This past year has been a blur of skating and filming. Different projects & different chapters each one quietly pulling me inward, asking what this all really means.At this point, skating isnt just something I do anymore. Its stitched into who I am, shaping how I see and move through the world. Skating is a patient teacher sometimes generous, sometimes confronting. Its lessons landing when Im ready.While filming my previous part Endless Summer, I dangled an imaginary carrot in front of myself and chased it relentlessly. Sure, it worked well to fuel motivation but somewhere along the way came a quiet shift: a realisation that effort doesnt guarantee outcome. You can give everything and still not arrive where you imagined.Maybe thats the point.Growth begins when you realise youve been measuring the wrong thing. I was tying my love for skating to expectation, and draining the joy from it.The magic was never the result. Its the sessions with friends. Its the unrepeatable movements that exist once and never the same again. Its the way the noise of everyday life fades into the tranquility of the present moment.Lately, Ive felt a lightness return.A quiet detachment from the pressure I created.It feels good to come back to it. Not chasing, not proving Just moving.While skating might be a great teacher, Ive always felt truly blessed to have such a beautiful city as my classroom, and such a solid crew of classmates to study this shit with. Im proud to call this town my home, and energised by what each weekend exploring it might bring. This ones for the place thats shaped me the most.Hope yall enjoy the vibes!The journey continues.Filmed in Brisbane, Australia.Shot by James McErlain.Edited by Rob Kellett.Soundtrack: Cold Chisel – Flame Trees
