Have ever wished that you could find a skatespot no one knew about.......one that who made it seemed as though they built it for your board only..like many ..we will try to tell you the exact location of theses killa spots.


Kona Skate Park - Jacksonville, FL - Website
Kona skatepark is the probably the oldest private skateboard park in the US. the place first opened up in the late 70's, and it still has the original concrete snake runs intact and skateable. This skateboard park also features 2 street / x-games courses, a spine ramp, 80 ft wide vert ramp, and a gnarly concrete pool.

Black Pearl Skate Park - Cayman Islands - Website

Woodward West Camp- Stallion Springs, CA Website
The Woodward West Skate Camp is the second of two major Skate Camps to open in Southern California in the last year. This skateboard camp will be a great place to learn to skate for new kids getting into the sport as well as a great place for skaters to improve by learning from the pros. The skate camp features a competition style vert ramp and street course as well as what looks like a killer concrete skate park. Unfortunately, Woodward West does not offer any 1 day sessions So, if you want to check this place out you will either need to know someone or enroll for a week long session which starts at around $1,000!

Encinitas YMCA - Encinitas, CA - Website
Whether you know it or not, you've seen the Magdalena Ecke Family YMCA skateboard park a million times. This is the site of one of the most famous big vert ramps in the history of skateboarding. 80' wide by 13 ft tall, 19 ft roll-in, extensions and "floating platform" - big, big, big! It's been in a zillion ads. But the best part about this park- at least for most of us - is everything else.

Playstation State park - London, UK - Website
Underneath central London's busy Westway, close to where it crosses Portobello Road, lies the Playstation Skatepark. Because it's housed beneath the motorway it's classed an an indoor skatepark - in fact, the only one in london - but, of course, it benefits from the breeze that blows through the concrete pillars that support the structure. It's a big park that houses the capital's only vert ramp. There's something for everyone here, and beginners can benefit from the sturday morning instruction sessions.

Millennium Skatepark - Calgary, Alberta - Website

This free 15,000 sq. ft. concrete skatepark facility was completed in May 2003 and has earned rave reviews from everyone who has the opportunity to take advantage of this skateparks' awesome layout. Most locals seem to prefer skateparks that are free.
This skateboard park was built by Grindline Skateparks and is definitely one of the top skateparks in Colorado. Most skateparks Grindline constructs are free and unsupervised. They have built in a near infinite number of lines and unique features make this spot skateable for days. Not to mention its free.

Louisville Extreme Park - Louisville, KY - Website
