This epic skate spot is known for having some of the best line ledges around and also having the most unpredictable odds of getting kicked out. You can go and skate for hours with 20 people no problem, or you can go with just you and someone else and get kicked out before your first trick.
This was originally supposed to be a clip in Billy's Mindgame section for "Accidental Machines" in 2006. Before taking out the video camera though, I wanted to shoot a photo. We were there for a while so weren't concerned about getting the boot. Billy was rolling from a narrow ledge on the left side and jumping a couple of feet to the rail which dropped 2 levels down a parking garage. He did it after 1 or 2 tries but then as I got the video camera ready to film, a frantic old lady came screaming from the doors you see in the photo. If anyone knows Billy or has seen the bonus footage in "The Truth 2", then you know he likes to play around with vigilantes thinking they have the authority to boot people from skating. I don't remember the exact dispute but I do recall a lot of screaming back and forth and then Billy making fun of her for having braces at the age of 55. We were eventually escorted out by security and never were able to return back for the clip. This photo will be all that remains:
