LA-surprisingly easy to skate, tons of amazing concrete. The courthouse is one of the funnest places ever to skate but the actual courthouse itself is really fucking tall in person, I managed an impossible up the fucker and could prolly do a few other things up it but damn, and also Venice beach park is a hoot when it’s not insanely crowded. The picnic tables are easy to Ollie over, prolly kickflip over too even though I didn’t try it, but other tricks would be a bitch and a half prolly minus 180s.
SF-the Hills are no fucking joke whatsoever. Third and army is the most fun park I’ve ever been to by far, and people don’t realize how fucking terrifying the curved rail/ledge is, I did some slappy tricks on the rail/ledge and damn near died with my foot going in between the rail and flipping over the side which is like a 4-6 foot drop. The manual pads there are fun and easy to do suciu style quick foot shit on.
AZ-the Sedona skatepark has the most beautiful view in the fucking country for any skatepark, hard to skate but worth the backdrop. Flagstaff has some fucking gems littered throughout it. Phoenix is overblown and kind of meh.
Vegas-lots of random dope street skating to do around the strip.
Kansas City-lots of little parks that are fun to mess with. That rail that Ishod fs tails there, and Malto and JT did tricks on is FUCKING HUGE. easily the most terrifying of any singular rail I’ve ever seen outside of the Dane burman rail.
Chicago- the spot on the water near the museums they fucked up in elementality volume 1 is a fucking riot, many years since I’ve been but a fucking blast.
New Orleans- singularly the least amount of spots I’ve ever fucking seen in a major city, but that spot where Louis Armstrong’s park is could really be skated if someone had the rocks to step to it.
Nashville-shitloads of fucking spots, and the like legislative plaza is easily one of the coolest plaza spots in the entire country. Since they have gentrified it in recent years they really have gotten some nice spots in those areas.
Cincinnati-has some cool spots, that one bank to ledge spot is a fucking blast.
Philadelphia-the burman rail is absolutely fucking insane, and FDR is prolly the hardest transition park in the country to skate outside of Washington street. Love the tiny crusty prefab parks as well in and around Philly.
Boston-maybe the best singular city in the country for street skating, so many ledges are already fucking waxed for you, and just so many rad little spots all over.
Salt Lake City- tons of fantastic fucking parks all over the city, and just a ton of shit to skate in general around downtown salt lake.
Denver- such a fun fucking city, tons of parks in the Denver metro/fort Collins/boulder area. LoDo(not the park) is a blast to fucking skate but be weary of fucking heroin junkies and meth heads.
