A New York man who is on a skateboarding trek of thousands of miles to raise money for a good cause has arrived in Arizona, days after he kicked off his journey from California.
Chad Caruso, who is from New York, is embarking on the trek to help raise money for a good cause, as well as hoping to become the first person to solo-skate from coast to coast. FOX 10's Stephanie Bennett reports.One man who is single-handedly skateboarding across the U.S. for a good cause has reached Arizona.
"My minimum goal is 50 miles a day," said Caruso. "I would like to go a little bit faster so I can finish a little earlier, but 50 is, like, my bare minimum." "So every night, I have to find a hotel, wash my clothes. When I’m coming down the hill, I have to skid my foot sometimes to slow down, so my shoes starting to wear down a little bit on the bottom, so we will see how long it lasts," said Caruso.
"It’s been an interesting experience," said Caruso. "When you’re out there and you lose cell service, you’re just surrounded by mountains."
