Own... Bank on it
Around the borders of the Matrix Plaza in Downtown is the biggest, widest and smoothest bank of, well, banks in the whole of San Vanelona. Mix it up on this mass of glossy marble.
Own... Clankity Clank
Outside the Plan B warehouse, near where Old Town meets Downtown, is this versatile spot. Try 3-flipping between the two rails to the level below, or find your own line from the many on offer.
Own... Bent Ledge Park
At the far west of Old Town, near the train station, is this triangular ledge that drops you onto another ledge below - there's enough time for a double kickflip if you're quick - and skilled - enough.
Own... Lakeside
On the south-east of Lake Sherwin in Downtown is this bible spot. It's best to ramp over the top steps and aim to land on the sloped edge, although there's plenty more to do.
Own... Metal Wave
The Res is teeming with spots, especially in the grounds of the art building, opposite Regs. At the top of this area is a wavy metal platform, complete with a great gap to flip across.
