FloriDeah – Riding The New Skatepark

If you have been keeping up with the FloriDeah videos, you have seen a few looks at a skatepark Trey Jones and Jabe Jones have been helping to build called Swampwood Skatepark in Longwood, Florida. Here’s a video where Trey and Jabe get some time in riding what is built so far.

Game of B-I-K-E: Big Boy VS Matty Cranmer

August 1, 2017

You can’t go wrong with a good old fashioned game of B-I-K-E! Big Boy and Matty Cranmer caught a session at the Incline CLub, so they decided to play a game to see if they could teach each other a trick or two… But it mostly ended up being trash talking and getting heckled by the scooter kids. Take a look!

“I had physical therapy the day before we left so Big Boy found out my little brother was at the skatepark and raced over there to challenge him to a friendly game of bike. Big Boy claims that he is training my little brother for the vans contest. I hope you guys enjoy this epic trash talk battle and remember to like comment and subscribe!” – Scotty Cranmer
