Do the spots you skate get skated by alot of other skaters? i go to a school near me to skate but the only other people who go there (except my mates) are bladers so i dont really go there much. the problem is where i like to grind is where the bladers have there roller hockey goals so iv had w or 2 run ins wiff em.

we got abunch of spots up by a mall so we call them...... MALL SPOTS its so cool and if bladers are up there we kick them out and if bikers are there we let them stay cause were cool with them and these spots are skated so much the ledge is almost screwed but its still good to skate the ledge also goes up to 3ft and its fun to kickflip off

haha it's sorta funny how it works now that i think about it...
around here theres like 5 or 6 good skate spots, and everyone usually starts at the local skateshop and works their way accross downtown thru the skatespots, so i guess ya, all the spots do get skated by a lot of people, just not all at the same time, usually just me and few of my friends are at one spot at one time....if any of that made sense

Our skatepark is so small and has like maybe 3 rails. You usually have to wait in line to do anything. My city really needs to build another one. It's overcrowded. Almost 150+ everyday. They made a new schedule too, they give skaters 4 days out of the week then they let the BMX'ers have the other 3 days, one of which is saturday, so it kinda bugs me.

I skate my driveway and sometimes this ledge by an office building. It has a ledge than a 4 stair next to it. It has a 1 foot bank going up to the garden on the other side. I have yet to clear it. I can get the stairs and the ledge is fun. There is a handrail on the side of the ledge, but I am scared to try it. LOL!

there could be anywhere from just us to 30+ skaters at pioneer. its a major spot for the whole city, the skate shops' teams come here to skate a lot. i love watching the teams' skaters do the roof gap. i saw a guy nollie half cab it, then b/s heelflip it. sweet!

we skate mostly around my neighborhood cuz them assorted stairs are just so sexy. Theyre big too so challenging... And the best part is there is SOOO many... theres a couple too out of my range like the 22 set and the 17 set. (i live in a apartment complex :D) Just theres not much room to get speed... Yea other people come and go but its mostly me and the FTS. A pro stopped by and Zac came and ung around and we got to know him (this is how we met Zac Garrett, the unsponsored-should-be-pro-cuz-he-is-so-good-and-now-we're-working-on-his-sponsor-me-vid guy, he used to be sponsored but the company moved)
theres also a ledge or two hanging around.

There's a roof gap at pioneer school?Thats cool! I wish I could sktae there. Here in our town hardly anybody skates street anymore. Ever since that gay skatepark was built everybody skated that. I just skate by myself.

Yeah here in my town where I moved there are pretty much no skate spots. The only good ones are a 5 set with a handrail and this little waxed up ledge that hardly anyone skates anymore.

But in Mauston where my dad lives at there's a bunch of skate spots. I usually go skating with my friend Tim and then we usually go to the skatepark there and then meet up with some other skaters and then go skating. A lot of the ledges and shit are chipped to almost where they're not skateable anymore.

I live near blindsheppard, so i usually skate at the skool aswell, but the only problem is that you get chased by the caretaker. Does any1 else get chased just because they are skating?

what does that mean? I go find spots every now and then and skate the hell out of them. FTS will never stop looking for new spots. We conquered everything we found so far. We kickflipped every gap (cept for this huge 10 ft. one) and stairs (cept for the 12-14 sets) I feebled a 8 set handrail at a business district. Then got kicked out by 3 cops one after the other! Deon and I frickin slid the bumper of a cop car cuz he was naggin so much! Tell me, what the hell is a real street skater.

i live near Flip Man and i dont think he should say 'no real street skaters' cause there are some really good people and they rock so i think he might mean *****s cause to be honest, most of the people suck,including Flip Man and myself.

My room is never taken by other skaters...I try to just stand there and pop junk, also mentioned, my driveway....and the school--it seems that schools are a GREAT place to skate. Large sets of stairs and rails, curbs galore. And...um..wood chips to practice.
