This spot is considered to be one of the most well known and hardest gaps in the skateboard community. Wallenberg is a giant 4 stair that measures 6 feet in height and 18 feet in length requiring a great deal of speed in order to clear it. It was first seen in Mark Gonzales' part in Blind's video "video days" where he ollied the gap. Since then it has had a few tricks performed down it, but due to it's massive size and the runway being cut shorter it has been only gapped by a select few. So few people infact that Thrasher hosted a contest at this spot with cash prizes for whomever could pull off some new tricks there. Chris Cole almost landed a tre flip that day, but later pulled it off in his video part for zero. Lindsey Robertson, Andrew Reynolds, and Darrell Stanton all pulled off new tricks down the set that day and Mark Gonzales ollied it again. Elissa Steamer attempted to ollie it, if landed she would have been the first female to do so.
Thrasher recently held a second contest, due to the fact that it would be demolished soon. Chris Cole stepped up the game and pulled off both a switch frontside flip and a backside 360. A lot of people stepped up that day including Cody Mcentire with a backside bigspin, Lindsey Robertson with a Backside Heelflip as well as much much more.
