In Boston you can just drive around and find a ton of urban stuff, if there is snow. I know of like a lot of spots with low bust factor at like schools and public parks.

Not in my town, all the businesses will call the cops, If you hit urban in the woods or away from roads and houses in parks or at school campuses/colleges (in my case BC) you have a lower bust factor than say a rail in front of a shop or a parking garage for an office(both real spots that I have been kicked from) I guess if you hit it not on like a snowday or when there were people you would be kicked but otherwise you're good.

The best times IMO to hit it are on like snow days in the morning or at night.

I've gotten busted at way more businesses than i have than like at a school. a lot of schools the rails go down to fields or like side parking lots and stuff where its way harder to get spotted than in front of a business at a strip mall near a main road and all that

The high schools in my area are the only ones with big time feautres worth hitting, most highschools have rent-a-cops. The rent-a-cop are my school took is job very seriously and was there from 6 to 11 at night, even on Sundays. But then he passed away ):

And stfu Zander

Dude, seriously though why do you care so much when I post something like that though? I know you hate me or at least are trying to piss me off, but you don't have to tell me to stfu every time I post in regionals. My area and apparently Elmo's high schools don't have rent-a-cop's like yours and schools and parks are good to hit urban, with like you said good spots, instead of like businesses and strip malls. I was trying to contribute to the thread but you need to try and put me down. No need to start a shit storm,

Peace!

You guys are dicks, I honestly don't understand why you are hating on him.

On another note, there are tons of sick spots around Boston and Portland. Just drive around and look. I find parks or places that are not busy are best. It could be a school, behind a business, a college, or a park.

It's really fun to look for sick spots too. I won't tell you any specific ones.

Every aspect of this post makes me lol.

1. No one likes Zander, or his aliases

2. Really I need to look in cities for urban? I was thinking of hitting up Irving and West Jesus. I hear the paper mill has mad features.

3. The entire point of this thread is to share specific spots with our community. Are you concerned someone is going to hit up your kewl, private, super underground spot you filmed on your GoPro with your best good friend on a snow day?

Go to hell.

Southbridge High School, 25 Cole Avenue, Southbridge, MA 01550 (Google maps --> ) https://maps.google.com/maps?q=southbridge+MA+highschool&hl=en&ie=UTF-8 I know that like pretty much no one lives around this town but if for some reason you are near by and want to hit some urban, go to this school. The town JUST built a new high school and never tore down the old so it's been sitting there for a couple months now. As far as I know there are no classes that go on at the school any more and pretty much no one around (couple of houses across the street and stuff). There are some easy lower rails, sick roof gaps/trannies, and some more difficult rails. You could do one or two of the rails without a bungee. I plan on going with one of my friends (if we get some fucking snow this year) and doing some of the rails there.

Spark Notes: Dope abandoned school with like no security (as far as I can tell)

I am not that kid's alias or whatever, I live in Maine when it's not summer, not Mass/Boston or whatever where you and him presumably live and ride. Secondly I don't want a ton of traffic at the good spots so that people get even more pissed when we hit urban there. I know you love to act above all new members but hold your shit.

Cities and parks tend to have a ton of sick stuff to hit, unlike suburbs where most kids on here live, and it's not hard to find stuff here on the EC by just driving around and writing down a street name, or using google earth or something. You want specific spots okay then, I know a few spots around where I live(near Auburn) that are maybe already known. Bowdoin has a ton of sick stuff for one. My friend hit a rail at some elementary school or something in like Falmouth, 30 min from here. There is the famous Bug light rail in Portland that I've seen in a few edits and been to. There is some stuff at Deering Oaks park near Portland, a few rails so you have options. (never been to that one). There is the rail at the River at Barker Condo place that is wooden and sick. Easy bust though. There is also a great sledding hill here in Auburn that you could maybe use for a kicker over something or some stuff. It's in Pettengill park in Auburn. Also some sick jibs at all the highschools around here.

That's all I got now, will be back with more later in fall after scouting for more in my town. (I was gone all summer)

Finally went last Sunday and tried skiing on one of the rails next to the sidewalk, but didn't have enough speed to hit the whole thing (slayed around 3/4 of the rail) and am definitely buying a banshee bungie for next time. 3 cops drove by and gave us a quick glance without any words.... idk if they just didn't know what was going on or thought it was cool but they didn't say anything? Also I made the mistake saying it was the High School but I went to the Jr. High, neither of these are apparently abandoned either.

This thread needed a bump!
