Watch: Video of Skateboarder Taking On a Never-Seen-Before Challenge Disrupts the Internet

Skateboarding is fun, and just like any fun activity, it is not only restricted to a skatepark. At least, not to one enthusiastic skateboarder who has just decided to turn his natural surroundings into a skating arena. A video going viral online shows a person, with no protective gear on, skating in the mountains inside a jungle. It provides quite an interesting scenario for skateboarders all around.

Skateboarding requires a surface that’s even and smooth, and yet curvy, wave-like, and sometimes lopsided. Thus, the skatepark is often built that way. However, a mountainous crevice in the middle of some unknown jungle could also very much serve the same purpose. This athlete proves it.

Skateboarding made fun by transforming rock into a skatepark

An Instagram post by the Olympics page went, “Life lesson: Everything can be a skatepark”, followed by a skateboard and a Christmas tree emoji. The video attached showed the skateboarder coming in full swing from inside a bushy area and skating through the rocky surface around it.

The caption in the clip read, “Mountain skateboarding?” with a slightly befuddled emoji. The notion was to convey the eccentricity of the skateboarder, who wouldn’t stop no matter the surface. He performed several tricks on the sandy rock, each more vigorous than the other. He wasn’t even compromising on speed while skating in there.

Athletes have always gone above and beyond for their practice when appropriate venues or equipment haven’t been made available to them. But skateboarders, in particular, have always found off-beat locations out in nature to perform their favorite activity. A skateboarder once even got a permanent tattoo while skateboarding. It serves them well to skate for hours and hours without the humdrum of city life anywhere near to bother them.

A 2020 Vox video stated how a pipe in the foothills of San Gabriel mountain, which is present to funnel water from a dam into the nearby Los Angeles County, became the mecca for skateboarding in California. Not unlike the rocky crevice where this person was skateboarding.
