| Review: | The Palm Springs Skateboard Park rules the street and vert. The city of Palm Springs and all involved with this project should be very stoked on the results of their efforts.
Features of the Palm Springs Skatepark include a Nude Bowl replica (kidney 4' shallow/ 10' deep with a foot of vert with coping and tile), a huge combination bowl run, and a massive tranny/street section. The flow of the skatepark is close to great and the concrete is smooth and fast. I could go on an on about this one but I will let the pictures do the talking on this one.
Bottom Line:
The Palm Springs Skatepark is in my mind the best overall skatepark that we currently have in SoCal. The overall execution of Design/Build has definitely raised the bar for future SoCal Skateparks. Tranny/pool bros as well as the street demons will not be disappointed. Road trip worthy for sure!! The only bummer about this skatepark is location (that is if you do not live in the area) and the desert heat which rages in Palm Springs during the late Spring and Summer Months.

Skateparks are becoming more common as Skateboarding grows as a sport in Southern California. A Skatepark Directory such as SoCal Skateparks can help you to find the best Skateboard Parks in Southern California. We have put this Skatepark Directory together so that skateboarders in Southern California can find skateboard parks easier. Skateparks are important to the foundation of skateboarding. In order for skateparks to remain vibrant in SoCal we have to do our best to make sure that the skateparks that are built here are going to be skateparks that our children will want to skate 20 years from now. We want this to be your first choice skatepark directory and hope that all of the skateparks listed here will help you to find your way.
