Blind Bowl - Manhattan, New York, U.S.A.

Invite Only!

Another Kessler/Merk built bureaucratic waste of space. It is really cool, and I got to skate it once, but you can only skate there if the owner knows you and it is after hours only. They use it as a sunglass gallery during the day.

It is a really tight oval shaped 5' deep skatelite bowl, with pool coping and tile all around. It is backed up to a wall in the building which provides a giant vert wall with a sit out that juts out in a really tight area. It is great fun, but they are really uptight. The owners were actually talking about not letting anyone skate the bowl with out Grindking trucks, because the kingpins were scratching the coping up. What kind of pu..y sh.. is that? Another border-line Republican Control seeking move by the lame NYC skate scene.
