- any where and every where!
- tower blocks near guildhall, theres like a row of clubs n pubs on a higher level, all have stairs n banks, smashing spot
- Southsea Skate Park.
- The renowned Southsea Skate Park blates is the best place to go, failing that there are places all over Portsmouth where people skate; at the guildhall, near the police station near guildhall walk, at the pyramids and along the seafront.
- The Skatepark on Southsea Common is a good option.....
- its all about guildhall for street spots
- Like you suggested, by the pyramids centre (behind)is a goooood spot.
- Additions to Southsea, theres sets of steps, weird benchs and ledges in Old Portsmouth by the castle. Bring a broom to get rid of the sand and grit that litters the place. Some of it is skateable, some isn't so maybe bring wood to put down. Also there are skateable banks at the end of the Eastern Road, under the motorway. Again, maybe need wood to get over cobbles. Tough but rewarding skate.
- portsmouth is the best for street skating, loads of sets from 2 to 10. get off at the train station and go towards the town centre, a few flat banks and a set
and if u make ur way to southsea skatepark (which is main) then u cum across loads of sets rails ledges flatbanks an otha random stuff u can skate. yay potatoes
- There have been some new parks built in Portsmouth area. There's a new concrete park opposite South Downs college. Nice Mini, quarters and hip. Denmead has a park made of plastic(???) which is a challenge to skate but the layout is quite inventive for a council effort. Cowplain has a big and wide mini and a driveway with big quarters. Most areas can be found along the A3, for Denmead turn off at junction 3 and follow the B2150 (look for signs saying playing fields). Cowplain turn off at junction 2. Happy skating
- Route 666. Fawcett Road.
