Been walking around the city a lot recently and seeing a lot of potential spots. Going to grab some pics next time I go for a walk but I wanted to ask if anyone on heres found some really promising rails or such?:)

I posted it in the "post a street spot you found" thread but there's a really nice bridge over the orange line near Northeastern with a dfd on one side and a flat down on the other, with wheelchair ramps that have concrete ledges and shit and its lit up at night, kind of tempted to hit it if we get any snow. the bridge is kind of sloped too so you can get some natty speed

hell yeah dude thank you. i still get sketched my dfds in the street but flat downs would be perfect

Okay you stumped me. I don't know a simple flat down unfortunately but there are plenty of mellow spots at Ringer Park and Fidelis Way Park in the Brighton / Brookline area. Closest thing to a proper flat down is in the back or Clement Hall at Boston College. I never hit it myself so idk if the light pole would get in the way but it can be hit as a natty speed flat down if not.
Farmville420Yeah I thought it looked familiar, still haven't found a pic of the rail to confirm but you're probably right
yeah it's that one, i remember learning that it was in roxbury or roxbury area back in the day and if you look at the rail and stuff around it (especially those pyramidical concrete things and the metal post between them and the rail itself) it's the one. such a dope rail, one of my favorite shots ever
There are three other stair sets with rails on Breeds Hill; all of them NBD though none as long as this one. The southern facing rail is a DFD with incredible sightlines up Monument Ave or of the Boston skyline depending on your angle.

FINALLY FOUND ONE. Natty speed as well, here is your spot op, runs our into a street but it's pretty low traffic so should be chill, just have a spotter.
Backside of Clougherty Pool in Charlestown is a great steep hill to ski and has a big terraced staircase to the left of the slope that’s similar to Meeks’ ender spot from ON3P 6
