Yo I know you guys are out there, newschoolers of umass. I just moved in to melville in southwest and I'm lookin for peeps to ski with. I dont have a whole lot of urban experience, but I want more and can handle rails pretty good in general so I'm down for whatever, but yea anyone around here who's gonna be hittin up rails this fail, urban or backyard, and people who are headed up north once the snow comes I'm gonna be rockin the all east pass I think.

I know this should technically be in the regionals thread, but I dont think it'd get much attention there.

yea thats what sucks there is MAAAAAAADDDD cops around here, like at night you can almost always see at least one so that kinda blows. also, is there any sweet jump potential on orchard hill? cuz it's a pretty big hill but I've been lookin around and haven't spotted and quite perfect places.

yea i've been lookin around and cops dont seem to give a shit about skaters... There's some sweet mellow rails next to my dorm (melville) that look pretty fun, I wanna try to make a line out of 'em cuz there's like 5 in a row. speed might be an issue, but i'll find a way.

I dont know about this. I went to Amherst High and anybody that tried to skate in Umass had either gotten a bunch of tickets or completly kicked out. Who knows maybe they have relaxed a bit.

the way it seems, if we stay out of southwest, we should probably be fine. last year a cop drove buy us when we hit the down flat in north east and didnt care..

and about the kid saying there is a fdfdf dear worcester? where the hell is that?!

yea cops are always kickin skaters off and trespassing em etc. I am a senior at amherst high so you could ride with me sometimes. too bad you didnt post this earlier ive been having rail jams every weekend at my house or the MS for the past 3 months. those 5 rails are def a hot spot for cops too right by the main road. Theres a sick rail near amherst college under the train bridge its right on rt 9. and cops dont care about you hittin rails but i someone reports it they have to give you a warning. We were settin up the 60 ft DfD last year by the food hall and some old man reported us before we did anything and we got a warning. theres the HS rail too its only like 17 steps but its still fun. def a bunch of kids in this area though, my HS had a pretty big crew alone. ohhh and i have a backyard park, lemme know if u want any part in that, its gonna be pretty sweet

ya that rail says "tow into me." haha should be a good year here. we hav a lot of enthusiam coming from a lot different kinds of people that i never thought would exist. umass could be potential big for urban if we get a good winter. pray for snow and that flat rail drop is sick for like 450s off and shit right next to dfd at worcester though i dont kno about construction and shit.
