San Vanelona's 25 must-see skating destinations

Own... Manual Pads
An obvious spot this (being in a skate park and all) but that doesn't make it any less worthy of your time. Find it near the drains/halfpipes on the south wall of the Community Centre.

Own... Planter Leap
This is a devil to get right, since the kicker on the raised part of the Community Centre facing the planter wall isn't quite high enough. That said, it's still possible to backflip this spot...

Own... Front Yard
Along the middle of the "curve" formed by the south of Suburbs is a house witha perfect ollie gap-grind-drop spot. Get enough speed on the pavement to hit the top edge for super exit height.

Own... Hawk homage
This is as close to Tony Hawk as Skate gets - a big kicked slope that throws you onto a 20ft high pillared platform. Find it at the south west courtyard in the Downtown Library grounds.
