    I met a guy like that in the 90’s except he was on a lot of LSD and was making his way around the world. IDK if that was true but my buddy picked him up one night and we had a party with him and he cut his dreads off and burned them so a witch wouldn’t get them. Good times!

    Two weeks, huh? The US is around 3,000 miles from coast to coast, so that puts him over 200 miles skateboarding every single day… I’m not sure, but the person who didn’t know mountains exist might be dumb.

    Apparently, Chad Caruso set the Guinness world record as the first person to skateboard across America in 2023, from Venice Beach to Virginia Beach. It took him 57 days to cover 3,162 miles, adventure adventure of 55 miles a day.

      Rob Thomson skated across the US starting in 2006. Also from Switzerland to China.

      I have a photo from that trip handing up poster size in my house. A random waterfall panorama.

    Micro cosmology is a problem a majority of Americans live with. If they can’t see it from their front porch it don’t exist. That played a major factor in the current shitshow preloading in d.c.

        For what its worth: He made it to NY today. No rescue required. The community helped him out along the way.
