Newmarket Outdoor Skatepark

 Newmarket Outdoor Skatepark

@ Magna Centre, 800 Mulock Dr.

Newmarket just got what all skatepark users deserve ( & will now demand). This park features all the basics and several versions of each (rails, ledges, quarters) and gives you almost everything else you could want.  The large park is well spaced, with well spaced obstacles, lots of curbs and a sick bowl. There's also a gentle ramp to the top for WCMX. There are 2 shaded seating areas, a waterbottle filling station, a solar power charging station (& I've heard lights are coming. shhh!)

Lakeshore, ON

 Lakeshore, ON

Lakeshore sits on the south shore of Lake St. Clair. Two communities have skateparks (so far).

Belle River

Optimist Park on Notre Dame St

Stoney Point

Stoney Point Community Park, 880 Comber Sideroad

Stoney Point Skatepark - Lakeshore, ON

 Stoney Point Skatepark

Lakeshore, ON

In Stoney Point Community Park, 880 Comber Sideroad.

Similar issue as Belle River. Rough concrete, bad ramps, but the gap between the deck and the coping on this mini was full of pebbles that popped out when you rode the ramp. Rock farts anyone.







Belle River Skatepark - Lakeshore, ON

Belle River Skatepark
Lakeshore, ON
Optimist Park (775 Tecumseh Rd) next to the OPP Div. on Notre Dame St.
Every problem a modular park could have, all in one single park.
Really rough asphalt.
Rust
Protruding bolts.
Big cracks.
Knee high flat bar.
Poorly placed obstacles.
This place has it all!!!

The big box was placed on a concrete pad.

Huge, wheel swallowing cracks on the approach.

Bumpy


K, how do I hit the stairs?



 

Skate TF & Skate Temple

 Skate TF & Skate Temple

2491 Dougall Ave & 1664 Tecumseh Rd E

Skate TF is a sweet indoor park with a street section, beginners area and a spined mini-ramp.

Skate Temple is the attached Skate Shop. Update - Skate Temple has moved to 1664 Tecumseh Rd E.    

I don't know why, but it looks the same.


Check 'em Out.
