i don't know specific streets but austin has stuff all over downtown/guadalupe [i know that street]. that 'techgnar' shop might could help you out if they're still in business and there's a school w/ a perforated ledge off stairs down from there. silas fakie 5-0'd it. i never skated el paso but you can walk into juarez from there. juarez is sick, you can do anything you want in Mexico.

yeah just got skate downtown. there's plenty of fun stuff especially for hill bombs and little bank tranny stuff. also isn't it austin high that has the ditch with the two concrete tranny's that used to be in all the videos?
