jaisalmer skate session: a smooth 20 degrees and a killer bowl
just rolled into jaisalmer and the weather's a little too perfect for my taste, i just checked and it's a smooth 20 degrees out, hope you like that kind of thing.
i'm staying at this hostel near the *fort, but the neighbors are loud as hell with their bhajans at 3am. if you're getting antsy, Jodhpur is just a quick ride away.
someone told me that the skate park by the fort is the best spot at sunset, but I heard that the cops might kick you out if you're not careful.
also, i found this old skate spot behind the market that's got a killer concrete bowl. it's not on any map, but the locals say it's legit.
fort is where it's at, and the skate spots are scattered all over. don't skatethrough the fort at night, though, or you'll get the cops on your tail.
i linked up with a local board shop that's got the best grip tape, and they pointed me to a hidden spot near the fort. Jaisalmer skate spots on TripAdvisor has some good tips, but I heard that the skate park is only open till sunset*.
if you're looking for something real, check out Local skate shop on Yelp - they've got the best boards. and if you're into the history, Jaisalmer skate community on local boards has a ton of rumors.
i just checked and it's a smooth 20 degrees out, hope you like that kind of thing.
