)

hey john, thank you for inspiring me to start skating :)

i love them. have bought 4 so far

I love cariuma's, i got mine last week and they break in instantly and are pretty comfortable

Does it have good padding bc if it does ima get some. I just need good skate shoes wit padding

Time for my weekly Wednesday morning 'John Hills got a new video out' routine.

Can you hear the flats pots lol

Nice! Very cool!

1:33 its cool how the tricks sounds matches the song beats

I LOVE BEING EARLY

Does anyone know where to get the shirt John had on

I’ve had two pairs barics and pros only problem is the bitten wears out so fast but I wear them for everyday life there so comfortable great for all activity’s
