This is really interesting. I think people underestimate how much hard work goes into keeping a business afloat, much less profitable and growing.

Great insight into how expensive it is to be a ramp maker, run operations and market a brand.
John these new types of videos are so insightful and well made. Please do not be discouraged to branch out into new kinds of content ❤
super rad how transparent Cory is about everything - definitely respect that
Smart on John to listen to the feedback and update the thumbnails. Really like the interview content

Yeah the titles still a bit weird. Especially for people outside of the core audience here.
«Rocco’s my dawg» is such an insiders joke from back in the day, love these new videos with you put and about, meeting people and doing little reportage videos of characters in the skateboard biz, the move was a smart move (all puns intended ;)
Been enjoying these interview type vids!
This video was so beautiful John thank you for all the work you put into these videos
Love Keen Ramps. A huge inspiration to me invention wise, sk8ing wise & entrepreneurially. Much like the vid you did with Mrs Peachy, these interview topic/reporter segmented style videos really suit you Johnno. Keep 'em coming! *SugGeStiOn BoX!* • Do one on the Professor. • Maybe the history of the DogTown boys. • Do a retrospective on 80s/90s sk8ing in LA especially about the culture of videos & movies revolving around sk8ing back then e.g. like Gleaming the Cube etc...
Really enjoyed this interview
This was amazing! Respect for the dude!
We chose Keen for our kicker, round rail and grind box. Next is a custom ramp so customers can drop out of our mobile skate shop. Great skating and nice edit as always John. Hope to see you outside! Live Free and Skate Hard!
A business surviving covid is no joke, hope they're stoked and hope they continue to survive and eventually thrive
W Keen, what a journey he went through... Awesome video John!
Great documentary! Very insightful
Pretty amazing how much hard work he has put into his company 🤙
Love you guys lightly ribbing Dan Corrigan lol :))
great content since ur back keep it up
#1 reason is their ramps are almost all perfect in every measurement, and super simple to build and keep accurate.
So dope see how skate industry goes on with nice real people
Thanks John!! This was really interesting
loved this vid !!! cheers from New Zealand
This guy is awesome! Seems super down to earth
This was sick, and I love seeing you and dale shoot the shit. Reminds me of skating with friends as a kid and also reminds me of how goofy I can still get with my best friends now.
This was a fun one. I like the business side. Go visit board makers and talk about their designs. :)
Ps:I like your skating style and Dale's the best. You guys look so athletic. Not only the legs do it right, the whole body looks perfect.
That was great. Always nice to see behind the curtain a little.
Great video man
Keen Ramps also has the best packaging. I recommend the wedge ramp for birthdays and Christmas.
When he said 'there's Rocco', I was expecting Steve Rocco to walk in. Gave me a fright.
What a wonderful inspiring and eloquent man! Very entertaining as well!

Good times!
Sucks about those tightening margins. Could be the downfall over a medium-long time line without something to balance out, or skaters simply paying more. Wish Keen ramps all the best. Its tough to turn what you love into a paying job.
Well done
Goals!
Great video, keep making these types of videos, they're very interesting
Great vid❤
What a amazing video!
Loved it 🙏❤️
Ordering a keen ramp as we speak

Dan is dope
Dammmmnnn I couldn't handle all that.
I find the use of “I” in the title a little strange
Is Rocco named after Steve Rocco?
So I'm guessing a colab with Dan isn't going to happen LOL
So sick! keen ramps are awesome! Was that a mini fingerboard ledge I spotted on their office table too?! :D
why did the vibes seem off when hes talking about dan?

Hi I love tour videos I'm just now starting to land tre flips more often
makes me said he's had to fortify the place so hard :(
WHAT HE MADE VERSUS WHAT HE PROFIT ARE 2 DIFFERENT THINGS
👀
John Hill making videos titled “How I did X” with his face in the thumbnail when he’s actually talking about and interviewing someone else just seems completely dishonest, even for a KZread title/thumbnail and also sort of disrespectful to the people he’s interviewing.

Farming the algorithm
I just bought a ramp and it’s really cool that’s how. Selling ramps to me
weird clickbaity title, still good video tho
As somebody who's worked in fabrication and also looked at the price of keen ramps products I can tell you the answer is simply overcharging for labor and supplies then handing off the shipping cost to the customer. They simply sell something for something for much much more than it's parts are worth. And don't tell me it's labor intensive, these ramps are about as simple as assembly can get.
Loved the video, looking forward to more like it!👍
I watch every vid of yours but that title is super dishonest...at least put quotes around it or something.
