Types of Skate Parks

Skate Parks are a great way to create a sense of community within your neighbourhood. Attract local youth while also creating a landmark in your city. There are different types of Skate Parks, the major categories being Bowl Parks, Street Plazas, and Flow Parks. Within each of these categories there is always room for customization so you can create a unique park to fit your needs.

Bowl Parks

Bowl Parks are like swimming pools for skaters and are designed to improve the skating experience. Skaters can stay on their boards without having to push and the curved walls let them ride around the bowl or go back and forth. Skateboarding is a dynamic and ever-changing practice but bowl skating is at the heart of this sport’s roots. There are endless shapes and sizes of bowls, so you can always find one that fits your style.

Street Plazas

Street Plazas are designed to look and feel like skating on the street. They have obstacles that are styled like natural street terrain, such as stairs, railings, planters, and benches. This style of Skate Park has come to represent an important part of the urban scene, especially in cities with high populations of skateboarders. It creates a space where skaters can get together and enjoy their sport together as a community.

Flow Parks

Flow Parks have features of both Bowl Parks and Street Plazas. In a well-designed flow park, a skater can use the curved walls of Quarter Pipes and Bowls to build momentum and hit street obstacles like stairs, railings, and benches. Not sure which style skate park you’re looking for? Flow Parks are the best of both worlds, allowing you to cater to a wide range of ages and skill sets.

What are the Community Benefits of Skate Parks?

Skate Parks have numerous benefits for the community. They have been shown to promote physical activity and support mental health, they’re cost efficient to build, and can be used to spruce up unused community space, bringing new life to your neighbourhood. Building a Skate Park in your neighbourhood creates a space where local youth and members of the community can come together and foster new relationships through shared hobbies.

Our team will be with you from design to installation so the process goes smoothly no matter which style or size you decide.
