With the original forecast calling for rain on Sunday, we decided to head there on Saturday instead. Luckily the weather cleared up on Sunday as well, so we were able to skate again.

Sorry for the delays, but work has been crazy.
This session, we headed to Long Beach to ride the mini bowl. We had such a great turnout and crew!

I was out of the country for a week, so we resumed on Saturday, Feb 22nd at 2nd Nature in Peekskill, NY.
Apologies for the delay on this week's video; these take a lot of time.

The parks were still mostly under snow, and the weather was bitterly cold, so we decided to make the trek up to 2nd Nature again.

With the impending record-breaking storm last Sunday, we headed to 2nd Nature on Saturday. Attendance was thin, but we still had a great time with some great people!

Due to an impending snow storm, we headed up to 2nd Nature in Peekskill, NY. It was Ian and John's birthday weekends, so we had a large crew of about 14 people!
Music: One Rail Hoffman by Howard.

We were finally able to make it back to Veteran's, even though there was a lot of moisture. John and Mark brought the torch to remove the remaining wet spots in the bowl, and we ended up with a great turnout.

#MovementMonday I've been trying to make it to more 4DWN Babes meetups b/c Cortez Skate Shop offers mini lessons at them. It's helped me finally progress a little better with skateboarding. We'll get these kickturns more consistent. #beginnerskater
For the first session of 2026 there was early morning snow, so we made a last minute change to Substance in Brooklyn, NY. It was a small group (Sam, Dustin, & Howard), but we met a bunch of great people while we were there!

Heavy rains were forecasted to begin around Noon, which is when Veteran's Skate Park opens, so we decided to shoot for 9am at Brentwood, in the hopes of beating the rain.

The forecast called for rain, so we got in as much skating as we could. Unfortunately, we had to call it a bit earlier than we wanted, but still got a decent session in.

We had clear and cool weather, which made for a packed park. We also had a really great turnout! Sam also saved Howard's life, because he foolishly forgot to put on his helmet.

This week we had another new skater, along with the return of Walter, who really stepped up to help Sam and Allison on their rock to fakies. He also played a big part in getting Allison to lock in her roll-ins into the flow bowl!

This week was warm and sunny, and we had a great turnout. Laura joined us for the first time, along with Jenn on her long board. Anders (videographer) also came through to capture some footage.

Even on a very hot and sunny day, we had an incredible turnout. We were blessed to have Eduardo from Brazil joining us, and had the first appearance of skateboarding superhero: The Flying Meatball!

We had a cool, but beautiful day out with a great group of people! There was a lot of great progress made in both the Beast Bowl and Flow Bowls.

It was another beautiful day at Veteran's, and we had a really great turnout. We had a couple new skaters returning for a second week in a row, and also had a few coming back after a period away.

With Mother's Day on Sunday, we decided to skate on Saturday. We also met in honor of Papa Siggy's passing. We had some new folks join us, alongside some of our regular crew.

🛹 Making steady progress. Building confidence on the board and getting better at bailing when I run out of talent, get cocky, or misjudge things!

The weather was amazing, yet the park was completely empty until late in the afternoon. Special shout-out to Mark who provided Sam with some really helpful feedback, which had an immediate impact.

We had yet another great session on the heels of the release of the Newsday article. Even with rain in the morning, we were able to dry out the bowl for a great day.

This week's session was broken up mostly into two groups: the first was working on pumping, carving, and kick turns in the beast bowl, while the second group was working on lines in the front bowl.

To learn from my mistake the day I fractured my left shin in half, I want to buy shin guards like these when I'm fully recovered and get back on the skateboard. I miss skating so much!!!

This was the first week where we had more truly old bones in the group. It was a chilly but beautiful day, but many of the hardcore members still came through to put their time in.
