10 TYPES OF SKATEPARKS EVERY SKATER HATES! 

"scroll back up to smash that like button yurrr" -Tony Hawk

I just did my first perfect ollie last night it felt so good

When I was a kid, the only "skate park", that was accessible to me was barely a skate park. It was a damaged concrete surface, which had one wooden ramp and one rail, which was not screwed into the ground and tended to fall over whenever touched. Additionally, the "skate park" was also used by the town to store cut off branches from trees until they were picked up and brought somewhere, so the ground was always full of branches and whatnot. It was really awful to skate and dropping in from the ramp was basically all you could realistically do.

I was heartbroken when I found out my home town park got destroyed it was probably my favorite small skatepark and I don’t think I’ll ever find a park that can give me the same amount of joy that 1 did not saying all parks suck now but the mellow chill session without too much commitment I don’t think I’ll find that feeling again

My local skatepark Is one of them 5000!! Also I'm early

I once searched up where the nearest skatepark to me is. The park wasn’t new to me and I never saw a skatepark there. After searching around, I found a concrete circle on the ground surrounded by grass. It had a path leading up a hill to a sign explaining the safety measures of the “skatepark”. That was literally the skatepark, they didn’t even try

The modern skatepark at 07:43 is „Landhausplatz“ in Innsbruck, Austria. I’ve been there September 2021 - cool spot tbh. But I really hated the cracks and at parts the concrete is really rough and takes away speed. Also I hurt my ankle really bad over there lol As of skatepark preference a skatepark over no skatepark. Where I come from we have quite a few shitty ones - so I’m happy as long as it‘s skate-able

The two skateparks in my city are almost completely different One is a very smooth ground but has nothing on it besides two ramps and a manual pad The other one is very cracky and is filled with stuff but both of them have trees close to them so both of them are covered in leaves most of the time And it rains all the time and the closest indoor park is a 2 hour drive Edit: I am aware that I can bring a broom, I mostly walk/skate to the skateparks anyways. I’m a idiot but not that much of one

My skatepark was built back in the 80s. It has so much graffiti that you can’t even see the concrete, the biggest problem is the ramps haven’t been fixed in YEARS. Some ramps you can’t even ride because it might as well be gravel.

my favorite skateparks are those who are build under a bridge or a roof (not indoor) because you can go there whenever you want even if its raining or snowing

The park i go to is 18 years old, its still pretty fresh and has no graffitti

Had a pretty cool DIY close to my home. The DIY was used a lot by the skating community and a local massive skatepark decided to buy the place and they remodeled it to make it a real skatepark that was free for use. The skatepark was really cool, it included features you would only find in skatepark created by the community, but it was made by professional. That shit was pretty awesome 😁

Unfortunately I live in Paris so the closest thing I have to a backyard skatepark is a tech deck ramp

The local skaters in my city started the 24th st diy. Which is their own diy skatepark on old unused tennis courts that were side by side. They had ramps, kickers, rails, curbs and other stuff. But the city tore it down due to safety concerns but they ended up rebuilding it using 2 of the 4 courts and it was made using the help of contractors, well known skaters in the area that made the first diy and other volunteers. It ended being something really amazing and the city closes down the street for special events.

"10 TYPES OF SKATEPARKS EVERY SKATER HATES!", 4:42 "DIY skate parks are definitely my favourite type of skate park". OKay bro if u love them so much why say every skater hates them???

I’m relatively new to skating in fact I’m waiting for my new board to arrive in a couple weeks (stupid Amazon 1 day after prime expires) and I’m addicted to your content

"ten skateparks that every skater hates" *shows every skaters favourite park*

10:53 that’s my local! Hella fun skatepark, only time it gets this crowded was when it opened which is when the picture was taken, or during a Jam event or comp, also is home to one of the best hip jumps in the world, Lakeside skatepark is the name, but most people call it snakeside cause there’s always a bunch of little kids.

I love that u showed the indoor park in sweden where I was working at for 2 years. The skatepark that’s inside a mountain

i live in a small town and we have an outdated bowl with a box in the middle and a brand new pump track that wasnt really designed for skating. I really love the vids keep up the good work watching you videos motavated me to get a skateboard and start skating last week

It would be cool if they just built a massive skatepark in the middle of town

Yay, another video, keep up the great work!

My friend had a little wooden halfpipe in his backyard in 1995, maybe 6ft tall. It was warped, splintery, and uneven in spots, but we felt like kings.

"types of skateparks every skater hates" - *proceeds to list every style of skatepark in existence*

Literally the first skatepark ever in my country was finished like a week ago

Im from a small australian town and we were sick of being able to only hit spots for 10minutes before police/security would arrive, so we built one under the local water tower back in 99 🤣 Needed to shovel all the bird crap off the ground before every session, if it didn't stop you rolling you'd fall on it and your grazes would get all infected. The struggle was real 🤣🍻

The one in kerikeri, nz was well ahead of its time for the early 90s. I remember the main ramp being 15ft. Was probably smaller though

my local park is the Source Park down in Hastings, it’s gotta be the best park I’ve ever been to even if it is underground. the Boyley Park is a smaller, public park up the hill and I like going there for a bit of a free, open-air change. would defo recommend them both :)

i found a skatepark that was a low budget but honestly it was a great skate park it had a vert ramp quarter pipe and more and it was in semi good condition

Who els is watching this right after getting bodied by a pebble or just me ?

My favorite skatepark is Ann Van skatepark in Hillsboro NJ. It is a really nice DIY, seems like a professionally built park. The street section is really chill and awesome. There is a Trans section that needs work but there is a great mini ramp and there is also a perfect concrete bull.

#11 commercial roof tops. We had a gap between buildings that cops couldn't jump. Carried so much plywood n kickers up 2 story ladders.😂🍻

My favorite skatepark is my local haha

i have a theory of how a 2 ft spine transfer ends up going to vert. i'm used to hearing that the designers were going for the shallow end of the pool type feel which is a good cop out ill admit. the real reason is more like ,they don't skate, they found a transition radius that worked on say a 6ft quarter. they use their auto cad or other architect software and just scale it down and you end up with a harsh bank. these can be fun but when the whole park is a half clam shell that is way to wide in diameter to carve mostly because of the harsh transitions , a spine transfer in the middle and another straight harsh bank on the other side. the middle is about 3.5 ft and the sides are shorter. pretty much your options are skate the thing like your doing wall rides the whole time or get a really short board with tiny wheels. if you think this would be a bunch of fun im telling you guys if i brought you there you would be bummed. if anyone can explain what happened in the design phase here if different then my theory please tell me so i can learn from it. then you have the white collar guy that thinks he can do anything a pro can and usually messes all the way up and is to arrogant to admit they messed up and the pros are more qualified. i hate that guy lol

Please dont hate on me but I am a scooterer, but honestly how could people hate this channel.

3:26 here in Sweden, Only skateparks that are indoors have opening hours, the outdoors ones are free to go to at any time.

theres a multi story skate park thats being built near where i live cant wait to try it out!

A skatepark was recently built about 30minutes (driving) away from where I live ... All my life the only thing I've had is a gravel road, so I'm finally learning to skate

You should see the skatepark in my city. The floor is built with cement.. only the ramp and the box are built with concrete. And they removed rails so there is some annoying bumps in the middle of the way

At 6:17 those are my hometown skateparks ramps at a different location when it closed down. That’s wild!!!

i have a skatepark really near to my school like you go to school court on PE, and you go up stairs, open gate and boom, skatepark and the best thing about it, is that last year it looked like trash bad ramps, many rocks and holes and now it's new, shiny and beautiful

:20 3rd is my local park in Michigan! haha cool, awesome video.

I like how he was rambling on how good backyard parks are

Lol the ribbon cutting at 5:37 is at the Frisco, Colorado skate park. Excellent park for sure!

The only skatepark around when I was growing up was a tiny one in the local park. It did have a bowl, but besides that it had a rail, a 3 stair and one quarter pipe. It at least had enough flat ground to practice tricks, but it was mostly flat ground. It wasn't free or open very often either for some reason. Now there's a big new park in the next city over that got opened this year that's got everything which would have been amazing as a kid.

7:53 is the state library of victoria or just state to us locals hahah, its a super popular skate spot with such a good wallride and like 4 different stairs its really fun but we get kicked out alllll the time

In my small city there’s 2 out door skateparks and one indoor skatepark with terrible hours. One of the out door ones is just a bowl but the other is one of those decent small ones. Nobody goes to either of the outdoor ones so it’s nice to be able to have a secluded area to practice.

I don't have any skatepark so I just go to closed road near me with my dog. It's always a blast to learn tricks there and skate while my dog runs

8:38 i actually broke in to this skate park when i was about ten, my moms friend had told us about it. at this time it wasn't open to the public but was fully developed we went in through a cut in the chain fence surrounding it. bunch of like 15-17 yr old had made the cut in the fence and where skating the park

You showed a short glimpse of a park near me it is the Hessville one now it has a lot more around it

I dont know if this is just a thing from where im from but when its winter we spray ice on the ramps to make it more slippery, it allows for cool drifting kind of tricks and grinding awesome

I’m pretty sure my town have at least 3 skateparks that have almost nothing and are run down at the same time, I just ride around my house on the streets because they just aren’t fun. I would love to have a plaza skate park because those would fit my personality perfectly

The website for the parks and recreation company here in Bismarck has an entire page for skate parks for a single skate park, but it’s still a pretty good looking park, I’ll have to go there when I get into skating

I live in a small town so I don't really see that many skate parks but I'm more into parkour and stuff but I really like your videos they're cool give me cool information about skating

The footy of the Nude Bowl definitely tugged at my heartstrings a little bit, I used to live in Desert Hot Springs right around the corner from there and had a 4wd Chevy Blazer that could get me there any time I wanted. I do gotta say the DIY, when done right, is the best type of skatepark. It's made by committed skateboarders who are doing this shit for negative profit, it's a labor of love always. At the same time I also was in a band with a guy who lived in Landers and did concrete, and he had a backyard spot that was really sick. Very narrow and limited and it was hard to get a good run up to most of the features, but it was a really great little park that more than made up for it on account of its purpose. I had a lot of great times there shredding it up with my buddies before or after a jam sesh

I just landed my first clean 50/50 and it felt sooooo good😊

I just started skating and finding these types of vids are the best

6:32 Yea, that’s true, a fun indoor park ( that was rll cool ) was eventually closed and replaced whit an outdoor park which looked like it was from 1960…

4:47 is that the cherry brook diy in jersey? love that place

I don't skate but your editing and style is entertaining enough to get me

2:01 my fav is flo skatepark Nottingham uk cus it has the biggest vert in gb

Seen that thumbnail obstacle so many times and I low key want to skate it it looks fun

My skate park is small with a bent flat bar broken and grassy asphalt as the ground with on quarter pipe, pyramid and drop in ramp and a few grind benches

My fav: 105 E Water St, New Albany, IN 47150 / New Albany Flow Park / 4.7 stars, very big!

Love your vids❤❤❤❤

if you live in the uk near the leeds kinda area, go to mickelfield skatepark if you like bowls as it is just bowls

9:00 the skatepark in mollala oregon, we(the skaters there) used to manly skate in front of the church parking lot because the park was so bad. recently i went back there to find they put up a new rules sign, attached with the same size bolt as is on skate trucks, so i could use my skate tool to take it down. for anyone wondering, to the left of the shot on the other side of the park there's a pyramid, and that's it.

I started skating recently, about this week on monday, and i just hit my first drop in on saturday. i'd say im a quick learner.

I'm on vacation from Boston to the mid south, western TX. It's 80 degrees for a week, and there are a dozen or more mid sized and small parks around here. Werd!

This is so cool!

I go to an indoor skatepark every week here in the uk. They have a girls night which is really fun!

most parks don´t have a toilet or a small roof. what to do if it rains, or the brown flood is coming? what is whit lighting in the evening?

I have several skateparks in my region but as I see, most of the skaters gather around the region's main city skatepark. It is small, made by the city, concrete floor - wood parts and metal for the geometry and Half-Pipe. It ain't much, but a lot of peeps gather there: skateboards, BMX, inline skates and... scooter kids. Yet, it is seems like it's the "best park" around my town.

In my City we have *2* Skateparks one is a good small one and the other is *tha Bowl* wich is just a Oval hole in the floor with a flat rail on half a side

my favourite thing ab the diy ones is that they were made by actual skaters so they know what skaters actually like unlike some other parks

My local skatepark is from the early 2000s pretty outdated but there's some skate spots downtown where the skatepark is but no skate shops

lol I just moved to a village that has a tiny box piece, as if its some sort of skatepark xD! so yeah youre totally right lol, seen it a lot throughout the netherlands

We used to have mostly parks that are old and stupid dimensions and the ones that are barely even a skatepark with movable tiny ramps. Recently a lot of nice new ones have been build, but still lacking good rails and stuff

6:51 weird looking stair set that is my local skatepark lmao skate it all the time new touch the hubbas though

the only nearby skatepark that I go to has asphalt ground that is so rough that you can just bail because of the ground and the obstacles are placed on the ground whit those metal plates and there are super big cracks between obstacle and ground

love ur vids

I have been skating for a year and I have a local skatepark in el centro California. The skatepark is called Sidewinder skatepark-el centro California:)

I got the outdated skatepark, it's a bit hard to learn in but still really fun

Wow, congrats! 🎉

i live in a middle sized town in bulgaria and our skatepark is a mix of a concrete skatepark and a diy skatepark which is kinda weird but its still fun

Skated with this guy before. Super nice.

0:19 Lol that's my local park, it's in a tiny town in Iowa I'm surprised to see it herr

0:27 That's linda vista, was my local for some years

My friend has a backyard concrete bowl which was really sick to skate when I visited his house but he lives very far away

Finally you post

There was one quiet curios skatepark close to my elementary school. It wasnt really a skatepark, I would call it a "lonely bowl". It was just a bowl. It wasnt really big either, but I saw some kids skating there so it was probably usable.

great vid good help for futer

my locals 5 metal ramps cramped into a small space that are essentially unskatable since it rains 24/7 in the uk💯🙏🏻

in my city theres not a lot of skateparks theres only 2 and fortunately they are both kinda close to me one of them is a small skatepark which i havent been to yet (with a skateboard) and it seems fun to ride its like 1.5km away and a big one which is like 3-4 km away and im going there in like 35 minutes so i dont really have that much of a choice to select

my fav skate park is LA TB10 calafornia its a lonley skate park with very smooth ground and has a pretty nice half pipe

I have a small skate park near me and it’s really nice it’s fun to ride at because there are very little people that go there

3:34 mine is the gold hill one in Central point, OG

there are so many skateparks here in florida i see one at almost every other park i go to my favourite is lot 11 its underneath a highway

All im saying come to kings norton skatepark birmingham uk in the summer of 2022 we've got an indoor close too and a beautiful diy only 2 trainstops away in Selly oak its worth it plus the locals are amazing

In Greece we mostly have DIY parks and most of them are named on the map like chaidari DIY skatepark
