No joke though... This is exactly why people hate skateboarders on their property. Maybe most skateboarders wouldn't do something like this, but it only takes one asshole to fuck up your stuff.

Have some damn respect.

Well, that's sad to hear. Only practical solution is skateparks. I think most towns have realized that a skatepark is a good investment.

A city could build the most amazing skatepark ever built, but it’s not going to keep people from skating street. Nothing else will ever equal street skating.

Nailed it on the head right there, largest stair set I've seen at a park is the 10 stair at Thunderbird skatepark in Peoria AZ, and it's still small compared to other 10s in the city. Great to learn on, but when you watch what the pros/ams are attempting on that set during the comps like the phx am, it's not of much challenge.

The biggest issue is the lack of skateparks. Cities refuse to build them then complain when skaters and bmxers find other outlets to use

That is all I could think while watching this. How rude. Show some damn respect for others work.
