Back to back quadruple three-stair sets with decent flatground. The short distance between the stairs requiers quick feet and rapid speed, as only no-push lines are feasible here. Also a good chill spot, with big grass plains next to it. Minimal possibility of getting kicked out, but might have tourist overload during the summer.

Vabaduse V채ljak
Freedom Square is the meet up and warm up point for many Tallinn skateboarders. Even though the actual space is large and consists of many spots within the square, this segment is only about the best: the flatground and marble ledges next to the Independence War Victory Column. Large flatground area and the ledges are on a downward slope, perfect for lines. Getting kicked out is 50/50, but don’t skate the column as it has a silent alarm.
Underi ledge
Marie Under was a famous Estonian poet in the 20th century. Famous enough, to get this memorial built next to the National Library of Estonia. This spot features excellent long ledges: one horizontal and one with a slight downward angle. Also has a long bench for maximum chill factor. Kickouts during library business hours are common, but you usually get to skate it during the weekend.

Viru Keskus
Viru Keskus is a downtown shopping mall with an exterior area for general purposes. That general area happens to be really great for skateboarding. It has ledges, stairs and lots of sweet flatground. You will get kicked out within minutes during the malls business hours, which is til 9pm. If you take that into account, you can fully take advantage of this spot during the summer, when daylight lasts well into the late hours.
