fun stuff to skate
« on: August 06, 2006, 08:02:24 PM »
what currently is your favorite spot or terrain to skate?

lately i've been skating a lot in the town right next to mine, columbia, missouri, and there's this big 4 story parking lot, and it's super fun to bomb at night, yellow curbs and other little things galore. me and my homies have spent the past 4 nights sessioning there

around the parking lot are a bunch of crazy hills and shit downtown, it's super fun

what about you guys?

we been skating this ledge that runs for a ways and then makes a sharp 50 or 60 degree angle as it is really the outer edge of a long planter on a local campus.  its straight because its the perfect width to do boardslide/lipslide popout tricks on but still be able to do any other kind of grind/slide on a surface like any regular old ledge.  nah'mean?  pop-out slides are mad fun.

yeah me and my friends have been going to a bunch of those plastic-parks around central jersey, they always happen to have nicely transitioned 4' miniramps.  not to mention they always have a nice cement philly step.  other that than, sayreville park to just cruise over the bumps and shit.
I hope one day Steve Austin is walking the street, I throw him a beer, and he stunners you.

DUDE, THIS TOPIC IS ABOUT FUN SPOTS, NOT LAME AND GENERIC SKATEPARKS. 

I FEEL BAD FOR YOU, I REALLY DO.

We got a big carpark building too, weve got a couple boxes and a flatbar stashed we drag out. It's good coz it's lit all night for night missions and never get kicked out. Plus theres this bank to wall thats sketchy but fun. Other then that just schools.

smooth lit flat ground.
couple of old filing cabinets.
curb high manual pads.

low stairs that you can do shit up and down in a line or something.

the spot in the ave clip looked pretty good.

We spend alot of time driving around looking and looking, I think were just burned out on the usual ledge,gap,bank spot. Although a good ledge is hard to find here.
