CARLSBAD GAP

The 'Carlsbad Gap' is one of the most famous skateboard spots in the world. It is located in Carlsbad, California at Carlsbad High School. It is a slopping area of grass, roughly equivalent in size to the flight of eleven steps that lie beside it. When the skater lands after a trick down the gap, the ground the skater lands on goes uphill, increasing the difficulty of rolling away from a trick. Many famous professional skateboarders have skated the gap over the years, and as a result it has appeared in countless skateboard videos and photos in magazines over the years.
