Title: Mid-City LA
Post by: fredgallSOTY on March 10, 2021, 07:18:26 AM

most of my west coast road trip is planned, however LA is a beast i've never been to and i still need a little help focusing in on. I'm staying right off Adams in Mid-City, about 4 minutes from Lotties (which is sick!)

What other stuff is worth skating in that area? I know a lot abt Silver Lake/Los Feliz areas but not really anywhere else. Could use yalls expertise :)

This Diy is at Syd Kronenthal Park, about 10 min away from Lottie's https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=moFMlVD6BLI&ab_channel=sk8rat

I'm pretty sure those guys also did a decent job with another DIY at Pickford market (actual location 4607 W Washington Blvd) as well. Not as much there but it's decently fun. Wallride QP, cinderblock ledge, slappy curbs, flatbar I think, and some other goofy shit.

In my experience, there doesn't seem to be much but it's likely I'm wrong because I stay east side.

Hey man I hope you have a wonderful time! I'm born and raised in Mid City. Both spots are good ones, and my homie Alex was the one who started building stuff for the Pickford stop. Another one that's famous is the Diamond Ledges at Jim Gilliam park on La Brea. There is also a skate park that you can check out Charmette Bonpua Skate Plaza at Rancho Cienega Recreation Center. There's a long 3, a double set. A rail with a kicker on each side, a long ledge, and a small manny pad/ ledge. I use to skate there a lot. Hope this helps bro and if you need any other help let me know!

The Kronenthal DIY is an absolute blast

Bump, are there any mellow pole jam spots in mid LA or LA in general?
