Skate Park Review: Palm Springs, CA

When most people think of Palm Springs, this is what they picture:


But when we go to Palm Springs, we see this instead!

 

If you're in Palm Springs, you should definitely hit this skate park! This is a skate park that is really meant to be shredded up.

POSITIVES: This skate park has lots of space and a huge variety of places to do tricks, including ramps, verts, boxes, rails and pools.

There are really big slopes for gaining speed

The people who skated there were really nice too. They don't just stand in the middle of pools not doing anything. If you ask them to move, they move until you have gone.




NEGATIVES:  Palm Springs gets really hot! Every 10 minutes you have to take a break and sit in the shade and drink water so you don't get a sunburn and dehydrated. Aside from this, the Palm Springs skate park is one of the best I've been to, besides the Verdugo skate park, the one I usually go to.

WHO WOULD LIKE IT?:  I don't think it would be ideal for beginning beginners because there aren't really very many easy places to skate. People who like to do all different types of skating in one park would like it here.
