Cant seem to find this dude on ig, there are just too many that tried to cross the usa with a board.

Does someone have a link to this specific persons ig? That would be great, thanks.

What are you using to take that screenshot? It looks like a phone but the aspect ratio is like a square

To the dude's credit, he appears to be still at it, skateboarding across the country. He apparently posted a 'day 50' video.

So it sounds to me like whoever made that post did him dirty.

It didn't say he gave up. Maybe we all did him dirty in how we interpreted that description.

Thanks for the detective work! I know TTS software is a thing now, but he even has a gmail account... How (un)likely is it that it's just a publicity stunt (money grab)?

I'm not great at this, but from the original x post, I think his handle is @jaayfilms

The news report video says he dropped out of HS. I couldn't find where he got that he's illiterate, thought this would take two weeks and didn't know about the mountains... But I honestly didn't dig much after haha. If someone else finds it, please let me know. I just want to read that comment thread haha
