I'm all for public safety and growing/forging your own food, but wearing a mask in your own house and having your kid wear a mask in your own yard is wayyyyyy too much. In indoor public spaces forsure, but outside mask wearing?  Silas drinks the mainstream media's koolaid confirmed. Remember when the left questioned government, pharmaceutical industrial complex etc. oh the good old days.

I feel like an alien within my own side of the political spectrum these days.

Another great "Out There" I love this series.

Edit: After some thought it's none of my damn business what Silas and his family does with their health as it's no ones damn business what i do with mine.

Could've been filmed a while ago. I remember walking around outside and everyone was wearing a mask, regardless of whether or not they were near anyone. Having a film crew inside my house at the time would've made me nervous as well.

Before this turns into a weird mask debate, his wife had cancer or maybe still has so her immune system is understandably not what it once was. Add in a pandemic and there’s honestly nothing to shame SBN for wearing one in house.

i don't think convenience is the reason why people don't choose to grow their own food

That plaza is the most amazing looking yet completely unskateable spot ever.

[dallou]

The ground of that plaza looks horrible,props to him

[Stu Pickles]

who cares about the mask shit this dude is making my life look like garbage. dude is living the dream.

[KoRnholio8]

Was about to comment before I saw this that we don't know what his or his family's health situation is like. So, yeah, being ultra precautions makes sense.

yes, it's Joey! His dog is eerily similar to mine and acts the same

[Mandatory Reload]

By the state of the courts (DIY spot he skates towards the end with the ledges/parking blocks/etc.) this was filmed a long time ago. That spot hasn't looked like that for like over a year I'd say. There was definitely a time (around then) when I would've worn a mask when a film crew was in my house. Shit, I probably still would. I wear a mask when my landlord sends maintenance people into my house. Wear your mask, Silas, you do you. fuck these hoes.

[Paperclip20]

Love Silas

assuming joey pepper since he mentioned "joey" did the woodwork for the garden gates out of old wood from the park. also, looks like joey pepper from the brief glances I caught.

[mattchew]

Imagine watching this dude talk about how grateful he is for his life, family, and skating for ten minutes straight and your main take away is that he is wearing a mask around other people during a global pandemic. Dildos for brains.

[thebacker]

most underrated soty of all time?

[35mm]

Dude is living the dream. That bs noseblunt was fucked

[lamfordie]

This might be my favorite out there that thrasher has done so far. Silas is mad underrated. Dude is living the life.

[art hellman]

most underrated soty of all time?

yes.

[Nosferatu]

  Pepper back tail

Also, Santa Rosa has produced two SOTYs.

Bummer Joey is an ‘ex’ pro. Dude is one of my favorites and I wish he had more footage out there… imagine if there were 5 full Joey pepper parts to binge 🤤

My take away from the masks as someone working adjacent to/in healthcare, question everything you want to question. Disbelieve what you want. If the government/CDC/What the fuck ever is wrong.. you were somewhat inconvenienced by wearing a mask.

If they were right, and you passed Covid on to someone who is immunocompromised, or that someone passes it on to them… it’s a slippery slope. They could get hospitalized and go into debt, or worse.
Or they could get mildly ill or be asymptomatic.

But you can greatly reduce those ramifications by wearing a few millimeters of fabric.

[anon]

great role model, this fella

That's par for the course with the conspiracy theorists and pandemic doubters. Complete lack of common sense and getting triggered by people who trust the precautions.

Sick video though. Cool that the rough plazas in Portland were designed by the same guy who designed EMB and the fountain parks on Market St.

[DannyDee]

most underrated soty of all time?

Def underappreciated. Been one of the best for awhile. While the video wasn't cohesive and had issues, in a video with a bunch of my favorite skates in Away Days he had my favorite part.

[Coastal Fever]

He said he pays rent for his house.. do people in the US use “rent” and “mortgage” interchangeably?  Or is dude straight up choosing not to build equity when he surely could’ve afforded a down payment on a home at one point?
