Skateboarding Spots

• I've seen this turd skating they do - thought it was just a joke at first - but it's true!....revolting if you ask me. Old road and west avenue are the places to go if you don't believe me
• Turd skating is the latest craze to hit sunny Clacton. You take a flying leap at a good fresh dog turd and see how far along the pavement you can slide. John Planet is said to have achieved a 24 foot run down Old road. Mind you he was pushed by 5 other blokes
• Boarders and bladers hang around by the town hall in Station road, The steps are particularly good for grinding. The staff inside are always moaning, all old and were never young.
• Down pier gap and straight off the end of the Jolly Roger.
• down the beach or safe way car park
• any of the boat ramps down to the beach make a laugh. especially at high tide.
• Kingsman Drive, You can really grind a dirty board thru the kick-ass track with a tune or snuff-quagler!

• pier gap LOOK OUT OLD BIDDY!!! WWWEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
• I haven't lived in Clacton for six years but I've got a lot of friends there and things never change much. I used to skate with a bunch of guys...The Wet Flower Gang. Some of them are still around but mostly not skating anymore. A new generation is born I guess. The best place to skate really is Colchester. But there is always the Pier Gap. Loads of nice rails but too many cockneys on holiday. The west side prom has a lot of nice low walls and smooth grindy steps. The whole area is very flat. Ramps pop up in Car Parks and playing fields but are all made of wood and seem to get burnt down on a regular basis. Shit local council won't build a metal one. In fact there used to be a top bowl down the road in Walton. Left over from the seventies. But the local authorities smashed it up six years ago. A good reason to leave I thought.
