Hot Spot isn’t as “hot” as it used to be with the Vancouver Skate Plaza built right next to it, but it still offers up some decent street for those up to the task. It’s infamous ledges have been filmed for some of the most memorable lines. The main attractions are 2 ledges on both sides of a walkway (offering love to goofy and regular skaters), the big 5 step downstairs, and a giant curved ledge that most ams have filmed something on. Hot Spot has had more to offer before, but the lower levels have been recently knobbed. Although, I must give the parks board a thumbs up for some of the most original knobs I’ve ever seen.

Just a side note, make sure you take a look around before you start skateboarding. The area is known for its drug users, so look out for needles and anybody trying to jack your stuff.
