Just a note I've never seen any video uploaded for so long with no dislikes... I love it!

Heck yea it’s going to be awesome to just look at the park and imagine people building it. Will give you a whole new appreciation for just being there. And thank you!!

@@FoxJumps that's because they removed dislikes from KZfaq

Thanks for watching!! It was fun to capture

Thanks man and absolutely! You could tell that they really care about what they’re doing!

Absolutely agreed man! It was so clear that they were there to make it right

Me either! It's going to be SICK!!

Right?! Now look at Newarks park and think about how these guys built it! Same dudes

@Brant_Moore they do a great job!

Thanks for tuning in! What'd you think?!

Exactly same here! haha what'd you think?!

@@Brant_Moore thats wild, I'm not sure how I expected it to be done but it definitely wasn't by a hose😂

Haha isn’t it funny how hard it is to imagine how they’d do it after you’ve seen how they actually do it?

@@Brant_Moore it really is:P I wish I could ride that park when its done because it looks like its coming out great!

@@justinmorris890 thats how its done when you have a company with alot of money... when your goin DIY type shit, you use a shovel, a bucket, and your intuition as a engineer

Glad you enjoyed it man!! Also, thanks for being here to watch it! Was it what you'd expect?

Any idea what the guy was applying to the dry concrete with the paint roller?

@@sz8558 it looks like a concrete bonding agent (look up Sika).. Most likely used to help prevent cracking but you will often see it used to bond new concrete to existing

hahahahahaha!

When I talked to someone there he said that they checked a few local companies and found some they liked so I'm assuming that's what they do with other parks as well. They went over it by hand 3-4 times smoothing it out before they were done

I’m honestly not sure as I wasn’t there for what came next when they were building any of the obstacles at the park. There is the portion around 2 minutes where the guy is painting something onto the ramps. I’m not sure if that is the final step for the concrete or not, but it seems like it could be. They also sealed the seams up in the bowl after everything else was done in it

Millersburg Ohio!

Millersburg Ohio

I'm sure they will! Most of them skate or ride

Easier to ask for forgiveness than it is to ask for permission. Best to visit your potential spot and observe it for foot traffic and whatnot, then make your plans and take measurements and all that, do as much prep as you can at home then come in fully prepared for a quick low-key install. The less foot traffic and visibility the less likely someone will report it or fuck with it, and once it's cured it's pretty much permanent unless the city bulldozes it. Lots of diy spots get torn down within hours of being set up if the spot isn't secluded enough.

@@Chudchanning the place I'm planning is under a bridge on a random section of gravel beside a bunch of bike trails and running trails. In a random valley system. Where it like literally shouldn't bother anyone. Only problem is getting shit to said location. But half why I'm tempted to ask for permission. Might be able to get permission to do it and get a city truck to drive the shit into the location. Random citizens can't drive into those locations but city workers can when needed.

@@Chudchanning xD also I sorta planned it for a spot where it would be a bitch to rip out. There's traffic but not as much as you'd think but sometimes bike cops. But done on stages might be fine and left alone till its too big to easily rip out.

Full speed ahead sir. Slightly off the path is a solid spot

@@Chudchanning yeeee plus it's a pretty huge area and like it's already a spot that's not got vegetation and stuff so not like they can say destroying wild life habitats. My city doesn't have my diy spots that last or any diy parks. Just 2 sets of jumps really. But it's been a topic of debate since some other cities in my country have huge famous diy parks and lots of them. Why I was thinking might be a spot the city would say yes to a diy or at least not go through the trouble of ripping it out and as long as it's not rife with problems they might end up supporting it. But gonna see about bare cinderblocks and some bricks. And pouring some custom bits and using gravel and stuff for back fill. Will kinda suck to fall on but grip shouldn't be an issue even slightly wet. Plus would let me line the bricks up with smooth transition. There's a hill by the one section that's like perfect to just build a flat like platform for a stair set. Might try pvc and Crete to pour a concrete hand rail I can polish and smooth up. Reinforce it with random metal or rebar. Probably also gonna help my buddy with some diy spots on his city. And we might build a diy bowl on someone's property for a private spot to sesh the living shit out of lol. But I wanna try and get skaters and other peeps involved in my plan. Make a spot everyone can enjoy but started by bikes so skaters can't pull the it's a skate park bs. Plus also a spot we can tweak if we want. And add more shit if wanted. I know this old dude who's son used to bike and skate before he passed away, has a stupid nice piece of steel pipe for rails. Hard ass steel that's corrosion resistant but harder then most stainless steels and stronger. Won't dent gonna slide like butter and should stay uber smooth. Concrete fill them and they shouldn't Crack ever and helps with denting. Already said I could take it. And I know where to source other railing material cheap so gonna try and make it look pretty professional and built all on volunteer shit and donations or my cash flow and keep it budget but like super nice to use as a model to argue diy park spaces and dj spots. Either doing a mini ramp first or 2 quarters a fun box and some flat rails and ledges. Expand every year lol or till it gets ripped out. But we have a skate crew that builds sick diy shit that always gets torn out. Concrete and plywood but I know they have some nice molds that aren't that heavy and pre poured shit for diy spots. If I can get them on board it'll be alot easier cause they pitch together to get bigger projects done for money and shit makes work faster. And I'm already planning to drop a decent budget on shit. Plus used to work construction. So gonna hit up a contact when I buy materials and get wholesale bulk pricing without needing to buy tens of thousands of dollars worth of materials.

Right?!?!

Haha watching that part I couldn’t help but get the feeling that he might’ve been the newest guy on the crew

Haha, your totally right! That's a new guy job for sure!

Not a mask or gloves in sight.

haha Literally had that thought while I was editing and trying to decide between having music or no music!

Its was quite relaxing also.

Agreed! Really glad it came across

Yep!

@@Brant_Moore that’s my boy Thomas on the sprayer 🤘🏽🤘🏽

He seemed like a rad dude for sure!

@@Brant_Moore hell yeah man

You can grab concrete. It’s slightly caustic so it’s not ideal but you’ll be fine. Just wipe your hands off after.

@@TheDarthmitch I used to grab it when I first started out but learned the hard way what that does to your skin.
