Hubba Hideout
Links
Hubba Hideout, located near Justin Herman Plaza on San Francisco's Embarcadero, was a legendary skateboarding spot renowned for its two sets of six stairs, flanked by concrete ledges. The spot gained its name from the Bay Area slang for crack cocaine, "hubba," reflecting its past as a hidden area frequented by illicit activity. As one of skateboarding's most iconic locations, Hubba Hideout became a proving ground for skaters in the '90s and early 2000s, where legendary tricks like Wade Speyer’s crooked grind and Eric Koston’s backside noseblunt were filmed for skate videos and magazines. Despite multiple efforts by the city to block access, including installing skate-stoppers, skaters continued to find ways to session the spot. By 2011, Hubba Hideout was demolished, but its impact on skate culture remains significant, with the term “hubba” now synonymous with any ledge leading down stairs in the skateboarding world.
