skatepark review(s)


seven six two

Recommended Posts

both of these parks are 100% concrete

 

 

 

louisville extreme sports park --- yeah, i didn't think up the 'extreme' part so don't blame me. if any of you are for some reason in the louisville area you should check it out. there is plenty of transition to skate, the concrete is perfect, and there are even a few street things to skate. there is even a 24 foot full pipe, but it's taken over by old guys and it sucks anyway. i think it is a good park for young kids to old guys. plus, the park is lit and open 24 hours a day. wooooo. a definite plus.

 

bad sides of the park:

 

not enough street things to skate

overcrowdedness

too many little kids

too many bmx kids (half of which always seem to be looking for a fight)

too many people who don't know to skate a park without getting in the way

SKATE SLUTS* LOOKING FOR SKATER DUDES TYAAHH (which may or may not be a good thing for you.)

 

i give this park an 8 and a half out of 10 plus you might want to add some more if you like skate sluts*

jeffersonville skatepark --- if you're . . . for some reason in the jeffersonville indiana area (which is right across the river from louisville), their skatepark is worth checking out just once. it wasn't officially opened when i went, but we all skated it anyway. the concrete is nice, but everything is either way too steep, or the concrete ramps you drop in on are wavy and almost unskatable. actually, to be honest whoever built this park should be shot, because its placement of everything is pretty awful. even the ledges down the stairs are too high for most skaters. but it's a nice park to get away from the EXTREME overcrowdedness of the louisville park and check out once.

 

good side of the park:

 

it is built right next to the new jeffersonville pool, which has 2 slides. a perfect place to frequent for some southern indiana poon-tang.

 

and yeah the kids there are always pretty nice

 

 

i give this park a 3 and a half. the half point comes from the poon-tang capability directly related

 

 

 

*skate slut definition - girls who don't skate, but usually travel in small groups. they often wear "skate" clothing like billabong or some crappy punk rock t-shirt. they are their strictly to talk to "cute" guys with their other girl friends. will dump you for a better skater in a minute, so it is a strictly hit it and quit it drop it like it's hot situation. you have been warned.

 

 

 

 

 

 

below is a picture of louisville skatepark, although the angle can't show all the rest of the park.

Thanks for lifting that image from the BW site sucka! It's all good because I lifted it from someone else!

 

Seems really weird to me that all of a sudden there is like 6 skateparks in an hour radius of Louisville.

1.new albany park

2.the new one in jeffersonville

3.riot skatepark

4.new "extreme" park

5.Breslin

6.That one in Lexington

 

Back in the late 80's/early 90's you would have to search for the best ditches. The oxmoor ditch and plainview ditch where the hot spots!

 

old design conceptions....not 100% accurate

I was aty the new luisville park friday night when it first opened just because I wanted to see what it was like and jesus christ was it crowded. I never knew this city had so many old farts on powell parelta decks and skate rats with boards bigger than them. I would say give it a month for the novelty of the park to wear off and it wont be as bad.
