Portland Oregon Skate parks

Holly Farm Skatepark – ( 10819 SW Capitol Hwy, Portland, OR 97219 ) In SW Portland is a 2,800 sq ft oblong concrete bowl, it was designed and built by Dreamland Skateparks . The park is in a residential area off of SW Capitol Highway and when I was there it had a ton of scooter kids and families with strollers milling about in and around the bowl. The Park itself starts with an inclined run that has brick inclines on either side that gradually increases in height as you head to a steep incline that has a half bowl to the back that leads into the main bowl itself. The Bowl ranges in height, with the lowest being around 5ft and the tallest around 9ft or 10ft with a kicker step being on the taller wall. In the center of the bowl is a 4ft curved spine that faces the inclined entrance into the bowl making a kind of curved halfpipe on the back end of the spine that faces the back wall.

Gateway Skate Spot ( 10502 NE Wasco St, Portland, OR 97220 ) in NE Portland and is a pretty cool spot. Designed by Grindline Skateparks and built by Evergreen Skateparks   t his park is fairly new being built in 2018 and has exceptionally smooth and fast concrete and is easy to slide out if you eat it. The park starts off with a big flat area that connects to the rest of the public park via smooth sidewalks that lead to some gap ledges near some new construction that is not part of the park but worth hitting. The park itself consists a rather big half bowl, the transition is about 4ft or 5ft at its tallest, with smaller transitions around 2ft or 3ft.  The top of the bowl has a handrail with a 3 stair gap, a ledge with metal edges, and two role-ins on either side.

Pier Park ( 10421 N Lombard St, Portland, OR 97203 ) is my local spot in St Johns OR and one of my favorites. Designed and Built By Dreamland Skateparks the park starts with a S-Curve section that leads down to the main park that runs down to Pier’s four main sections: a street section, a medium bowl, a small bowl, and a monster bowl with a full pipe in the center. This concrete park is in really good shape and rather fast, with 4 ledges, a stair gap, and three handrails.  Don’t expect to be able to slide out if you bail in the bowls, while the concrete is smooth it tends to just grab your pads and pull them down, I have fucked up my knees a few times. If at all possible I found its best to run out if you hang up or eat shit.
