Skateboard extraordinaire and reality starRob Dyrdek keeps churning out entertaining television programming. The former star of MTV’s hit reality show Rob & Big is currently taping the third season of his highly successful Rob Dyrdek’s Fantasy Factory. With his cousin rapper Chris “Drama” Pfaff by his side the synopsis of this show involves making everyone’s fantasy come true in one form or another.

Based in sunny California, the factory contains the worlds first ever all-concrete skating plaza as well as a corporate office complex christened ‘Corpo’.  Rob had a office built separately for himself as well as a smaller version of his office complex for his cousin Drama. As a gift to Drama, Rob had a recording studio built inside the factory as well and named it “The Hands of God.”

There were several ramps, half pipe, hand rails, ledges, a street snake, and basketball hoops. The show features numerous hysterically funny moments and items such as Rob’s three wheeled motorcycle, inventive basketball shots, and numerous methods of flying into the factory’s foam pit. While this is a close knit working family often celebrity, pro skaters, as well as Internet sensation have taking part in the show’s antics. They include rock group Blink 182, rapper Ludacris, NBA basketball star Carmelo Anthony, motor-sports competitor Travis Pastrana and many others.

Last week Kevin Delaney of Young & Reckless Clothing Brand invited me to the Fantasy Factory and you know I couldn’t pass up the chance!
