I seriously got emotional and so stoked at the same time watching that final push with the street full of people cheering you on. Truly a historical moment for skateboarding, im not even exaggerating.

You should do an update of how your body felt after no longer pushing 50+ miles a day, if you got depressed or not after the trip ended, and just how you’ve been in general since we last saw you.

Dude I'm watching this after it happened and it brought a tear to my eye. The cop skating with you, the escort, all the people that came out, the old dude at the end of the finish line looking for the high 5! You're the man Chad! Love you my dude.

i think Nietzsche had a word for the disillusionment that an adult in their 40s goes through about how they imagined the world would turn out as a child vs. how it really is, i have long since forgotten the word though (and i dont speak german). i think a LOT of us (40somethings) are going through that though. dont be afraid to reach out, nobody is alone and not every conversation NEEDS to end in a solution, sometimes just the conversation itself can do a world of good.

I’m 48 lifelong skater,, this is one of the best things I’ve ever seen in skateboarding , Chad is inspiring to say the least

When you get the police to skate next to you... That is a serious accomplishment. Putting the LOVE for skateboarding out, like this? Bruh... Hats off to you!

Remember, if you liked this journey go back and watch his 50 tricks in 50 states in 50 days challenge. Chad is another kind of beast, he's built for this type of thing and we are all better for getting to bear witness.

The integrity of the skateboard at the end of the trip goes to show the quality of products the majority of companies are putting out! Regardless man, since starting watching your videos at the end of March, I have quit drinking. It's because of this. I have skated my whole life and proud to have someone like you in our community.

Absolutely incredible achievement. Watched every day, I’m sad it’s over. Well done Chad!! Me and my son always say Yoooo! To the cows now when we’re in the car 😂

I remember my first thought being that there was simply NO WAY he would pull this thing off. But once he made it through Texas, I began to realize it was very possible. So proud of this guy overcoming such an insane challenge.

We all rolled along with you whether u felt it or not. Congratulations Chad you deserved all the people who came out for you and more. Props homie. NGL I cried a few 😭 tears

I definitely started crying when everybody was skating and cheering him to the beach. Absolutely incredible.

This is what the world needs is feel good story’s like this. People are desperate to connect with each other. After being screwed and scared so badly the last 3 years

I wasn’t expected to cry during this… but as you added skater by skater, golf cart by golf cart to your parade through town… that love and support got me. 😢

May 19th, Chad Caruso Day. You have literally gone down in history for what you've accomplished. Incredible and well deserved. Congratulations. ❤🎉

Shout-out to the dude in the white car who almost introduced Chad to Virginia beach emergency services. You are a pillar of your community and an inspiration to young drivers everywhere. Seriously though Congratulations Chad, you earned it my dude. Must have been absolutely overwhelming at the end after spending so much time alone to roll into hundreds of people waiting to support you on this adventure. Quick shout-out to the Mayor who couldn't help himself but to make the trip about his local chamber of commerce. 😂

when that cop came skating up behind him i shed a tear cuz that just shows you the amount of unity this sport creates

Makes my eyes rain. This is so much more than the 900. Thank you. Sobriety is the trophy

I just finished watching the whole 57 videos in like 2 weeks and it's been one of the, if not the best thing i watched on YT period. I wish i watched it live as it happened..

I have such admiration for you doing this. I can’t help to think that I would’ve taken a day off somewhere because I was sore or because of a bad weather forecast… who am I kidding. I’d never even try this! You the man Chad!

At the end of all your vlogs there are always 5-10 sec of a black screen. Everyday they made me think of what I accomplished on that day. Some days were good, some not so much. Today, on the last video, I had tears of joy in my eyes because I was so happy to see you finish this trip. Thanks for everything - and especially for those few black screen seconds everyday!

Well, that arrival made me tear up - all those people skating in with you.....unreal. The icing was the "Gohead, Chad!" at the end.

All the walks of life you see on this journey from the start up to the end. Beautiful. Makes me realize how unified we all can be over a single simple but grandiose thing like skating. Thanks Chad!

its crazy that 3 years ago I was watching your mini ramp how-to videos every day to keep me happy/supported while skating and now you're getting the long deserved recognition for your videos man. congrats on going to Italy and get some rest !!! much love!

That comment you made about staying present is what I've learned from meditation, and it applies to every facet of life. It's so easy to get caught up in distractions and fleeting thoughts, but the moment is all that matters, and your journey reminds us of that.

This is my neck of the woods. I go over that bridge at work all the time it is huuuge i couldnt imagine bombing it. It does make me proud how nice everybody was to you in va.

Watching this one got me a little teary eyed. I had my car stolen a few months back & this series has really humbled me & motivated me to skate everywhere lately with a smile on my face. Thank you Chad for the inspiration!! This was rad to look forward to watching every day :) You’re officially a Skateboarding LEGEND 🤘💯💜

You’ve changed more lives than you’ll ever know. Congrats Chad

Legends and folk tales will be written about this magical man

Thanks for taking us along for the journey. One thing I learned from these videos is, "Keep pushing!" Thanks, Chad, and congrats

This inspires me as a basketball player and mental health professional. I grew up with skaters and have the utmost respect for the craft! Basketball is my meditation and I agree with Chad's message! My goal through my practice is to inspire others and this is one of the best examples of a true inspirational figure and endeavor. WTG CHAD, YOU'RE A BEAST!!!
