Glad to see your break from skateboarding was short lived, you're way too good to leave it behind.

Love that your getting back into skateboarding. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!

You have to know that I hear every time you land on the snare drum, and It speaks to your multidisciplinary artistry. Your dedication and attention to detail keep me coming back. That the acoustic allure of the snare drum is equal to the successful landing of a skateboard speaks to the maple wood that they both share, and that observation is not lost on me. And though I know how improbable, I feel you have left that detail for me every time. Well done, sir!

Hey John I've been watching your videos since the baby clothing company days and you inspired me to have my own business and this years I finally hit 6 figures and I just want to say that you being genuine seems to be a big part of your brand and no matter where your life goes I think you will find success by staying true to your vision. Thank you for being a positive influence in my life.

You should try the Newbalence 440 high top. I personally skate them, and it would be worth a shot.

I'm so gassed about you being back in LA, takes me back tot the time I met you at courthouse and that day would become one of the last days before you moved to NY. Been loving the chill skate/parkour videos more than ever, so keep it up!

LOVE seeing with other people out of your original element. I can tell it’s great

Love these videos John. So rad that you're getting to trade pro skating advice for pro parkour advice with these dudes! All the best and I'm glad you're still making videos. Love watching you skate and watching you parkour!

When I take a break and come back, my ability to do technical things comes back way faster than my ability to do big things

Absolutely love these videos, skating and parkour is such a good combo

i got so much respect for how u talk about ur mental health in ur videos and how skating helps u get out there and enjoy life even if ur mind was telling u not to go

Dude so dope to see you shredding again; gonna make me go skate an undercover skatepark or something in my area . Appreciate you being a positive motivation & inspiration 🏆💪

just love your videos. thank you for existing💯

Stairs do hurt but I feel like if you skate a set of stairs all day you get past that foot pain of "when you drop off something too hard" you know lol I'm glad your still grinding this youtube vlogging game bro keep it up!!!

4:53 love the homie in back

So much good content in this video! It was cool for you to be wowed by Nate and Jeff's park our and for them to be wowed by your skating. Keep it up!

I tune in and out of ur content but I love ur skating stuff it always makes me relaxed

Whoa! This is so cool. Fun to see your diverse movements. I am like WOW! Too fun!

Seriously is nobody talking about the squirrel that ran up the tree at the 12:36 mark?! 🐿️

Great video John loving all the skating and the parkour is sick

really enjoyed this one! Keep it comin'!

That was so cool seeing both skating and parkour. Didn’t know John could do all that

Just got a scrape like that a week ago. Love the video John ❤

I love your videos keep it up John 🙏🏿

YOU FOUND YOUR GANG !!! That's do cool to see your progression in flipping and that you have new homies to learn with

Aww the squirrel going up the tree during the outro was so adorable 😍

Alright Johnny Hillshire here's the pro tip. You start with a 1 stair, then 2, 3, 4, davis gap, el toro and that's how you get decent at stairs

Chad Caruso last trick 50 tricks 50 states park.

John your a comedian low key

I love the parkour!

Great video , amazing skating and you really are progressing at the parkour, I’m impressed, peace ✌️

A lot of times the anxiousness is the result of not having an expectation met. As you mentioned it skateboarding hasn't been feeling as rewarding as used to be and I think that's a normal feeling because you're outgrowing you current stage in life and maybe part of your identity is pursuing different forms of fullfillment. I'm pretty sure you will still have skaboarding as part of your life but I think the weight that it has in your next phase will probably change and that's totally ok.

I really like the skate and cuts to talk about the skate sections

such a enjoyment to watch !;)

Im taking a long break from skateboarding... 3 hours later... Alight, guys Im back! Learning how to push again 😂

Glad to see you back, also for shoes I reccomend etnies joslin's maranas or És swift 1.5's

John keep up the great work

Chill vibes🤟

Backflip off the tree is crazy awesome

God Hawaii is beautiful. I thought it was Miami for a second. Give me the subtropics anytime.

its crazy to see u skate my local college !!!!

John, its ok to have anxiety. Its ok to not be good at everything. Go and learn and progress. I like your parkour and skating videos. They are good.

Cool to see you enjoying some skateboarding again John! If you leave shoes at the park will others really take them to use? I dig the parkour / skate collaboration.

2:16🤣🤣😆😆

ive always been scared of staire sets after i got injured but im going to start skating them again

YOOOOO HAWAIII!

Yooo my home park!

Awesome 🙌

Those Nyjah 3s are good!

"Hardcore Parkour!!"

I'm motivated to start skating

Happy to have you here in Hawaii. Aloha and Welina mai i Hawaiʻi.

John should make a video part

What do you think about the "Almost skateistan sky doodle purple" skateboard i cant not find any reviews about it

The park where Jason park was at is kapolei skatepark in Oahu fyi

Hey I’m curious John! At 7:57 you are dropping some white converse Chuck Taylor the platforms version, aren’t they? Did you actually tried to skate those? How did it went? I like a lot how people look in them but I believe them to be unpractical to skate in.

Hawaii is the absolute best!

Yo the park your looking were looking for is on oahu in kapolei it’s sick

what is your board setup?

not sure if theyre your speed or not but the lucas puig adidas shoe has quickly become my favorite to skate. excellent board feel and plenty of padding to protect you from primos

Es accel mids, white skate leather joints. Money👌🏽

With how.much content he puts out. 3 week break probably is like a lifetime and forever 😅😂

Nice

bro u have 3 pairs of shoes and i got these raggidy ass shoes with my feet sticking out of them

Nice sesh Bruv

Cal state northridge!

Yooo John that skate park you hoping to go in Hawaii that one is Kapolei Skate on Oahu

Yo I think I saw you at the skate park today I didn’t know if It was you but I was that one kid that had the middle part i was like the youngest there

Bradda that’s Kapolei skate park on Oahu

re: shoes. What happened to the slip on Emerica Wino's you were rockin?

Have you tried half cabs they work *amazingly for me. *No Squeaks.

Gymnastics to skateboarding is what I'm trying to achieve. Does gymnastics translate well to skateboarding?

I was about to type that that little wall to drop was begging to be wallied and then 1 second later you clipped it and a huge chunk came out and i was like, ...maybe not.

not so rare John W, I wear 10.5 and I've been trying out many many shoes as well but ion have much money so it's super slow and I only try ones that I've seen reviews on just in case. it's cool as hell to give out the shoes you don't like to other skaters who might enjoy them, they all found a home for sure. Also I'm so proud of you for going out there and meeting new people/friends, I have severe anxiety so I get how nerve wracking it is

Jeeze need to visit this skate park for some shoes my 30 dollar Etnies are on their last life lol

Oh you’re in Kihei

that guy looks like kevin spacey

did i dream that you said you didn't want to skate anymore

Bruh that is literally my home park I am there everyday (kalama park HI)

no way im this early! keep up the good work John!

Damm you should’ve skated the mini ramp or at least the vertramp

1:39 was the guy in the background taking a piss?

RIP skin cells 😢

John you should get a massage gun for those morning sessions 🫶

i us to do parkour to but still for me skateboarding is more impressive and better

It's almost as if....you matched your outfit to match the color scheme of the first park hmmm🧐🤣🤣💯

damnnn making me want to get back into parkour . this vid was sick

1 min and 250 likes already gaadamn

those bs flips are heavy

Try some Doc Marten's.

I haven’t tried many skate shoes but adidas and decent, nike are trash, but cariama is my choice and they are planet friendly

You got to break in your shoes before you judge them

Bro this man literally took a 2 week break from skating and he making a video how he relearned tricks that’s crazy

the only trick in this video that is even remotely possible for me is the roll in 5050 bcs i am actly so bad

i feel wierd, im wat too early, oml

If I were an uber driver I'd probably limit the amount of people Id say "I watch cock fights" to or just not say it at all hahahaha

it would be cool if you could limit the comments in your brain like you can with youtube comments. you are clearly continuing to kill it though and its obvious you are progressing daily

🛹🛹🛹

No Outro 🥲

Wait so, you already moved from LA? What is going on here...
