Pennsylvania Urban

Looking for some people in the Pennsylvania area that are willing to do some urban photoshoots if we ever get snow this christmas break. I'm located in West Chester, and looking for people that live nearby, or any ideas and locations for some sweet urban as the Gold Project and a few other people are going to be staying at my place for a bit and we want to get some shots.

Thanks,
Bryant

"There Always Next Year" Teaser from Nick Zabrecky on Vimeo.

0:41-0:50 in this video is a less than a mile from my house in Boyertown.  The rest of that urban is from south east PA and Lake Tahoe area.  If you want I can put you in contact with Nick.  The guys that are still in PA ride Bear and Boulder most of the time.

Damn! That sounds like an epic shot if you ask me. Once we get a decent snowfall with a little base, I'd be more than willing to drive over to Philly to get some downtown Philly stuff.

I live in South Philly and am down for a photoshoot. I've been eyeing up this down raill across from city hall for a good year now. Last year when we got the 2 feet of snow I was sick and couldn't get the energy to ride, but really wanna get some shots. I'll also be willing to drive to WC to hit some urban. Also I have a DVX if you need an extra video camera.

i shredded at the art museum last year as well. You really need some snow for the stuff there tho, rocky and rough for the most part:

There is some really sick rails in west chester(especially at exton station train station-where I live) that would be NASTY. someone with some major balls is going to be needed to try the one ive been spotting. Its about 60 feet long and has about 5 down kinks in it. its nuts.

Ya I think thats the same one were talking about. It's across from the McDonald's on Broad and Arch. Real un-sturdy rail, but nothing some packed snow on the legs can't fix.

take 100 N out of WC towards exton, turn into exton station right before the train bridge/overpass/stoplight at rt30 and then turn left to go into the train station. when you approach the first tunnel you will see the handlrail on the right. its ridiculous. there are actually several there.

there is a pretty sweet rail by the sands casino and the skate plaza in bethlehem its like a 28ish stair with a donkey dick. the only problem is the end of the rail goes in to the middle of a 2 lane road thats has lots of cars.

i'm pretty sure it's just the radnor stop, it's like a minute past the high school if you approach it turning right on east lancaster. that's not really my area, though, i generally try to spend as little time as possible in radnor.

yeah, there's really no reason to spend any time in radnor unless you are an uber preppy douche, or maybe to hit that rail.
