Skateboarding in Burlington (and around)

Since I arrived I`ve been searching for some places do skate here. If you live on campus you can skateboard on Tennis Courts and there is good to flat tricks, if you don`t, you can go to Winooski, Burlington (I don`t have photos), Williston (Talent Skatepark - don`t have photo too).

Last Wednesday I went to Winooski Falls and took some pictures of the falls (the river forms kind of a fall, its amazing, good energy).
After taking photos, one guy stopped me and said:
- "I moved to Vermont this week and the cops, in Massachusetts took my skateboard off, can I make some tricks on yours?"

I said yes, and we started chatting and he told me that there were a skatepark in Winooski. I became happy and went there, learned other places in Winooski (the train rail, the church, baseball field, etc).

The skatepark isn`t the best, but is better than the tennis court.

I tried to talk with the Americans but it`s hard, they are more closed. It will get better! :D
