Well, at least it's by the water and I guess where they had land! Because it's Sphon Ranch-designed, we're talking about a generous, $800,000 outdoor skateboarding facility here and what's more, unlike the Sphon Ranch park in Gainesville, this one has night lighting and thus is open to around ten at night. The variety and quality of skate terrain is impressive, there's a decent-sized bowl, handrails, stairs--good stuff all around. The local kids are pretty impressive too, really--you'll meet some skaters here who really rip. Check out TJ Gaskill's video on YouTube to see what I mean: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7FnE8w7jEPk To me, this is a great park but what really makes it is the night lighting and fact you can skate it after dark: it really extends the hours, especially in the summer.

They also have a stage there, but I do not know if they regularly have concerts there. All in all, a pleasant enough place and it does have a decent sized parking area.

This is something that can be controlled unless it's under covered. Other than this - the ramps are great. The roof/ceiling of the bleacher areas have graphics/ inappropriate things - but again, that's something that cannot be controlled and time consuming when it comes to maintenance. The playground is just a few hundred feet away and great for bringing your kids there and the older kids to then skate park

My only complaint is that with all the rain we keep having, the park does have some minor puddling. That's not a huge deal, but something to keep in mind. There are two giant umbrellas for shade with benches nearby. Also there is a playground and skatepark for your non four legged children too. I will definitely keep this place in mind when I need a back up park or change of scenery.

There is an adult workout station with "how to' instructions next to the kids portion of the park. It looked like you could get in a good workout while supervising your children on the playground.

Even though it seems small it draws the best people:skaters... a great spot to learn a trick. We've seen all types of skaters come thru from the legendary and current pros, to old skaters from the 70s like myself... and most of all, kids just looking to learn to sKate. If you are a beginner, best to go before noon.... after 1pm all the college, high school and middle school heavies take over. It's most crowded 3 hours before sunset. Though it's set up for street ... there is a fun 4' quarter pipe and C Bowl (small 2' half bowl ). If you are an old Skool skater, like I am ... I suggest you evolve and learn to skate some street obstacles ;) plenty of obstacles to help you evolve at this little park... as a person & a skater

You can see a part of the inside. I inserted Two dollars and pressed one of the labeled selections. Nothing came out. I held them in a few seconds longer. While looking at the windows, I was surprised to see a RAT crawl past the two Unlabeled windows. I went into the office and told them, that not only is the machine not working, but that there's RAT running around in there. They wouldn't pay me back, but they said they would place an OUT OF ORDER SIGN ON IT. They never did in the remaining two hours we were there. I'm guessing it's free money. Still, It's probably a good thing it doesn't work. Who knows what's all over those bottles kids would be drinking from. Dave M
