Where in the pacific Northwest do you like to skate???
I really havent skated in a million different places. ive been to many garages downtown and u district, a couple hills around here and issaquah, maryhill. I really like alki and greenlake for when i wanan cruise and pump in cute little outfits () and i love maryhill cuz its gorgeous and um an epic hill.

Maryhill is hard to beat, but I have to say that Alpental is probably my favorite hill. Interlaken, The Church, Chuckanut, and Baker, those are all worthy skate spots.
skating waterfront in portland is some pretty fun stuff for just cruising. dragonstail is amazing, and you seriously cannot beat the entire town of salem for riding pretty much any discipline. mary is pretty amazing tho.

Well I live in the gorge and near Vancouver Wa or Camas theres this nice little hill called Prune hill.
Big money estates up there which means nice curvey roads. Theres this one hill that has the smoooothest pavement I've ever seen in my life.
maryhill fo sho
Salem does have sick slopes
Rowena Point is pretty fun
oh forgot to mention
Prune hill isn't really a "nice little hill" it's got some steeps.
and the smooth road I was talking about is defiantely 50+mph

i love the banked corners of mary, but willow springs rd here in spokane is much more chalenging, and faster, and someone can drive ya back up... so thats my fave

nice to see my hill gets some recognition
since i live up there i longboard on almost all of it i still need to try out some more roads like brady rd starting from dorothy fox.
i like to bomb mt. tabor every once in a while if i want to see other longboarders or i just bomb sierra rd, norwood drive (sweet scary rain riding if you dont have rain wheels) and a short steep hill called drewfs farm.

maryhill, rowena, senator, mosier bike path run (its fun trust me),
and local hills like mt. tabor and the stark curves. miller roads pretty sick, it was soaking wet when i skated it, but i'll make it out for a dry day some time, ooh and zoobomb is sick as hell!

Re: your fave spot to skate
definitely one of the best around is this huge cemetary in Shoreline near Ballinger. Its called HolyRood. I mean its by no means perfect but it is a great place to practice and there are so many turns to practice. The main run can get you up to a good 30 but thats about it.
really fun though

there's also a park on the far west side of Ballard you can start from and basically bomb way down toward the locks--- Ballard late at night is a great, mellow carving run -- I used to Carveboard it alot. not insanely steep, just enough to keep you moving a long long time.
Greenlake's always the flatland nirvana. I'd love to live right on the lake...
