best spot guide
Hope that it had the info you needed.
Hi Im a Photography student from the UK doing a piece on my website featuring MACBA and commenting on skate culture in Barca. My knowledge of skating is limited so was wondering if is a problem if I wanted to redirect user of my website to yours which is brilliant and so informative, for those who would like something a bit more in-depth?

You are more than welcome to direct people this way. Also if you want to use some of the writing you are free to as well. What is your website address?
Hi guys, that’s amazing. i cant find the big seawall and want to surprise my son with a trip. Where is it on the map?
It’s called the Forum Brick Wave on the map. It’s down by the Forum case to the water.
Sorry no idea. That’s some bad luck.
Nice site!
A friend and I are coming to Barcelona the first week of May. I heard some stories that the police is closing up some spots, is this true?
If it is, which spots would that be?
We don’t want any trouble;)
I am not sure if this is true but generally you will run into very little problems with the police. Many of these spots are in parks and out of the way which means you don’t run into police. MACBA, Universitat, Forum, Paralel and Fondo are always good spots to check out. You shouldn’t have any problems in those places. MACBA and Universitat are great for grinding, Forum for skating around and exploring, Paralel for manual pads and Fondo for hips and banks (Beer Banks are good for that to). There are so many spots it’s like heaven for skaters. Have a great time.
I had problems with the police in Les Corts, close to Coll Blanc metro station. There’s a sign forbidding skating there. Some skaters got tickets in this spot. It’s a bad recommendation.
You are right man. Avoid this spot.
I’m going to Barcelona with my skate in August. Very interesting site.
nice work man
the skate spot map is the best!!!
fblishen : You shouldn’t have any problems in macba or uni. For sure you haven’t been there to skate for a while, if you say that !!
Thank you, thank you, thank you! Beautiful work! Easy to use, good info. You’re going to heaven for this one.
Amazing, thanks for doing this!

Great spotguide! Does anyone know where http://www.flickr.com/photos/lewis_sharman_photography/2734935375/
that is???
I’ve been looking for that spot for a while to. I put up a post plus a video of someone skating the spot to see if anyone knows where it is. The video is on our site or you can go to http://dapperism.com/el-santo-skateboards-chillin-en-barcelona/ to see it as well.
There’re always problems with the police in this spot. It’s a residential area. Some skaters got some tickets. There are several signs forbidding skating there. http://www.flickr.com/photos/94736549@N02/8627312675/in/photostream/ Avoid this spot.
Thanks for this update. I will put a warning up about this spot. Basically if people want to skate it they do it at there own risk.
If it’s forbidden to skate there, I would suggest to remove this spot from the map. If we go there to skate and some have problems with the neighbors and the police, this can bring more problems in other spots where nobody is complaining.
Does anybody know where this spot is? As seen at 00:43 – 00:50 in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_EjoAYC7_0s
The three yellow brick banks in a line! I know it’s in Barcelona, but not where exactly…Thanks!
Could anyone tell where exactly in Barcelona Go Skateboarding Day 2013 event is going to take place? We’re going on a trip there from Russia, so that would be useful to know.
We’re in Barca right now, love the guide. It’s just a little looking around at the metro stations.
the barceloneta stair ledge got removed and the montbau ledges too…
Thanks a lot for that update. Not always easy to keep tabs on what is still around.
Nobody know the addres of The spot in rubi?
Bench and wall ride?
Thanks a lot!!
Check this out.

Been learning how to use this new program and used the database of spots you’ve collected. Thought it’d only be proper to share my work with you.
Can anyone give some tips how to get to the big 7 blocks near Sant Adria?
Great site will be back !
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Heading to Barcelona for a couple of days and I want to take my board. I am getting a little old a so looking for a good sized bowl that will keep me entertained for a couple of hours. Can anyone recommend anywhere?
??
There is a nice compilation of spots on your website, but you stole some picture from other skate map without asking or crediting, not really a gentleman move!
Which pictures are you talking about? Most of the pictures link back to the flickr accounts. For some of the pictures I haven’t been able to get in contact with the people but have used them anyway. I’m not taking credit for the pictures or making any money off them. This is for the public good and information only. I figure if it helps skateboarding it’s positive.
I appreciate the time and effort you are putting into this site, I’m a 37yr old female and hoping to take my soon to be 18yr old son to Barcelona for a futbol game and skateboarding, I felt very lost as far as skateboarding opportunities for him and now I feel very confident he will have a great experience since he loves to skate
Thanks so much!!
barcelona is the city of skater as you can see on map there are so many location to skate.
looking for the vent like half pipe with the transition in the middle that ali boulala bean plant fakes in the sorry video.
This what the skate lovers of the barcelona city are searching for all the time to find as many as possible space for skate.

Hi, i need some help. I was skating close to port vell marina by night. I feel down, and my skate went into the water by the boats. I think the water is quite deep. Anyone have an idea how i can get it back? or who do i need to speak to.
Had the map, great in itself. Not sure if I’m just being a dopey Mum but I can’t find the big sculptural sea wall -sorry. Thx for the heads up re the pole Harry.
