This killer oververt terrain is Wave Rock near Hyden, Australia. Make sure you’ve got some big wheels. If you google images of Wave Rock there’s plenty of people walking and riding bikes, but so far no skateboarding. [Source: Touropia. Photo: Don Pugh] – Thanks to Tallboycan for the tip.
As seen in the trailer for Band De Filles, a movie known ad Girlhood, in English speaking countries. I actually don’t know where this is, Might not be Paris at all. Looks like a fun not-built-for-skateboarding spot. – Thanks to MC Francophile for the tip.
This edition of drive by cellphone shots, these aren’t tank traps on the Maginot Line, rather light fixtures and car barriers at a high school in Redmond, Washington.

Mother nature wants you to skate launch ramps. Don’t ask me where it is, because it’s within a five block radius of my house.
Spanish songs in Andalucia, sing of tight transitions in expensive private residential housing developments, designed by A-cero. Spanish bombs, yo te quiero infinito. Sotogrande! [Source: CoolBoom] – Thanks to Urban for the tip.
