We’re very excited to get to bring you episode one of this sure-to-be insanely epic series from the folks at Caliber Truck Co, featuring James Kelly and Liam Morgan skating downhill in one of the raddest places we’ve ever seen. Enjoy!
“A big part of downhill skateboarding is exploring new terrain with your friends. Most start with loading up a van and heading out to the nearest elevation change in hopes of finding a rad run close to home. The apex of the downhill dream is to hop on a plane and travel to the most remote locations on earth in search of the best roads our planet has to offer. James Kelly’s dream for the past 5 years has been to travel to a small island off of Madagascar called La Réunion, and skate the roads he had only seen from satellite imagery. We decided to send him and Liam Morgan to fulfill that dream, and have Jack Boston capture the journey in a way that only he could. In Part One, the boys begin exploring the island, finally setting foot on the asphalt they’ve been dreaming of.” – Caliber Truck Co
