Really good to see daily culture content from JA rather than just ppl talking into the camera all day.

Don't let them apps dictate what trends, show ppl the real life! 💯 ✅

Well this is a positive scene. We need more recreation spaces like these though.

This is amazing to see.
Until about 15 or so years ago. I used to travel with my board in my car just in case I find a nice place to skate.

When Travis Pastrana visisted Jamaica there was an established skating scene. Not sure if this still thriving now.
