Great Spot That I Drove over Everyday


On my way to class I drive over a bridge. I do this everyday without thinking anything of it. Today I took notice to the hill in front of it, that the drainage ramp was smooth and that it seemed to go all the way under the bridge.

A few hours passes and when the time came to go home and pass over it one more time, I stopped. I parked my car in a random field walked over and instantly ran back for my board.


Down the smooth mellow ramp is a steep drop to what can only be called the essence of skating. under a bridge with and aqua duct cleared out from a recent rain, I realized why skating has yet to fade. It is these moments that make skating great, even though it was random and if it rains the spot will become unskatable. That spot will always be special. Up and down nice slopes in and out of pilers dodging rocks, down massive hills, and of course some metal scrap that made its way under the bridge.

Send me a picture of your special spot.
