Lunch Money Skatepark

Lunch Money (https://lunchmoneyskatepark.org/) is a little indoor non-profit skate shop / skatepark located in Washougal WA. (421 C St Suite 5B, Washougal, WA 98671) Their whole thing is to give kids a place to skate who don’t have any money which is pretty cool. The park itself is pretty small with a street course that is flanked by a 5ft quarter pipe with some inclined flats, a fun box, a pyramid hip with a ledge and a fun little wood bowl that’s about 2ft. It’s a good spot if you’re just learning or trying to figure out rock & roles or something like that.

Heath Eiland and Morgan Moss BMX Skate Park (House Park)

Heath Eiland and Morgan Moss BMX Skate Park also know by the locals as House Park is located in Auston Texas at 1213 Shoal Creek Blvd, Austin, TX 78701 . That’s right Kids I have official ventured outside of the Northwest to check out some other parks. Ok not really but we where in the area and had to check out some parks as part of our trip. The park is pretty fun and consists of a fairly big street section that I actually did not hit up but there is a nice long quarter pipe that’s about 4ft tall in the street part that’s kind of fun and a really fun big bowl section that I spent most of my time skating. After talking to some of the locals I guess the bowl was designed for the BMX’ers as there is a huge bike scene in Austin, but it skates really well. Anyways It ranges in size from about 6ft to up about 10ft at a nice half bowl with some oververt carve section and the entire bowl has a nice flow to it with the concrete and coping being in pretty good shape for its age. if you are in A...

Silverton Skatepark

Silverton Skatepark in Silverton OR ( W Main St, Silverton, OR 97381 ) is a cool spot. The park is about an hour and half south of Portland Or. Built by Dreamland this 8,500 sq. ft. park is super smooth with really nice concrete. (Dreamland does great surface in my experience) The park consists of a street section that has two stair gaps, one with a handrail, one with a ledge, and a ledge drop flanked by two inclined transitions that lead down the beautiful bowl section. This section consists of two bowls that are spined with a wall ride that is coped across the two bowls. They range in heights, but they average 4.5ft to about 8ft or 9ft and the wall ride spine. The copping is great and easy to lock onto and slides great, the concrete is super smooth and fast. There are a lot of fun lines between both the bowls here, so this spot is definitely worth the drive.

SkateParks

Portland Oregon (and its surrounding areas) is surprisingly a great skateboarding town, PDX “is the first city in the world to have a comprehensive master plan for skateboard park development. SPS conceived of and advocated for a Skatepark System Plan in 2001. It was adopted by Portland Parks & Recreation's skatepark advisory committee and carefully applied to existing park sites over a 24-month planning and public input period, and ultimately supported and passed by Portland’s five elected officials, its city council on August 3, 2005” 1 City council supported and passed a plan for the creation of 19 parks in Aug 2005, But since then more have been supported and built in Portland and the surrounding metro areas. I have found over 100+ parks within 200 miles of Downtown Portland OR, where the majority of them are located, the furthest South West being in Reedsport OR, furthest North in Brier WA, And the furthest East in Ellensburg WA. A few of them are indoors private pay to s...
