EZ-7

EZ-7 is a famous skate-spot located in Houston, Texas, USA.[1] The EZ-7 is easily recognized by its large amount of graffiti covering the drainage ditch.

It is actually a drainage ditch located in northwestern Houston. It has been used by skateboarders since the early 1970s and has gained in popularity.[2] Eventually a skate park, named the Watonga Skate Park was built on the adjacent property as part of Watonga Park.[3] It is the location of the annual "Turkey Jam", which is a skateboarding jam session held during the week of Thanksgiving. It has been held annually at the EZ-7 since 1983.[4]
