Cannon Beach Skatepark located at 97145, E 2nd St, Cannon Beach, OR 97110 is a cool little park. Built by Placed To Ride Skateparks (PTR) in 2018 it was a rebuild of an existing park in that location. The park consists of a nice flow bowl section and a street course. The Bowl section ranges in size from about 4ft up to about 7ft at its tallest with nice concrete throughout the bowl. The taller section has pool copping with a flat extension that rounds out at the top kind of like a curb. The rest of the bowl has nice pockets that kick you out nice to the other sections with standard copping that grinds nicely throughout. The street section has a role-in, some hips, flat ledges, a handrail, a rounded pyramid hip and some quarter pipes on the perimeters of the park. All around this park is pretty fun but watch out for some sand in the pockets as you can slide out if you’re not careful but that was not much of an issue.

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
