It was extra special thinking that I was probably the first person skating most of these spots because I researched a lot before hand and mostly saw footage in the same spots in the cities and kinda sad skateparks (to be fair the population is just over 50,000 on the whole island). I saw some other surfskaters cruising back and forth on the sidewalk and thought "man they don't know what they are missing out on!"

Made coffee and breakfast, hit play and enjoyed the video! 😎 There’s some great skating in this one (as is in all of your videos). But the scenery makes this even greater! I find the boardslide particularly awesome, as I haven’t yet been able to land one myself. I always get wheelbite on landing. The backslide to 180 off a ledge is great. I have to try this myself. Your kickflips are legendary, people don’t appreciate how much harder it is to land one on a surfskateboard! The drop in to the bank from a rock was also awesome.👍 Hats off to your wife for doing all the camera work!

It is almost easier than an ollie because you don't need to travel as far: Basically the trucks you pop from only have to travel a few inches to clear the gap. With an ollie your back trucks need to move at least a board-length because you pop before your front trucks hit the edge and you need to be in the air long enough for your back trucks clear that same edge.
