Rollerblading funky spots in NYC with Si Coburn (ft. Jon Ortiz)

‪@SiCoburn‬ hit me up and told me he and Amber were going to be in NYC, I'd never met him but seeing his skating style, I figured that exploring some funky spots in NYC would be appropriate.

I hit up   / newyorkcitynative   who knows NYC like the back of his hand, and asked him to show us around a bit and even give us a bit of history on some gnarly spots.

I hope you enjoy this video, and as always, thank you for the support.
