I imagine hundreds of people skating down the road with Chad as he approaches the final stretch... MAKE IT HAPPEN.

That wheel company needs to make a wheel in your honor. The Caruso Cruiser. Keep it up, brother.

Thank you brotha for your time , it was good seeing you on the road . Safe journeys. Anthony

Thanks for letting us tag along and congrats on the halfway point! Safe travels bud.

Halfway across America and only fell once... what a legend

I love seeing the moments when everyone gets excited when they find you..

I SAID IT VIDEOS BACK, like weeks ago, that people are gonna wanna skate with you. Told you man, its the energy your creating for the skate scene, I didnt realize it till now, Thanks Chad, good vibes are good vibes for skateboarding, we all dont need to film crazy tricks all the time to inspire each other. What your doing is Skateboarding, dedication, hard work, follow through, and persistence.

2nd guy with the vx was a true skate filmer, that energy and the hype to get the clip of you skating on the highway was just amazing.

What a wholesome episode! Such wonderful people who search you out on the trip! Love to see it ❤❤❤ I got all hyped when you crossed paths with Anthony! Amazing. Keep it up Chad!

Glad the journey is getting better and better! The turtle and you crossing paths! Wow how symbolic!!!

I love the parallels drawn with the turtle on his mission and you on yours. Every car whizzes by so fast, Only you could be the one, skateboarding down a random back road across America, to find a way to appreciate that turtle out there on the road.

This series has reminded how awesome the skate community is and always will be. I miss when we all skated. Strength and Honor Chad!

Chad really out here adding value to my days with these videos haha

This video has only been posted for a couple of hours and it has already been watched by 2.5 thousand viewers! You post these at a regular time and I watch on my coffee break at work. Your adventures are inspiring to many. Letting the turtle make it’s own journey was nifty. I was hoping you’d get it off the road, but I guess it was safe enough… You were watching. We were holding our breath. Your supporters are finding you. Be safe. Keep on!

Hey Chad, it’s awesome to see that your biggest sponsor of your trip is Good Hearted People. Just shows how amazing people really are, much respect

This has been so amazing to watch. The entire series is restoring my faith in humanity. From the people who follow you and join you to the random folks who just pull over and help. And your positive vibe is just so damn great. Thank you and keep rolling!

Hah! Glad you still remember my turtle

Dude, seeing all those people stoked to skate with you in the middle of America has me stoked. I watch your updates every morning before my kids get up! Keep the stoke up brother! Safe travels!

We have an awesome community going on here! Cheers to Chad for bringing everyone together

Your Bravery IS much appreciated, For our Entertainment. Thank You Chad.

Those guys skating with you give me a vision of you reaching the end with 100s of people skating alongside

So cool seeing people excited to meet up with you and share stories. I've been waiting this whole time for the Forrest Gump moment and you have a crowd of skaters following you. Another awesome video. Keep on trucking bud

So rad that so many people are finding you out there and bearing so many gifts! #thankyouskateboarding Be safe!

You are the man Chad!! This whole journey makes me smile. 😀

You bring us hope Chad. Thanks for all you do.

HE GOT SOME SHOES! Awesome! This is great... this is just the beginning. I imagine at some time Chad will have like 100+ folks skating with him (or more) at different legs on the journey. Love it!

Congratulations on making it halfway! With new shoes and shades, you should be unstoppable! I've been watching your journey and it brightens my day! Stay safe and keep going!

Much Respect to Chad and his journey. Eventually I hope to be completely clean and even off suboxine and hopefully I can get a miracle and get my dental issue fixed so I can feel more like a human and be back to my happy smiling self so my 3 kid's can actually know the real me. Much respect to all and be kind.

This just put a big smile on my face. Been a rough few weeks here; watching your journey has been something I look forward to each day. Your journey is really making it much easier to stay positive! Stay safe out there, Chad. Much Love

It's so strange. I quit drinking in December and bought a skateboard at the end of winter. Not sure why I stopped drinking but I'm glad I did. First time since the late 90's, around the time I stopped skating too. But I feel amazing. Now I'm a 46 year old rookie skater. Gonna be a good year

People that support each other, are just beautiful. Much love to you all, and keep the ride brother !

11 days sober ... thanks for the inspiration

I've been telling anyone that will listen about what you're doing. Keep going man, this is so impressive! I'm always excited for the daily upload! Also, I quit drinking about 3 years ago. When I quit, I became so hungry to learn. I wanted to learn anything and everything I could. I mean stuff I had never even thought about before peaked my interest and I wanted to learn how and why. I still do, but I recognized the change in my ambition afterwards no doubt.

I feel so honored to be watching this day by day man, I’m here in Thailand on a trip by myself and I look forward to watching your videos when I go to sleep every night. Such great content

Really enjoying this, and trying to live vicariously through your trip!

What you are doing is important and meaningful, hence the reaction you see in the people you meet. Be sure we share the feeling from far away. Keep it up!

The amount of love I’ve seen from people watching this series is astounding. This is the kind of content I believe KZfaq was made for. Keep it up brother, your an inspiration.

So cool to see people skating with you along the way!! Keep pushing Chad!! Safe travels 🤘🤘🔥🔥❤️

The news really likes to make you think the United States is completely jacked. The strangers in this video make it seem way better. Keep going dude!

9:48 wow😂 you just helped that dude into focus. We all need that. Respect for that it’s missionary getting rid of the near and focusing on the far. Providence.

Glad the weather's been nice. Hope it stays that way. This is amazing. It's the first thing I watch each day/look for. Big Ups

Great to see you going strong out there, wishing you smooth roads tail winds and sunshine thanks Chad

Hi Chad. I Found your channel while going through a recent health crisis and your journey has been one of the things I look forward to everyday. It has helped me to get through knowing your story of overcoming addiction, making a positive change in your life, and doing something truly extraordinary. Keep pushing forward, never give up and please remember your videos make peoples lives better.

Excited to see how different things are when you are in more populated areas!

6:47 And it begins, followers will come and skate with you to Virginia, by the end you will be rolling 50 deep. This is the way!

Disc Golf saved me from drugs in 2001. I'm thankful for my buddy that made me go play with him. I just needed something to focus on and challenge me.

I have watch about 1000 KZfaq videos. This is top ten. Heart warming. Adventurous. Inspiring.

That was AMAZING when those guys started skating with you that looked like an awesome time
