“When Rooftop texts you about going to ride a park in the middle of the desert, you jump in yer car and you make that three hour drive. I must confess that I was really hurt during filming this, so the video could have been a lot better…but it is what it is. I was struggling. Shout out to Desert Skate Ranch for letting us come out. Really want to come back out now that I’m healthy.” – Our BMX
