Never Thought This Would Happen | Skate Across America Day 40 

New "Caruso Knee Rehab Plan" is to just skate across America. Side effects may include chunked wheels, high slim jim intake, and propensity to say "yo" to livestock.

If there is a movie it has to be called " No Thanks, I'm Actually Skateboarding Across America " lol

I don't want this series to end. I hope you do more content like this in the future. Just you, the skateboard and the road.

Morning guys! Aight, it is day number 607! Pretty intense wind this morning as we have a blizzard crossing the Bering Strait! Coming to the tail end of our trip though and I could not be more stoked!

I am proud to say, I Quit smoking the day/week you started this journey. I tried your no smokes and caffeine. Needed my coffee but after 35 years. I can say Thanks to you I AM CIGARETTE FREE. Such an inspiration and life changer. For real I didnt think I could kick that habit. Thank you.

When you were in Little Rock I enjoyed my ninth anniversary without booze. It took a lot of help from old timers (many named Bill) and others like yourself. I especially love hat you barely mention it, we learn from how you handle your affairs. Peace and yo.

Killer to see you showing life after alcohol. That's a hard thing to visualize when you're in it. Kickass man!🤘

Congrats men I just started skating this year, I have horrible roads in Mexico City so seeing you push in shitty pavement in Texas was so motivating and remind me r that I just complain that much and embrace it . Thank you!

I left the USA for Mexico in 2018 and it’s been a very positive experience. The last 5 years up in the states has been a little wild and it often saddens me to see the country I loved kinda falling apart. But watching this journey reminds me that so much media bullshit is out there, and at the end of the day when you’re down to American to American interaction… it’s all love ❤️. Thanks Chad for reminding me of the great part of the USA… the people ✌🏽 from 🇲🇽 🏄🏼

Dude those cars at the end flying past on that two lane road! I was fully leaning over to the left watching that.

I don’t watch tv at all and watch this daily sooo - I’m gonna need something to watch when this is over 😂

Dude skating in his Charles Spurgeon shirt 🤣 LOVE IT! Love all these videos!

Some great cow conversations in this one 🙏🏼

Damn TN is SUV central! Beautifully green too.

dont skip the ads for this man

@ 4:09 - looks like we're both skating Chocolate decks now 😉 Doing so well man, can't believe those wheels are still holding up! Love it 😍

Cheers to your journey again Chad. ❤❤❤

Keep pushing! It’s awesome you made it to Tennessee!

Nice work CC, welcome to TN, donation made, keep on truckin!

9:20 . That is some seriously scary stuff. Super Dave Osborne daredevil stuff there.

Switch push gonna be stroooooong!!!

You've inspired me to skate nearly every day. Getting my daughters into skateboarding too 🤙

Inspiration is real! Keep it going! Say, what is your normal skate set-up?

Be careful bro them roads are looking kinda dicey. God bless and take care.👍🙏🤙

Learning new push techniques

Crushing it!! 🎉

The further east you go, the greener the foliage gets

Keep pushing man🛹

Whenever I see or hear your name I think of The Karate Kid 😅🙏

Woooo go chad ! Love Reggie 🤟🏻

Your so awesome and inspiring

Keep it going

This one gives me Forest Gump vibes. Just the running part lol

Bro, where in Virginia are you gonna end up? Will you come through Northern VA?

Do u meet a lot of people on the way. has some one asked u to stay at there house on the way

Yo, wonder if anyone asked or you said but do you ever push switch or mango? Think about it? (When I try it’s like throwing left-handed😂)

Have you encountered any aggressive motorists yet? Seems like most are being pretty cool with you.

sorry tennessee roads suck so much

Good work!! Those small shoulders bum me out for you!

Crazy skating against the traffic. Super dangerous. You should always travel with the traffic

Daily dose... yo! you comin?

So rad Chad

Yoooooo Chad you rock

Be real 💪

That was me in the black Subaru that yelled at you! I wouldn’t even walk 79, let alone skate it! It was great seeing you in the wild man, sorry I couldn’t stop! Wishing you safe travels on the rest of your trip!

heads up I called news channel 5 in Nashville, they might make a story out of your journey. stay safe and put some ice on it.

I quit smoking weed and drinking 2 days before you started your journey. Watching your progress has been helpful keeping my focus on sobriety. Thank you 🤘🏼😆🤘🏼

Been sober from opiates and meth for about seven years and I started skating again about two years ago. I don't try anything crazy but I ride around with my dog and teach all the neighborhood kids how to kickflip and ollie. What you're doing is inspirational and I'm here for it man Just donated brother, vaya con dios

Good morning I hope everyone is doing well another beautiful day let's Skate

You need a T-shirt of you and a cow whith your catchphrase yo what’s up I would so definitely buy one

Chad is going to be able to dunk like Michael Jordan when this is over.

I can't believe you are actually skating across America you really doing it...like as a Skater myself this is awesome to witness. Much respect brother!

Hell yeah, skate or die! 🎉 from turlock ca

“Need a ride” “oh no I’m skateboarding across America” What an epic answer

I agree with that dude, moving to America from California definitely takes some getting used to hahaha!

I’ve been following you for years and stoked you’re doing this. I’ve been skating 2 miles to work everyday now because of you. I’m 53

Hey Chad I broke my femur some years back and skating is so hard for me now but that's beside the point. I just wanted to say your an inspiration to me. When I'm pulling doubles at work, no days off to support my family and I feel like giving up I think of you lately dude. Your an American hero my bro. You don't quit and I admire that. Peace.

I can not believe that 100k+ folks aren't check this out daily.... Keep up the work, thanks for sharing video

thank you chad. ill keep it short but watching your vids in the morning is helping me find motivation during a tough time im just trying to get past.

Thanks for your inspiration you are truly a trailblazer

This inspires me to push harder on everything in my life - thanks for the stoke, Chad!

The main difference with the Appalachian mountains and the mountains you came from is the width. The mountains you have already passed were very steep and long but not very wide. The Appalachians are very wide so you will be going up and down and up and down. Just know once you get through the Mountains and Piedmont regions its all flat plains from there!

I'm not sure I identify with you more, or less, because of my own issues with addiction, but I think your honest humanity comes across in the same way to most of us, genuine, humbling, and inspiring. I swear I'm going to remember 2023 as the year Chad skated across America till I die, and I bet I am not alone in the slightest. Also.."hopefully it's chocolate" LOL :)

You made me pick up a skateboard so thank you!!

You go brother!

Motion is lotion as far as pain is concerned! Keep pushing Chad! This is so inspirational man. I rode my bike 6 miles in the rain with my son instead of using the rain as an excuse to sit on the couch all thanks to you Chad!

That last bit had me cringing with how close the cars were getting and then swerving. Stay safe and keep rolling!

I've been watching since say 1. Definitely been an inspiration to get sober for myself. I'm definitely starting with buying a board to keep myself busy. Thanx Chad.

Ever wonder if a Serial killer is one of the people offering you a ride??

Dude,what an adventure! I am 46 and still skateboard. Big love to all the people who recognized you along the way and to everybody enjoying skateboarding. Take good care of yourself,Chad🤘

That's great about your knee, and I think really good to hear for all of us skaters out there full of injuries, that perhaps strengthening won't make things worse but infact better

Just binged all episodes, now I'm up to date! Keep it up, greetings from Sweden!

How much money do you spend a day on food and water? Not including hotels.

You have made it sooo far!!! Absolutely amazing! Keep pushing, VA beach is just up ahead!!!

Whoa, I think you need some high vis, in the tree shadows you must be almost invisible to the cars until the last minute.

The cows mean muggin you and following you along fences have been hilarious. Its awesome how mind clearing this has been for you, I think a lot of viewers get some of that thru screen osmosis. Badass man!

Always perfect timing for my lunch break ❤

keep going 🏁

It was a pleasure meeting you yesterday

I was literally rubbing my stiff knee watching this... I just had surgery on April 22 and Went skating yesterday (5-12-23) for the first time in over a year and it felt great! Going to try and do a mile with ya on the last day! All your videos and IG posts have been such an inspiration to me over the last few weeks and now that i just watched this one, I'm going to get a quick sesh before the storms today! See you soon. The Dude.

Damn, 2 weeks… oh man, I have been watching these videos since the beginning. What am I going to look forward to. Lol… oh here’s an idea. Skate back, yeah!!! Skate back. lol… just playing. lol. I’m sure you’re going to do something epic. 😁👍

Skating with no or next to no shoulder on the roads is hectic! Enjoying the journey from Brisbane Australia. Keep Pushing ✌️

will you save that board forever? or auction it off for charity?

Man, that last bit of road looked super sketchy. Be safe, praying for traveling mercies for you.

How often do you hear " do a kickflip " ? I'm sure you've heard a lot worse too. People can suck

keep rollin bro

The cars is gnar. Check out monster gap behind you while your filming your wrap.

Legendary inspiring attitude youve had through the whole push. This has changed my point of view , thank you .

you put a smile on my face before i go to work everyday! Thank you for everything you've shared and learned on your journey, helped me out tons with my mindset.

Incredible journey my dude. Do us a favor and show us some more love with your morning and evening routine : ) Like a “full day in the life” kinda feel as you tackle the day/miles. Remember how awesome those were in 411? Sending high vibes from Phoenix.

I struggle with sobriety and skating has always helped your awesome and inspiring bless up and fun travels

thats crazy how your knee is improving, i feel like ive been having the same issue with my right knee feeling weak after 25 odd years of skating, but just recently i got a bike and im trying to put in the miles to help improve my knee strength,

"Jackson" is a subjectof a Johnny Cash Hit Song...

Try some bone broth, and eat gellitin, either jello or from soup . Should help with knee and joints

Physical therapists should start recommending skateing across the US for those of us with knee issues.

“Just gotta cruise through Tennessee, Appalachian’s & Virginia” 😂 holy shit man. I didn’t think you’d make it this far. Absolute madlad.
