First time in the bay I skated 3rd and Army and got a trick I was stoked on. Ollie up the manual pads to ride on tailslide the middle and pop back up onto the end. I always liked mike york and nick mclouth doing a nosegrind through it and I thought a tailslide would be unique and cool.


Well anyways like 2 months after Louie Lopez does it in a line there after he ollied the flat gap before doing it super fast and clean. Whatever Louie. Whatever.

I’ve done a handful of other tricks at famous spots l liked, most recently got a front nose to fakie at that one DC bank spot by the us Capitol building.

[ndsr]

when i lived in SF the last time, this one day i was just about to switch heel Wallenberg from the top, but couldn't because i had to go to work

I’m glad you were able to make it, to work that is.  Attendance is important to most employers.

[Easy Slider]

Define famous.

International: Fakie heel on flat at Place de la Republique.

Local: Kickflip and Pop Shuv (to fakie each) on the Prime Tower banks (Zurich) and that blue fountain at that school in Schwamendingen Oli Weismantel backside flipped (over the whole thing).

[Slikk]

its at the Skydome in Toronto on the side next to the Steam Whistle Brewery. Sadly there is all grass and mini traintracks there now   there are more buildings that have these banks but there is all grass up to them. its possible one day that grass will get paved over. I think BMX still go there

[OldieButFrenchie]

fs ollie grab to sprained ankle at the Marseille bowl main hip.
Ollie the 3 flat 3 at Le Dome/Palais de Tokyo
Kickflip and heelflip fakie at Brooklyn banks.

Buuuuuuuuuuut.....that was all over 20 years ago.

[Sizzle]

Most effortless front nose of my life at the AVE bench when it was at TF

[Robert Baratheon]

Kickflipped the hip at Lockwood.

Noseslid the tall ledge at EMB.

Cut off Henry Sanchez at Pier 7 and lived.

Fuck I did too. He was pissed though.

[Robert Baratheon]

He was filming and stomped at 360 flip before I cut him off. He gave me a hard stare but that was it. Place was crowded as shit. Bad time to film.

[Gab]

It was hella crowded when I was there too. He wasn’t really landing anything, then I got in his way and I remember his complaining loudly about all the damn kids and thought he was talking about me. This was over 20 years ago so it’s a fuzzy memory.

[Blind Fisherman]

I'm jealous of y'all getting to skate famous spots. The only one near me is the MLK monument in Memphis that Zered destroyed in his Vicious Cycle and the best I could muster was a bullshit nollie backside flip on the steepest bank.


Clips start around 0:39. It's not in the same spot anymore, but it was difficult as fuck to skate even when it was at this original location.

[McBrandt]

BS carve a small bench at china banks like a few others. Ollied the steps at the top of Vallejo St in North Beach, bombed down to the first intersection and tried to run out of it and ate shit. There were a few famous spots in San Diego I'd skate. I ollied that driveway gap in Pacific Beach that I remember Smolik had a sequence switch flipping. Also there's that 3 up 3 down at the san diego school district building that Markovich bluntslid across in Art Bars, I use to skate that spot all the time when I lived a few blocks away. I liked to fs lipslide across part of it and bounce down the steps in the middle like Jamie Thomas did at some spot in Thrill of it All.

[c-dock]

I dropped in on Blubba as a teenager, lol

Did a super sloppy 50-50 on the pyramid ledges, definitely wanna go back and do it proper

Front shove to fakie at Brooklyn Banks (maybe?)

Straight manny front shove out / front 180 out at Pier 7

Could probably fs nosegrind the small out ledge at Pulaski

[PatrickSkateman]

I’ve backside flipped on flat at Love Park and a ton of famous spots throughout NYC, California, and Europe.

The ones I did at Oslo City Hall and Stalin Plaza were the most memorable because of how smooth the ground was.

Forgot to mention Love Park and Stalin Plaza each had a specific tile that was a half inch or so higher than the rest and I got the two highest Chinese nollies I’ve ever done on those things.
