Anyone on here who skateboards... what's your favorite terrain to skate? I myself like to do curbs and concrete ditches. I did my first ditch for the firt time today. It was wicked fun.

i hate skateparks

skateparks are starting to attract so many posers now. and they're impossible to cruise around at. i like finding my own spots.

go downtown... where ever you live, always dope spots downtown , thanks to modern day archtecture

yes, pay respect to the 5-set at your local bank.

man... i started skating in... no joke... 86... i sucked. i always sucked, but ihad a shit load of fun so i never cared. my favorite thing was curbs... i liked rail slides alot. simple little rail slides...

i'm really into transition, especially bowls and mini ramps. street is incredibly fun if you've got good spots, but they are few and far between around here. we just got a new concrete skatepak in town, and it's pretty sick. great bowls.

frontside boardslides are fuckin great..

i love skating, and it really gets on my nerves that i know i suck compared to all the people that are out there, and then kids are telling me im good..

skating is alot of fun, i am not very good started about last summer, they just built a new skate park in my town, Vans park but its 14 bucks to get in and the other one thats in town is free

Hell yea foo...

I HATE PARKS! they suck! I hate waiting my turn I hate the egos I hate them fuck them!

 

 

I blow at skating, I was ok a lil while back now I just blow.I got nothing

Curbs, manual pad dealies, stairs. I hate metal ramps, we just don't get along. I need to skate more.

i hate parks. around where i live its either fulled with kids that cant skate or people who just chill in the middle of the skatepark.

 

i like finding spots like stairs ledges and so good street skatin

Personally, I'm all about ledges & trying to pull off clean shit/hard tricks. I've messed with handrails and paid the price a few times -- not my steez.

 

Street skating is the shit -- just jumping on a board and roaming the streets hitting stuff as you go. NYC for sure .. Skatepark of Tampa .. SF has so many spots.

parks?? what the hell is a park?? i started and always skated the downtown landscarpe... the marble ledges... to the court house benches.... getting chased out by security, which was pretty stupid compared to when i was doing graff.. fuck running from a security guard for skating??? stupidest crime ever..... i feel so stupid for running.. i shoulda stayed and told off the toy cop

concrete, bowls, and backyard miniramps

 

I am jonesing to go skate, if I don't go every three days or so I start to turn into an asshole.

i hear that... my testicles will never be the same

i like doing gaps and olleying over stuff.. i also love doing noseslides and tailslides..

 

fuck a park downtown skating will always be the funnest ... if your wheels are big and your bearings don't suck cruising around hitting ledges rocks

yep.. just got the largest park in north america built this year. its cool, i hung out with pros.. i felt cool.

i miss the park at home (melbourne australia). it's in the dead centre of the city, so when you get sick of the transitions and ledges, you can head out to any of the zillion spots around the city. fatness.

LOVE PARK but only for like a half hour or so...

best place to skate is that damn 5 set with a handrail!!

ollie norths off the set tailslides down the rail and trying to blunt slid the ledges on the side and fallin on your face on the grass beside the ledge cuz you coulnd mount right... so when you land it your just like hell ya im the shit1

pulaski park.

if you know what i'm talking about..

i used to skate.. still manage to get out there every now an then.. it just sint fun when your better then all your friends you have nothing to really strive for.

My favorite terrain to skate is ditches. My friends took me to a ditch, which I had never been to before, the other day. It was quite possibly the coolest ditch I have ever seen. It’s very secluded, and some BMX guys have built a couple of concrete transitions and ledges. But the best part, by far, is the fact that this particular ditch is right next to a train track. Now I can skate and bench at the same time.

Not waving, but drowning.

The streets of SF...

Downtown manhattan, brooklyn banks before the fence, good cement parks, and a nice big driveway bump.

I brought my board to work today..I think a session is in order.

 

RIP PHIL SHAO, KIT ERICSON,TIM BRAUCH,CURTIS HSIANG, KEENAN MILTON,RUBEN.....SKATING THE CLOUDS

i skated a sick pool last month. went there and bucketed that thing out, swept it and skated it. that was the first time i ever worked to skate a spot so i really appreciated it.

i skated years ago, quit, and just got sucked back in this summer. 180 variations till i puke.

i started skating way back in 87 or 88.......my favorite will always be legdes and banks. curbs will do, but they get boring a little too quickly. manual pads.anything street. i was never really too into parks and shit....too many little kids, and the public parks usually blow (where i live anyways). street, street, street.........but i would like to work on my park skating a little more...make myself a more well-rounded skater.
