Skateboarding Spots
  • Various Stairs: Sutton Place/Tyles Court is a little complex just off Bridewell street you can access through this undercover archway, in there is a 9 set which is tight and gnarly but I have seen it done, it also has a rail the main problem is that the landing is a total pile out, a five set which is not too bad but has a drain about five feet after the landing which can get tricky and finally a little three set which is easy but sexy in every possible way. Next up we have hag central A.K.A the bowls club which is just really horrible, it has a stair set with no stairs and a couple of dirty gaps, the problem is there is a lot of grass so the landings are crap, round the corner from the hallowed spot we find the hall which is called something like Girl Scout Cubs Hall or something and here is your haggedy hag gnarred out four set it's ghetto as, but you love it. Finally across the green we come to Morrisons, hallowed ground in Devizes, basically it's not that great for skating but you don't get kicked off it's flat , there is a loading bay with stairs, stairs with no run up and stairs in the corner which hurt, there are also some pads you can skate but they are also made of brick so pretty risk. Other than that I guess just explore and see what you find, every town has something to work with.
