There's always gonna be DIY.
that's just the nature of skateboarding, you know? There's always gonna be DIY.
that's just the nature of skateboarding, you know?
I think that DIY is the new skateboard clubhouse
of like this is our crew, this is what we wanna ride, this is what we wanna do.
it takes work, it takes dedication, it takes going to the hardware store
getting the tools and a bag of concrete and get the car and get the water
and finding the spot, I mean
It's punk rock man.
That's good man.
Alright gangster
I ain't strong.
Coming through I ain't strong.
Coming through
Things are so different here, they way they work and the way they are
and that you can just go and build something like this in two or three weeks.
You got skatepark, you got skateboarding there all of the sudden.
These kids probably need skateboarding more than most of us
if they can come and have a good time.
We love it and we've done it, you know.
We're lucky in the west, you know, we have skate parks everywhere.
They've never even seen it before, but every kid that sees it thinks its the best thing ever so why wouldn't you?
I think everything here is, it's insanity, to see how people live.
I'm definitely going home with a new attitude.
I mean it kinda dawned on me when I got here that
I didn't really know what I was doing.
Maybe it is my dumb work and shoveling stuff is like
this might create something new
and might provide something for people, that might be the most raddest thing ever.
Skateboarding in India, you know.
You know the whole project is about building ***, and I want to build.
It's actually the same fun as skating somehow.
You just build something that you wanna skate and
like after awhile you kind of get a liking not only for skating part of it
but for the building process as well, so yeah.
You're getting better at it and its sort of like skateboarding.
Once you know how the concretes reacting and how you should treat it, you're picking up really fast
and its a lot of fun to just create whatever you're thinking.
And the ground is marble too, on the inside.
I just opened it!
You did that? I just opened it
You did that?
I did that!
I mean these guys and their crew, they will keep the ball rolling.
They learn how to do it, they spread the word, they help other people
and help that the scene in India grows.
