Skateboarding Spots
- a shitty ramp
- don't all rush at once!!
BACKWELL SCHOOL: plenty flat ground, waxed curbs in coach park, 4 set stairs, a few tame concrete 'hips', always something lying round to pop few tricks over (i.e bins/boxes).
PARISH HALL: knee height round rail right up against a fence, there used to be a sketchy drop(4ft) over a some stones into the neighbouring WI Hall carpark but some joker built a huge railing in the way. 5/6 stair set with sketchy run up. plenty flat ground in WI Hall Carpark but ur likely to get kicked off during work hrs.
MINI RAMP: in the footy club park, good laugh, really short flat bottom + a fair assortment of twats.
INFANTS SCHOOL: tiny set of 2 stairs, knee height wooden backless benches for slides, plenty flat ground
TRAIN STATION: long flat metal rail, low manual blocks, curbs and a gap/drop thing with good run up and landing, under-rated spot but v.crowded with commuter's cars during working hrs.
MINI RAMP UP HILL: at that farm nr bourton coombe has been removed. good laugh back in the day.
JUNIOR SCHOOL: some long benches and a long wall to mess about on, also flight of 5/6 stairs, now a bust though i think with new reinforced gates.
On top of that lovely lot theres a good hill to bomb it down - start at the church and head either down past the junior school towards cross roads or down towards the george for a proper thrill.
- The amp could be considered or maybe try the curb by the shelter in da skule coach park. As long as you got sum wax.
- the ramp where stupid little kids try to master dropin in. the shelters prety shit as wel cos the water goes down the hill and under the ramp
- Yes Skateboard ramp at last!!!!!!
- Backwell School, check out those speed bumps.
- Anywhere you damn well want if you can avoid the Local Councillors.
