scouting out the area, looking for places that are good to skate, varying ledges, curbs, rails, or stairs etc. They can be all over the place, my favourite spot at the moment, i was curious where a thin alley led to, it takes you to a small square (6 cars at the most would fit there) at the back of some offices, 5 stairs, hand rail and a ramp for wheelchairs with rails. and its ideal because nobody knows it. youve just got to get out there and find it

Thanks for the advice, just been out with my friend and we found a tight rail for beginners, not very steep so i wont be in hospital if i faceplant coz of speed, long and thick

Hi, that tramac looks sketchy.. Whereabouts is that? [I come from Eastbourne]..

When I was skating down your way, I used to hit Devonshire Park, or the Seafront, for a nice ledge..

Isn't there a park near the Soverign Centre?

[PBFruitBooter]

yer the tarmac is really bad.. still havent tried the rail... its at the bottom of the massive hill near langney going towards Westham, on the right. Where in eastbourne are you? im only 14 btw but street sesh (attempting it anyways... xD ) would be cool.

EDIt... Oh and yes there is a park behind the sovereign center all remade for Eastbourne Extreme, its awsome! you gonna be taking part?
