Only on Slap will people call a thigh-high ledge a curb.

And in Israel. Ledge=Hubba, Curb=Ledge and a 360 flip is an usi (oo-see).
We also use shalom everyday all day.
Shalom.

What about spots you love seeing footage of?
-China Banks
-any fucked up terrifying type of thing I'd never skate like a huge full pipe in the middle of nowhere/abandoned water park/etc
-Bell Banks in ATL
-old Sadlands footage
-NYC and Tokyo in general at night
-SF hill lines
-the brick spot in the Paris suburbs

Ending a sentence with a preposition is a hard habit to break out of.

This whole thread is just condensing slaps hate for Los Angeles into one thread haha.

I prefer night clips or clips filmed on overcast days. Not hating on the sun, but something about late afternoon foggy/haze San Francisco looks so rad compared to a schoolyard in the bright sun. Blue Print's Waiting for the World looked great with all grey UK skies.

I think I feel this way because I live in Australia and well, you know, the sun here is deadly. I mean that literally too. Look at our melanoma rates compared to the rest of the world. White people are not practical for this country.

Only because no matter what you do, it will never match up to what Penny did 20 years ago.

Good news for you that spot has been skatestopped for at least 10 years now

What about your handle? No spaces, no capitalization, gives me a headache every time I see it. You know what they say about people who live in glass houses?

Cant fuck with the handle dude. Sorry.

Like that matters. Nobody was gonna do ANYTHING close to what Penny did there.

Macba
Too many people (other skateboarders?)

I see what you're getting at here, but JT Aultz's kickflip nosemanny was absolutely fucked up

If I understand correctly, there is now an elevator where the landing would be.

One guy did, broke his legs. I think a rollerblader tried it with similar results.

From that angle it looks like a first try-er for Jaws. He's definitely done bigger. I've been to it many years ago, but at the time it still seemed too massive. I'd say there's several pros who could do it now, if it hadn't changed.

Richard King is the man who broke both legs.
Put some respect on his name for even trying.
I’ve always loved that no one landed it.

Agreed. That makes it more iconic. If someone really wants to try it now, they will have to cut a lock on that massive gate so there's runup as well as move tables
