I only skate parking garages, when there is absolutely no other possibility (rainy or snowy) and in most of them arround my place there is nothing but flatground... Thats why I dont appreciate them too much!

santa rosa plaza mall parking garages are the best parking garages ever

We have a 9 story one here that is super fun to bomb, get about 4 or 5 rides in before the guards kick you out.

Living in northern ohio and not skating for 2 months a small square of dry pavement in a garage is the best spot all year

yeah that is the park, went there last spring when I was visiting home (I grew up next door to Canton in Massillon). Also a friend of mine owns a skate shop/tattoo shop in Massillon called Zoo, they have a little mini ramp in the basement with a spine, kind of hard to skate but fun.

Mega dislike when its wet outside and somehow it condensates and makes the parking garage wet. What are the physics behind this...

Sometimes it's the concrete itself... I live down the street from a university that used to provide a fair amount of shelter from the rain... smooth, rhythmical brick surface, just a perfect spot for shitty weather. Last year they replaced the brick with a poured concrete, then painted over that with the school logo... now the whole union sweats if there's any temperature shift, and the whole thing is slick like waxed ice. Fucking sucks. I think the school's going to redo it because it's a such a safety hazard. You can run, stop and just slide forever on it. Still don't know why they changed it... brick is perfect.

I've been having trouble finding a good parking garage. Most have this shitty rough ground and are devoid of anything to skate inside of them.

With Ireland's 8 month Winter, -or at least it feels like that- we tend to find ourselves skating indoor car parks fairly often.
Here's a short line from '07

I don't know, I kind of have a soft spot for Frog Banks, because we smoked so much weed and drank beer there in high school ten years ago, and skated it, and it's still going. But here's the 520 edit. I planned on bumping this thread the next time I skated 520.

There's another 520 edit in the works too, I guess I'll post it here when it's uploaded.

Theres a couple really fun parking garages here in Arizona. One is Pete's and its really good for Manuel lines and goofing around. Then there is structure seven which is really fun to bomb just it has 5 levels but three are of them are in a row and really steep. Its really gnarly too because like 3 people have died at it. Heres a video of some longboarder skating it.

Stokes is awesome. It's a 8/9 story parking garage that isn't to much of a hassle. Feels like an endless hill bomb since you can't see the end.
This place looks amazing... 2:30

Without parking garages in western washington we all would have quit months ago.

Damn, you guys are so lucky to have a parking garage near by. Bombing those drive ways looks so much fun.

Appreciated. There's a pretty good one around here, it's the only real place to skate after dark and get away from the wind/rain/snow/sleet we're constantly afflicted with. Started my year out there in early March. It's got a 4-inch high 6-foot long curb and a few concrete mini-wall-block things separating it from the street.

I love parking decks on rainy days when you're feeling antsy

The only parking garages near me are either always full or on nazi-level security. one got built a few years ago with these perfect round rails that looked like they were meant for skating...but then a friend of mine got arrested for trespassing while skating there and they're all knobbed up. basically everything's just a total bust.
