San Vanelona's 25 must-see skating destinations

Own... Downhill Grind
Next to the metal wave is a metal lump. At the back there's a ramp that will launch you up, then down onto the edge of the staircase below, for one massive grind. Smart.

Own... Big Transfer
Right over from Regs are two tall quarterpipes - use the huge rolling slope opposite to speed into the one on the right, then clear the walkway and land on the other. Harder than it sounds.

Own... Halfpipe to Rail
Where you start for Chris Cole's challenge, there's a crude quarterpipe leading between two streets. Get the angle right to leap off the quarterpipe edge and land on this rail.

Own... Dumpster Jump
On the east side of Suburbs above the two no-skate-zones is a dumpster with a ramp leaning against it and a rail after it. Super style points if you can backflip/frontflip to the grind.
