There is one pool in DC that you can skate that I know of.

There are some good parks in Maryland from what my friends told me. I plan to check them out soon.

why would you skate a skatepark when your in dc theres ledges, rails, and stairs galore
and alot more stuff after that too all you have to do is walk around. but make sure you go to freedom plaza orthe archives or the courthouse and when ur up there ask about the bridge spot thats pretty much a skatepark

I'm not sure if I can roam around the city freely seeing as I'm 14... But I guess there are a bunch of street spots from the looks of it.

Freedom? Nope, and yeah make sure you have friends. When I said I roamed the city I mean I roamed the cities with 3 friends. But DC isn't that bad lol I remember my teacher telling my class once "Stay in popular areas where people can see you" it's not that bad.

i was just told about the bridge spot, pretty chill and everything is movable to your liking (from what was told to me)

the city is a great place to skate, but alot of it is a bust (pulaski aka freedom), welfare, ect.

if you go and skate freedom, keep your eye on the locals, cause they have the eye for the park police... (if they get you, you will be fined, board taken and maybe locked up!)
if you see the locals run, you run!
