Longview Skatepark, located at 28th/Washington Way in Longview WA could definitely be on an episode of David Gravette’s “worst Skateparks”. The park built by Grindline ( which is surprising as their parks normally rock ) is built on what I think is an old tennis court and the concrete is pretty rough and consists of a lot of flat box ledges, a curved ledge, a quarter pipe that has two sloped ledges with angle iron with a little step-down gap in between, a concrete spined quarter, a pyramid hip, some flat bars, curbs and some various other hips, loges, gaps and obstacles floating around the area. It’s actually probably not that bad for people that like to skate street, but I am more of a transition skater “bowls and half pipes” so I was not into it at all but hit it up if you are in the area and let me know what you think.
This blog is about documenting the many parks that are within 200 miles of Portland Oregon and my progress after getting back into skateboarding after 17 years.
