When you spend a few months travelling and skating through the country you sometimes have to cave in and join a few sessions at the parks. While you may think skating might define a country’s street culture in the paved avenues of the big cities, the skateparks of Mexico also have a story to tell and are still the place of good times sharing sessions. This one is for all the carnales we met.

Parks in Mexico are really surprising and oftentimes huge and vast dumps of concrete in some cities where only a few practice urban sports which usually adds to their volume. But meeting the crews of each city as we went through allowed us to share some great memories and even skate some hidden gems. For instance in Morelia where we met up with Joe Atkinson and explored a covered up SpaceBowl for a shadowy session out of time.

Be sure to watch the whole Chileros Video not to miss out on professional action since I loved the song to much and added a bunch of footage from Joe Atkinson, Julien Cudot and Stephane Alfano borrowed from other great projects like Foot Moon and Alfamor videos.

“It’s me again, so exited to share with all of you my new video skating for the brand Deathsquad Blading. Also I wanna say thanks one more time for all this brands who believe in myself and keep supporting me even without know me in a person way”.

“This video represent a lot how hard is for me to realize each video. Specially because nobody skate in my city and always is sad to be alone recording your tricks, no motivated at all. Anyways, I got two good tricks recorded by my good skatefriend “Gallito” and the rest of the video was me. As you can see, the skatepark is so big but each area still alone.

I know the idea of an alone skatepark sounds beautiful but believe me… after more 10 years skating like this is so depressing. The good thing is that I still loving to skate. Thank you life, thank you rollerblading for all. Peace and just keep rollin”. - Frai Gomez.

Frai Gomez presents the Faction V1 White Skates. A video testing the new skates and filming all day at 2 local parks of my city Saltillo (Mexico).

I was wearing white because also I was recording all this clips for a team video. Orders from the boss. Skating like that was one of the hardest thing for this video, believe me, staying clean is almost impossible. Plus I’m feeling more nervous when I’m skating and recording for an specific thing. Considering it was my first day using this new skates, I can say I’m really happy with the results. So, I want to say thank you one more time, specially to my good friend Cameron Card who did my sponsor possible and also thanks to Faction Skate Company for still supporting me and keeping me motivaed to still pushing my level up.

Thanks to Erik Tavares for recording me all day and thanks to all these people who still loving what I love to do, specially Fam, Homies and Haters lol. Keep rolling and doing what you passion loves to do. All big things in the life request big sacrifices. The people from the house gave us a bottle of water and the chance to try the gap so, thanks to you too. - Frai Gomez.
