Matt Hughes Skatepark

 Matt Hughes Skatepark

Myrtle Beach, South Carolina

33rd Ave North

After several generations of wood and metal ramps, MB has a fantastic concrete skatepark.  I was fortunate to meet a skater who works for Parks & Rec who filled me in on some deets.  The big section was done first and the build company, 5th Pocket Skateparks, built some of the smaller section ('A' frame hip, long ledge) as a bonus.  A QP was built later in front of the fence and in 2018, the bowl was added. The entire park is fantastic and has everything for curb lovers to ledge fiends.  Everyone I met was super nice ('Bomb hills, not countries', 'Sorry about our President') and even met a kid from Ontario.  There's a sweet local skate shop, DaVille, not far from the park. There no other park for about 1.5h in any direction so when it got busy, IT GOT BUSY😀
