| Review: | The Paramount Skatepark is one of the many skateparks in this general area that is worthwhile to session. For starters, the flow of the park is good as long as you have some freedom to skate without running into the many roller bladers that frequent the park. The concrete is smooth and relatively fast with 3 to 7’ banks capped with fast round metal coping. The one 7’ bank has a squared metal coping affixed. For street skaters, there are plenty of ledges, rails, and a 6 stair that will keep you entertained. For those who prefer to skate transition, the 5’ capsule bowl, which has a 2’ extension on the north side of the capsule, offers good transitions, fast well laid metal coping, and is a nice bowl if you are looking to have a mellow tranny session. Also, the capsule is situated well for transfers to and from the reservoir section of the park.
Bottom line – Good times to be had - check it out for yourself - MH –

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.
